L-Tyrosine

L-Tyrosine is precursors of the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and dopamine, both that regulate moods. Tyrosine acts as a mood elevator; a lack of adequate amounts of tyrosine leads to a deficiency of norepinephrine in the brain, which in turn can result in depression. Extra amounts of tyrosine in the diet may elevate brain levels of norepinephrine, improving neurotransmissions and doing away with depression. Tyrosine suppresses the appetite and helps to reduce body fat, it also aids in the production of melanin (the pigment responsible for skin and hair color) and in the functions of the adrenal, thyroid, and pituitary glands. Tyrosine attaches to iodine atoms to form active thyroid hormones. Supplemental L-Tyrosine has been used for stress reduction; research suggests it may be helpful against chronic fatigue. It has been used to help individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, allergies, and headaches, as well as persons undergoing withdrawal from drugs, including smoking and alcohol.


L-Taurine

L-Taurine is one of the most abundant amino acids in the body. It is found in the central nervous system, skeletal muscle and is very concentrated in the brain and in heart muscle. Taurine is synthesized from the amino acids methionine and cysteine, in conjunction with Vitamin B6. Women are more apt to be deficient in taurine since the female hormone estradiol depresses the formation of taurine in the liver. Taurine helps to stabilize cell membranes and seems to have some antioxidant and detoxifying activity. It helps the movement of potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium in and out of cells, minerals that help generate nerve impulses.


L-phenylalanine

L-phenylalanine is an essential amino acid. Once in the body, can also convert to another amino acid, tyrosine, which participates in synthesizing two key neurotransmitters that promote alertness: dopamine and norepinephrine. Through interaction with the central nervous system, it can elevate mood, decrease pain, aid memory and learning, and suppress the appetite. Phenylalanine reduces cravings for alcohol and has been used to relieve inflammation, low mood, PMS, migraine and other chronic pain. L-tyrosine can be converted by neurons in the brain to dopamine and norepinephrine (noradrenaline) hormones that are depleted by stress, overwork and certain drugs.


GABA

GABA stands for gamma-aminobutyric acid, and is the product of a biochemical decarboxylation reaction of glutamic acid by the vitamin pyridoxal, as well as from decarboxylase (GAD). GABA is required as an inhibitory neurotransmitter to block the transmission of an impulse from one cell to another in the central nervous system, which prevents over-firing of the nerve cells. It is also used for brain metabolism and to treat both epilepsy and hypertension where it is thought to induce tranquility in individuals who have a high activity of manic behavior and acute agitation. It has been suggested that a shortage of GABA may cause panic attacks, since an intake of tranquilizers can increase the level of GABA in the body. GABA may also be effective in treating PMS in women.


Guarana Seed Powder

European researchers began studying guarana (in France and Germany) in the 1940s. Early research documents Indians using it to cure fevers, headaches, cramps, and as an energy tonic. Guarana is used and well known for its stimulant and thermogenic action. Guarana is reputed to increase mental alertness, fight fatigue, and increase stamina and physical endurance. Presently, guarana is taken daily as a health tonic by millions of Brazilians, who believe it helps overcome heat fatigue, combats premature aging, detoxifies the blood, and is useful for intestinal gas, obesity, dyspepsia, fatigue, and arteriosclerosis.


CoQ10

Coenzyme Q-10 (CoQ-10) or Ubiquinol has become synonymous with increasing cellular energy. Many studies have shown that it has value in combating various forms of cardiovascular disease, reducing the number and size of some tumors and treating gum disease. In fact, according to the newsletter Nutrition News, it has extended the life span of laboratory animals up to 56%. CoenzymeQ10 is a fat-soluble vitamin-like substance present in every cell of the body and CoQ10 serves as a coenzyme for several of the key enzymatic steps in the production of energy within the cell. Coenzyme Q10 also functions as an antioxidant that is important in its clinical benefits.


Vitamin B2

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) is a water-soluble vitamin needed to process amino acids and fats, activate vitamin B6 and folic acid, and help convert carbohydrates into the fuel the body runs on—adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Under some conditions, vitamin B2 can act as an antioxidant.


Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin) is a member of the vitamin B complex. It contains cobalt, and so is also known as cobalamin. It is exclusively synthesized by bacteria and is found primarily in meat, eggs and dairy products. Vitamin B12 is necessary for the synthesis of red blood cells, the maintenance of the nervous system, and growth and development in children. Deficiency can cause anemia. Vitamin B12 deficiency, involving the degeneration of nerve fibers and irreversible neurological damage, can also occur.


Pantothenic Acid (Pantothenate Calcium D: Vitamin B5)

Pantothenic Acid is a B complex vitamin that is vital in normal growth and reproductive functions. Pantothenic Acid is a precursor of two coenzymes that are responsible for more than 100 metabolic functions in the body. Another name for Pantothenic Acid is its more commonly known name Vitamin B5. Vitamin B5 is needed to make the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. B5 vitamin is also essential in releasing energy from fats. Pantothenic acid also activates the adrenal glands. Vitamin B5 deficiencies have been reported in people that suffer from alcoholism. Pantothenic Acid also helps protect the body from stress.


Niacin (Vitamin B3)

Niacin also called nicotinic acid, niacinamide or nicotinic acid and is often referred to as vitamin B3. Niacin is derived from two compounds - nicotinic acid and niacinamide. Vitamin B3 is required for cell respiration, helps in the release of energy and metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, proper circulation and healthy skin, functioning of the nervous system, and normal secretion of bile and stomach fluids. It is used in the synthesis of sex hormones, treating schizophrenia and other mental illnesses, and is an excellent memory-enhancer.


Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine hydrochloride) 

Vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, is part of the B group vitamins, is water-soluble and is required for both mental and physical health. Pyridoxine is required for the balancing of hormonal changes in women as well as assisting the immune system and the growth of new cells. It is also used in the processing and the metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, while controlling mood as well as behavior. Pyridoxine assists in the balancing of sodium and potassium as well as promoting red blood cell production. It is involved in the creation of the nucleic acids RNA as well as DNA.


Vitamin B1 (Thiamine HCL)

Thiamin, also called Vitamin B1, is used in many different body functions and deficiencies. Yet very little of this vitamin is stored in the body, and complete depletion of this vitamin can happen as quickly as 14 days. Thiamin is a miraculous nutrient. Thiamin may enhance circulation, helps with blood formation and the metabolism of carbohydrates. It is also required for the health of the nervous system and is used in the biosynthesis of a number of cell constituents, including the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It is used in the manufacture of hydrochloric acid, and there-fore plays a part in digestion. It is also great for the brain and may help with depression and assist with memory and learning. In children, it is required for growth and has shown some indication to assist in combating arthritis, cataracts as well as infertility.


Choline (Bitartrate)

Choline's metabolic significance is closely interrelated to that of methionine, and methyl-folate. Yet choline is at times treated by some nutritional specialists as a stepchild in nutrition. Choline assists in controlling weight as well as cholesterol levels, keeping cell membranes healthy and in preventing gall-stones. It is also most useful in the maintenance of the nervous system, assisting memory and learning, and may help to fight infections. Choline is critical for normal membrane structure and function. Choline is the major precursor of betaine, and it is used by the kidneys to maintain water balance and by the liver as a source of methyl-groups for methionine formation. It is also used to produce the important neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It assists in nerve impulse transmission, gallbladder regulation, liver functions and lecithin production.


L- Carnitine (Vitamin BT)

Carnitine is really not an amino acid, but because of the close structural similarities, it is normally classified as an amino acid, and is also known as vitamin BT. It is available as D-carnitine, L-carnitine, DL-carnitine as well as acetyl-L-carnitine. But L-carnitine is the most common type. L-Carnitine is synthesized from the essential amino acids lysine and methionine, but enough vitamin B1 (thiamine) and B6 (pyridoxine) must be available. Unlike a true amino acid, it is not used in protein synthesis or as neurotransmitter, but is used for long-chain fatty acid transport and is required for entry of these long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria of the cell, as well as for the removal of short-chain organic acids from the mitochondria, which frees the intra-mitochondrial coenzyme. It is therefore important for the energy supply within the cell, as well as muscles, to assist in preventing fatty build-up in areas such as the heart, liver, and skeletal muscles.


Beet Juice Powder

Raw beets contain phosphorus, sodium, magnesium, calcium, iron, and potassium as well as vitamin A, niacin, folic acid, and biotin. When these nutrients are captured in a juicing process, they remain in a form that is much easier to assimilate than synthetic nutrients. The iron in beet juice, in particular, is noted for being more easily assimilated than other forms of iron supplements. Potassium, in particular, is essential for all cellular functions. Along with sodium, it regulates water balance and acidity-alkalinity balance in the blood and tissues. It is often depleted with aging, in degenerative disorders, and with a highly refined diet that is high in sugar. Historically, beetroots have been known to have medicinal properties, specifically anti-hepatotoxic effects, that is, the ability to counter damaging effects on the liver. For the past three or four centuries, it has been thought to be beneficial for the detoxification of the liver, and it was used for the treatment of hepatitis. The exact mechanism by which beets support the liver remains unknown; however, theories suggest that they effectively limit fat deposits in the liver, probably because of their high concentration of betaine. Betaine is often referred to as the lipotropic factor because of this ability to help the liver process fats. Betaine also plays a role in reducing homo-cysteine. High levels of homocysteine are associated with cardiovascular disease, so betaine is thought to support cardiovascular health. Beets also contain biochanin A, a potential cancer-fighting agent.


Beta Carotene (Vitamin A)

Beta-carotene belongs to a group of plant compounds called carotenoids. These are the pigments that provide the yellow, orange, and red coloration in fruits and vegetables. Beta-carotene is the most abundant carotenoid in human foods and is generally thought to be the most important carotenoid for humans. Beta-carotene is a precursor to vitamin A and is changed in the body to vitamin A, or retinol. Enzymes in the intestines also convert beta-carotene to vitamin A whenever it is needed. In addition to being a precursor for vitamin A, beta-carotene is an important antioxidant that helps to prevent harmful free radical damage in the body.


Vitamin E (Mixed d-alpha Tocopherol)

Vitamin E has earned itself a reputation from spicing up a sex life to reducing wrinkles and combating old age. One of the most important functions of this vitamin is its antioxidant properties. Vitamin E is an essential fat-soluble vitamin that includes eight naturally occurring compounds in two classes designated as tocopherols and tocotrienols. Vitamin E is an effective chain-breaking, lipid-soluble antioxidant in biological membranes, and aids in membrane stability. Vitamin E protects the cells from oxidation, and neutralizes unstable free radicals, which can cause damage. This is done when vitamin E gives up one of its electrons to the electron deficient free radical, making it more stable. While Vitamin E performs its antioxidant functions, it also protects the other antioxidants from being oxidized. This antioxidant capability helps to prevent degenerative diseases including heart disease, strokes, arthritis, senility, diabetes and cancer. It also assists in fighting heart disease and cancers and is essential for red blood cells, helps with cellular respiration and protects the body from pollution. Vitamin E is also useful in preventing blood clots from forming and promotes fertility, reduces and/or prevents hot flushes in menopause. An increase in stamina and endurance is also attributed to Vitamin E.


Zinc (Citrate)

Zinc is one of the minerals men should never be without and has such a wide application in human health that everybody should ensure that they obtain enough of this humble trace element. It is necessary for a healthy immune system, and also fights skin problems such as acne and boils, and helps reduce the inflammation of sore throats. It is further needed for cell division, and is needed by the tis-sues of the hair, nails and skin. Zinc is used in the growth and maintenance of muscles. Children, for normal growth and sexual development also require zinc. It also seems as if zinc helps to control the oil glands, and is also required for the synthesis of protein and collagen that is great for wound-healing and healthy skin.


Chromium (Picolinate)

Chromium picolinate is a combination of the trace mineral chromium and picolinic acid. Picolinic acid is a natural metabolite (a naturally occurring product of metabolism) found in breast milk. Chromium sup-plied in this form is more easily absorbed and used by the body. Chromium is an essential trace mineral. Yet despite its natural prevalence, many Americans are simply not getting enough chromium in their diets. Chromium is critical to a healthy diet because it regulates the body’s insulin function, enabling its cells to perform many important functions, like metabolism, muscle building, and nervous system support. Here’s how it works: The body secretes insulin upon eating. This insulin then binds to cells, un-locking them so that they can absorb glucose, a form of sugar, out of the bloodstream. Once the glucose is absorbed, the cells use it as fuel to power all their necessary functions. This process cannot be performed effectively without chromium. Failure to receive the necessary chromium intake can lead to impaired insulin activity, or insulin resistance. When the body becomes insulin resistant, more glucose remains in your bloodstream, often getting stored away as fat rather than being burned for energy as intended. Proper chromium intake can ensure your insulin is functioning optimally. Along with healthy insulin function, chromium has been associated with improved brain chemical activity.


Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12)

The health benefits of Vitamin B12 or Cyanocobalamin include improved cell maintenance, DNA formation, heart health, relief from fatigue, high cholesterol levels, and anemia.


Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)

Vitamin C also known as, ascorbic acid, L-ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid, the antiscorbutic vitamin, L-xyloascorbic acid and L-threo-hex-2-uronic acidy-lactone, is a much talked about vitamin, with people claiming it as a cure-all for many diseases and problems, from cancer to the common cold. Yet, this miracle vitamin cannot be manufactured by the body, and needs to be ingested. Vitamin C is required in the synthesis of collagen found in connective tissues, the manufacture of hormones, and the conversion of cholesterol into bile acids. Vitamin C also enhances iron bioavailability. Ascorbic acid is a great antioxidant and helps protect the body against pollutants. Because vitamin C is a biological reducing agent, it is also linked to prevention of degenerative diseases such as cataracts, certain cancers and cardiovascular diseases.  Ascorbic acid also promotes healthy cell development, proper calcium absorption, normal tissue growth and repair such as the healing of wounds and burns. It assists in preventing blood clots and bruising, and strengthening the walls of the capillaries. Vitamin C is needed for healthy gums, to help protect against infection, assisting in clearing up infections and is thought to enhance the immune system and help reduce cholesterol levels, high blood pressure and preventing arteriosclerosis.


Magnesium (Oxide)

The utilization of CHERRY BO2MB's unique nutrients is further augmented with the addition of oxygen-rich Magnesium Oxide that enhances cellular metabolism and ATP energy production for improved cellular health. Magnesium helps in transporting glucose into each cell in the body. It is also very necessary for burning or oxidizing glucose for energy. For this reason, magnesium is essential for the body to properly metabolize carbohydrates. The crystalline lattice work of this unique molecule is unique because when combined with Vitamin C, the oxygen molecule is released so that it may be absorbed into the bloodstream to further enhance ATP energy production in the cells’ mitochondria.


Stevia

Stevia is a natural sweetener derived from the sweet-leaf plant. It’s 300x as sweet as sugar, so it only takes a small amount to produce the same sweet taste as cane sugar.  Stevia has been used as a sweetener in many cultures for centuries, but has only recently gaining acceptance as a sugar substitute in the United States. It was first introduced in the US in the mid 1990s as an herbal supplement. There are currently several sugar substitutes available on the market, so what makes Stevia unique? It has no carbohydrates, is a no-calorie sweetening substitute, it helps lower blood sugar levels, it has antibacterial properties and it assists in calcium formation to help strengthen bones.


Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)

Vitamin B2, also known as riboflavin, is one of the eight B-complex vitamins. Like other B vitamins, it plays a role in energy production in the body. Vitamin B2 is a water-soluble vitamin that is flushed out of the body daily, so it must be restored each day. It helps the body break down carbohydrates, pro-teins and fats to produce energy, and it allows oxygen to be used by the body. Riboflavin is also used for the development and function of the skin, lining of the digestive tract, blood cells and other vital organs.


L-Theanine (Green Tea Leaves)

Although tea can have as much or more caffeine than some coffees, it doesn’t have the same “speedy” effect. The reason is its secret ingredient, L-theanine. Research shows that L-theanine neutralizes the speedy, jagged, bad effects of caffeine without reducing its mind-energizing, fat-burning features. L-theanine’s effect on the brain can be visualized on an EEG. Brain waves are actually smoothed out—but not flattened out—by supplemental L-theanine. The body is relaxed, the mind is calmed, but no drowsiness occurs.


Ginseng Panax Root Powder

Asian Ginseng is one of the most highly regarded of herbal medicines in the Orient, where it has gained an almost magical reputation for being able to promote health, general body vigor, to prolong life and treat many ailments including depression, stress, diabetes, fatigue, aging, inflammations, internal de-generation, nausea, tumors, pulmonary problems, dyspepsia, vomiting, nervousness, and ulcers. Panax Ginseng is thought to be even more beneficial when taken with Ginkgo Biloba. Ginseng has been used to both stimulate and relax the nervous system. It increases capillary circulation in the brain and decreases the effects of stress.


Ginkgo Biloba Leaf 4:1 Extract

This ancient herb acts to enhance oxygen utilization and thus improves memory, concentration, and other mental faculties. The herbal extract has also been shown to significantly improve long-distance vision and may reverse damage to the retina of the eye. Studies have also confirmed its value in the treatment of depression in elderly persons. The ginkgo extract may provide relief for persons with headache, sinusitis, and vertigo. It may also help relieve chronic ringing in the ears known as tinnitus.


Selenium (Selenomethionine)

Selenomethionine is an amino acid-based type of organic selenium found naturally in food. Selenomethionine is more easily absorbed than non-organic forms of selenium such as selenate. Methionine is an amino acid, meaning it is a building block of protein. When you consume selenomethionine supplements, your body recognizes the selenium as the amino acid methionine and immediately incorporates it in into its protein stores. In fact, taking selenomethionine supplements results in plasma selenium stores twice as high as equivalent doses of non-organic selenium supplements such as selenate, according to the Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database. Selenomethionine is a potent antioxidant and immune system booster and it promotes both heart and liver health.


Glucoronolactone (DGL)

Glucuronolactone, also dubbed as DGL, 6-lactone, glucuronic acid lactone and D-glucuronic acid is a natural metabolite in the body. A metabolite is a resultant substance when glucose is metabolized in the liver. It has been shown in studies to increase energy, minimizing drowsiness and enhancing attentiveness and reaction time. It also improves mental ability and mood especially when taken with caffeine and L-taurine.


Yerba Mate Powder

Yerba mate is a traditional South American herb that’s been said to offer the strength of coffee, the health benefits of tea, and the euphoria of chocolate all in one nutritional ingredient. Yerba mate is well-known for providing an energy boost that’s been described as gentle, clean, and calm. Compared to the other most commonly used stimulants in the world — coffee, tea, kola nut, cocoa and guarana — Yerba mate delivers the most balanced energy boost. Yerba mate drinkers experience a state of alert wakefulness similar to that from coffee, but without coffee’s side effects. It rarely interferes with sleep and doesn’t cause the caffeine jitters. Athletes use it to enhance physical performance. It’s useful for people suffering from mental or physical fatigue, or from chronic fatigue syndrome.


Creatine Monohydrate Powder

Creatine monohydrate is a natural substance that turns into creatine phosphate in the body. Creatine phosphate helps make a substance called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP provides the energy for muscle contractions. Creatine may be the single most studied product in the history of dietary supplements. While not an amino acid itself, creatine is produced in the body from the amino acids arginine, glycine, and methionine.


Inositol (Vitamin B8)

Vitamin B8 or Inositol, as it is often called, contributes to the normal functioning of cells in our body. Vitamin B8 is present in various forms. The vitamin is also available with the names IP6 or myo-inositol. It is water soluble and is found in the brain, liver, heart, spleen, stomach and kidneys. At the cellular level, B8 assists in efficient breakdown of fats and transport lipids from the cells. Inositol also improves the levels of good HDL cholesterol, which channels smoother flow of blood through arteries. Because of its effective responses on neurotransmitters, inositol triggers the production of serotonin, a vital transmitter that controls moods. Because of the massive contribution to better working of neurotransmitters, inositol proves helpful in improving cognitive function.


Glycine

Glycine is the simplest non-essential amino acid. It is called glycine because it resembles the sweet taste of glucose (blood sugar) and glycogen (liver starch). Glycine is required for optimum growth and for creatinine synthesis, a compound that is present in muscle tissue and is utilized in the construction of RNA and DNA. It is conceivable that under some conditions, glycine might become essential in humans. Glycine is probably the third major inhibitory neurotransmitter of the brain; glycine therapy readily passes the blood-brain barrier. Research also indicates that glycine releases growth hormones. Glycine plays a key role in the development and quality of our skeletal muscles, tissues, and structural integrity. Glycine is essential for synthesis of nucleic acids, bile acids, and other nonessential amino acids within the body. Found in high concentrations in the skin and connective tissues, it is useful for repairing damaged tissues and promoting healing. Glycine is necessary for central nervous system function and a healthy prostate. It can help prevent epileptic seizures, since it inhibits neurotransmitters. It is useful in the treatment of manic (bipolar) depression. Clinical studies with individuals during acute manic attacks, calmness and cessation of the manic episode occurred within one hour. Patients taking lithium for depression have shown an increase in plasma glycine. Glycine is also effective for treatment of hyperactivity. Having the correct amount of glycine produces energy.
