Beta-Alanine is an amino acid and occurs naturally as beta amino acid. The dietary source for beta alanine is obtainable by ingesting sources containing dipeptides and this is obtainable in protein rich foods namely pork, chicken, fish and beef. By ingesting such dipeptide only beta alanine is received in plenty. However, besides the dietary source, bodies can as well synthesize the beta alanine in the liver. Beta alanine increases the muscle mass, muscular strength as well as the anaerobic endurance. Alpha alanine is commonly found in meat, plants, eggs, chicken and dairy products, but the beta alanine is not available so conveniently. Beta alanine is also called sometimes as three aminopropionic acid. Beta alanine helps in promoting the high concentrations of intramuscular carnosine and does not support the protein synthesis as well as enzyme production. Beta alanine sustains optimum output in muscle power and in promoting the body weight. It also promotes high energy levels.

Betaine HCL is a source of hydrochloric acid that occurs naturally and is as well a non-essential nutrient that assists in digesting food by breaking proteins and fats. Betaine HCL is essential for absorption of calcium, protein, iron and vitamin B12. This is a hydrochloric acid that destroys the microorganisms and ingested bacteria. Betaine HCL is taking by people having reduced stomach acid levels. There is no proper food source to enhance the levels. The acidity is strong and this is supplemented in the tablets or capsules form in grains or milligrams. There is no adverse effects detected, but further studies are being done. Betaine HCL is effective for Asthma, Thyroid, arthritis, diarrhea, gallstones and food allergies. Betaine HCL should be discontinued immediately if one experiences a burning sensation. Nursing or pregnant women and children or people with severe kidney or liver disease should shun away from taking this nutrient. Even people having a history of gastritis or ulcers should consult doctor.

Creatine Alpha-Ketoglutarate is also known as Creatine AKG. It is formed by combining ordinary creatine molecule with an alpha-ketoglutarate molecule. Creatine bound to the AKG molecule is preferred over regular creatine because AKG is a Krebs cycle intermediate which means that it can easily enter muscle cells, bringing with it more creatine directly into targeted cells. Higher creatine concentrations in muscles provide greater strength and stamina during workouts. Since creatine-AKG uses AKG as a transporter, the problem of transporter downgrade is also eliminated. Bodybuilders and athletes use creatine primarily for increasing stamina but some research also associates higher creatine levels with increased muscle gains.

Creatine Ethyl Ester is an organic compound formed by the reaction of alcohols and carboxylic acid. The standard creatine monohydrate is effective in increasing the muscle strength, lean muscle and endurance. Creatine ethyl ester is absorbed by the ability of the cells as the body does not absorb it properly. This is the reason that creatine is taken in large dosages. Creatine ethyl ester is a monohydrate associated with ester. This ester has the significance as it is found in the animals fat tissue. Creatine supplements are blended with protein powder. However, if it is taken for a longer period, the body stops producing it naturally and completely depends on the supplement. The creatine monohydrate shows no reports having side effects. Women also take creatine, but consulting the doctor is recommended. Ethyl ester decreases the amount of retained water as it is made with typical fatty acids that occur naturally. Hence, less creatine is stored as water weight out of the nutrient pocket.

Di-Creatine Orotate is the combination of ordinary creatine with Orotic Acid. It is used as a performance enhancement supplement by athletes and body builders to increase muscle gains, muscle strength and stamina. It is believed to offer greater ATP formation and absorption. Di-Creatine oratate increases ATP formation by providing phosphoribosylpyrophosphate, Uridine Monophosphate and by elevation of intracellular glycogen stores, all of these contribute to ATP formation. In experiment on rats it induced increase of very-low-density-lipoproteins, VLDL (fats) in the rats, however Manufacturers claim that the supplement is completely safe for human as the increase in VLDL (fats) is very low.

Glycerol Monostearate also referred to as GMS. It is that fat that is formed when glycerol is esterified with stearic acid. It occurs in the body naturally as a by-product of fats and it can also be found in certain fatty foods. Glycerol Monostearate increases the endurance by retaining water in the body. They glycerol helps lower the body temperature and delay fatigue while increasing the performance. It also helps in reducing the acidity that forms in the muscle. It also improves the absorption of other supplements by helping in the delivery the nutrients in the system. It is also ideal, in losing weight because it enhances the metabolism.

Glycocyamine was sought after because as much as a quarter of the world’s population is unable to supplement creatine, more accurately, the supplementation of regular creatine monohydrate had no effect whatsoever. Glycocyamine is a creatine metabolite, missing just a methyl group. Glycocyamine is guanidinoacetic acid and creatine is methylguanidinoacetic acid. Interestingly enough, glycocyamine is processed by the liver and metabolized into creatine, which allowed the rest of the world to supplement creatine as well. Unfortunately the supplementation of glycocyamine also meant that many methyl groups otherwise needed by the body would be now used up by the synthesis of creatine. For that reason it is generally recommended to supplement glycocyamine together with betaine, in order to provide enough methyl groups for all purposes. The commonly suggested ration is four parts betaine, one part glycocyamine, hence a four to one ratio.

R-Alpha Lipoic Acid is a life-extending super antioxidant that functions both as fat and water soluble that easily crosses cell membranes. It potently serves to regenerate other antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and glutathione. Glutathione is the most important water-soluble antioxidant. R-Alpha Lipoic Acid improves mitochondrial functions and metabolic rates. It also decreases oxidative damage while providing protection against the toxic effects of arsenic, cadmium, and mercury. It acts as an anti-aging nutrient via both its antioxidant properties and its antiglycation properties. It is very beneficial in treating diseases involving the liver as well as Type II Diabetes, by improving overall control of blood sugar and reducing blood sugar and insulin levels.
