Ingredients

Niacin (vitamin B3) is a water-soluble carbon compound important in the process of releasing energy from carbohydrates. It is needed to form fat from carbohydrates and to process alcohol. It comes in two basic forms – niacin (also called nicotinic acid) and niacinamide (also called nicotinamide). There is also a variation called inositol hexaniacinate. Since niacin contributes to the conversion of food into energy, it also promotes better circulation, lower cholesterol, and benefits the metabolism. Metabolism is an important physiological mechanism for losing weight. A more efficient metabolism usually burns more calories.

A second vitamin part of this supplement is thiamine (vitamin B1). Thiamine is also a water-soluble carbon compound needed to process carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Every cell in the body requires vitamin B1 to make the fuel the body runs on – adenosine triphosphate, which can fuel any exercise-related attempt to burn calories and lose weight. Site

This product also contains chromium chelate. Chromium chelate is an essential trace mineral that helps the body maintain normal blood sugar levels. It has been studied for its potential role in altering body composition. Preliminary research on animals, as well as humans, suggests that chromium increases fat loss and promotes a gain in lean muscle tissue. Double-blind research has also reported a reduction in body fat and body weight in people who took 400 mcg of chromium per day for three months.

The indigenous people of the Amazon rainforest (Brazil) have used guarana seed as a beverage and medicine. Guarana was used to inhibit diarrhea, decrease fatigue, and reduce hunger. Caffeine and closely related alkaloids, theobromine and theophylline, make up the primary active constituents of guarana.

Kola nut contains high amounts of caffeine, which helps combat fatigue and is most frequently used as a central nervous system stimulant. It also contains theobromine, which is a stimulant found in chocolate and green tea. The Journal of the American Medical Association advocates the use of kola over other stimulants because it is not addictive and does not lead to depression.

Several studies have demonstrated that consuming green tea extract may influence energy metabolism, body weight, and body fat content. Clinical studies in the USA using catechins (EGCG) have shown an effect on weight loss and fat distribution. These studies were conducted in vitro (test tubes) using mice and later humans. Results of all these studies concluded that constant, high doses of catechins can be effective for promoting weight loss, increasing energy metabolism, and helping maintain a healthy body weight.

Yerba mate is indigenous to South America, specifically in Paraguay, Argentina, Uruguay, and southern Brazil. Research has determined that yerba mate could aid in weight loss. The plant could potentially interfere with cholesterol metabolism and delay intestinal absorption of dietary fat.

Another essential ingredient in this supplement is bitter orange. Its primary compound is p-synephrine, widely used by the nutraceutical industry for weight management, as a stamina booster, and an appetite suppressant. Bitter orange became an important ingredient, replacing ephedra (Ma Huang).

L-Carnitine is a water-soluble nutrient that allows the body to convert fat into energy. It is critical for energy formation and an active metabolism.
