Arginine - is one of the important
precursor amino acids to the formation human Growth Hormone and in the
formation of the popular weight lifting supplement, creatinine. Arginine
has also been shown in clinical studies to improve circulation, enhance
exercise performance, used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction,
important in the healing of wounds, etc.(comprehensive
Arginine information)
Lysine - is a precursor
amino acid for the formation Human Growth Hormone. Supplemental use
of lysine can decrease the cold sores, canker sores genital ulcers associated
with the virus. lysine as been shown to increase the body's ability
to absorb calcium helping to prevent osteoporosis.(comprehensive
Lysine information)
Glutamine - is yet
another precursor amino acid in the metabolism of Human Growth Hormone.
The amino acid is instrumental in building lean body mass, strengthening
the immune system, preventing ammonia toxicity, stabilizes blood sugar
and alcohol cravings, anti-oxidant properties, proper healing, improves
conditions of the bowel, etc.(comprehensive
Glutamine information)
Phosphatidylserine - makes
up an important part of cell membranes which is essential to the proper
functioning of neurotransmitters. As an individuals ages the ability
to produce essential neurotransmitters decreases. Phosphatidylserine
improves the overall action of all the neurotransmitters by enhancing
the performance of cell membranes. Clinical studies have shown that
the supplemental use of Phosphatidylserine produces significant improvement
in memory, motivation, anxiety concentration and overall cognitive functioning.(comprehensive
Phosphatidylserine information)
Tribulus terrestris
(puncture vine) - is a branching weedy shrub to vine with distinctive
burr fruit with sharp hard spines that grow as weeds in pasture and
agricultural land. Tribulus Terrestris has been used in past centuries
for treatment of the following conditions: Tribulus Terrestris has been
used in past centuries for traditional medicine for the treatment of
the following conditions: diseases of genito urinary tract including
dysuria chronic cystitis, phosphaturia, incontinence, spermatorrhoea
(Involuntary discharge of semen without orgasm) impotence, cardiovascular
disorders, Immune system deficiencies. The herb is also very popular
in the weight lifting community to enhance muscle mass by increasing
levels of testosterone. (comprehensive
Tribulus terrestris information).
Chrysin (Passiflora
coerulea) - is a a naturally occurring bioflavinoid that is extracted
from the plant Passiflora coerulea. Chysin extracted from the leaves
of the passion flower have been used for centuries for the treatment
of the following: anxiety, hyperactive children, bronchial asthma, menopausal
symptoms, cardiovascular neurosis, oncentration difficulties, etc. Chrysin
is also very popular with competitive athletes. Chrysin acts as an anti-aromatase
that prevents the conversion of excess testosterone into estrogen, therefore,
increasing testosterone levels naturally (comprehensive
Chrysin information).
Colostrum - is a thick yellow
fluid that is secreted by the mammary glands of female during the first
few days of lactation. Colustrum is rich in minerals, vitamins, growth
factors, immunoglobulin, antibodies, enzymes, and other nutrients to
aide the immune system. While the immune factors in colostrum help to
ward of disease and infections, the growth factors in colostrum are
important in repairing and reversing the damage caused by injuries,
disease,. and aging The growth factors in colostrum have shown to improve
the following metabolic processes: uptake of nutrients, bone mass, increased
overall energy, returns elasticity and decreases wrinkles in the skin,
promotes lean muscle mass, helps to bal `ance blood sugar levels, increased
concentration and memory levels, elevate moods and overall sense of
well-being (comprehensive
Colostrum information).
Naringinine -
is a citrus flavinoid that act as effective anti-inflammatories, antivirals,
antihistamines and antioxidants. Flavanoids serve to prevent or treat
a wide variety of conditions including the following: decreases the
risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease, alleviate skin irritations,
reduces joint and muscle pain, decrease the incidence of cataracts and
muscular degeneration, menopausal symptoms. Naringinine also possesses
antioxidant properties and reduces harmful cholesterol levels.(comprehensive
Naringinine information).
Amino Peptide Complexes - clinical studies have
shown that certain amino acids i.e. arginine, glutamine and lysine can
act as a secretagogue or a an agent that stimulates secretion such as
Human Growth Hormone.

Clinical studies:
Studies have shown that certain amino acids especially when
administered simultaneously will stimulate the release of Human
Growth Hormone. Arginine, Lysine and Glutamine are three such
amino acids that have been shown to stimulate the pituitary
to secrete Human Growth Hormone. Isidori A, et al. A study of
Growth Hormone release in man after oral administration of amino
acids. Curr Med Res Opin 1981;7:475-81.

Lysine - is an essential amino acid (the body cannot create
the amino acid on its own it must be ingested). Good sources
of lysine are found in cheese, eggs, potatoes, milk, lime
beans, meat and brewer's yeast. |
|
|
| |
Physiology:
Lysine is required for growth and bone development
in children, assists in calcium absorption and maintaining the
correct nitrogen balance in the body and maintaining lean body
mass. Furthermore it is needed to produce antibodies, hormones,
enzymes, collagen formation as well as repair of tissue.
Clinical studies:
Studies have shown that certain amino acids especially when
administered simultaneously will stimulate the release of Human
Growth Hormone. Lysine, Arginine and Glutamine are three such
amino acids that have been shown to stimulate the pituitary
to secrete Human Growth Hormone. Isidori A, et al. A study of
Growth Hormone release in man after oral administration of amino
acids. Curr Med Res Opin 1981;7:475-81. Kasai K, et al.
Modern day uses:
Today, Lysine is prescribed by physicians and herbal specialist
for the following positive effects:
- Stimulating the production of Human Growth
Hormone - clinical studies have shown that certain amino acids
can stimulate the secretion of Human Growth Hormone specifically
Lysine, Arginine and glutamine.
- Treatment of herpes simplex virus - lysine
has been shown to suppress the growth of the herpes virus.
Supplemental use of lysine can decrease the cold sores, canker
sores genital ulcers associated with the virus.
- Calcium absorption - lysine assists in
the proper absorption of calcium
- Nitrogen balance - the amino acid is
important in maintaining a correct nitrogen balance
- Treatment of osteoporosis - lysine as
been shown to increase the body's ability to absorb calcium
helping to prevent osteoporosis.
- Precursor amino acid - aside from being

Glutamine - is a nonessential amino acid in the body. Good
sources of Glutamine include many foods that are high in protein
such as beans, fish, meat, and dairy products. |
|
|
| |
Physiology:
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the human
body. Glutamine is involved in more metabolic processes than
any other amino acid. The amino acid is used by white blood
cells to boost our immune system, converted to glucose when
an energy source is required, anti-inflammatory effects, when
combined with N-acetyl cysteine Glutamine promotes the synthesis
of a naturally occurring antioxidant.
Clinical studies:
Studies have shown that certain amino acids especially when
administered simultaneously will stimulate the release of Human
Growth Hormone. Glutamine, Lysine and Arginineare three such
amino acids that have been shown to stimulate the pituitary
to secrete Human Growth Hormone. Isidori A, et al. A study of
Growth Hormone release in man after oral administration of amino
acids. Curr Med Res Opin 1981;7:475-81.
Modern day uses:
Today, Glutamine is prescribed by physicians and herbal specialists
for the following positive effects:
- Stimulating the production of
Human Growth Hormone - clinical studies have shown
that certain amino acids can stimulate the secretion of Human
Growth Hormone specifically glutamine, lysine and arginine.
- Builds lean muscle mass
- the amino acid serves as a nitrogen and carbon donor promoting
muscle growth.
- Prevents ammonia toxicity
- one of glutamine's most important functions is to protect
the brain from ammonia toxicity. Excess ammonia can result
in neurodegenerative diseases and result in the release of
nitrogen based free radicals.
- Brain Energy - glutamine
is highly concentrated in the brain and is an important source
of energy. In the absence of glucose, glutamine can be used
as source of energy. Thus, glutamine promotes concentration,
memory, alertness, and other cognitive functions. If the brain
does not have enough glucose it will compensate by using glutamine
as an additional energy source.
- Strengthens the immune system
- glutamine is a popular supplement in treatment of of individuals
with AIDS or cancer. Glutamine promotes the growth of the
immune system.
- Bowel conditions - glutamine
has been shown to be beneficial in treatment of the bowel
secondary to acid reflux, Crohn's disease, ulcers, food allergies,
achlorhydria, NSAIDs abuse or any other condition that requires
healing or synthesis of the intestinal cells. Glutamine enhances
intestinal immune function, stimulates intestinal mucosal
growth, inhibits intestinal bacteria growth, assists in the
regulation of the ph in the intestines, etc.
- Stabilizes blood sugar and alcohol
cravings - when blood glucose is low, glutamine suppresses
insulin to decrease a further decline in glucose levels. Glutamine
is a glycogenic amino acid meaning it can be converted into
sugar for energy production (gluconeogenesis). The blood glucose
stabilizing effects help to decrease alcohol and sugar cravings.
- Protein metabolism -
glutamine is used in the kidneys and liver in the synthesis
of urea and ammonia which are the normal breakdown products
of protein which must be excreted.
- Anti-oxidant properties
- the amino acid is important in the synthesis of glutathione
an essential anti-oxidant.
- Healing - trauma, surgery,
infections, stress, burns, cancer, infections, and most major
illnesses can deplete glutamine levels. This can result in
a flow of glutamine out the muscles promoting muscle wasting
during periods of stress or debilitating disease.

Source:
Phosphatidylserine - belongs to a special category of fat-soluble
substances called phospholipids, which are essential components
of cell membranes. Phosphatidylserine is found only in trace
amounts in the normal diet. Phosphatidylserine can be derived
from a bovine (cow) source, however, the form is not used
secondary to the risk of humans contracting "mad cow"
disease. Currently, Phosphatidylserine is derived from soy
to prevent any spread of disease. |
|
|
| |
Physiology:
Brain cells are rich in Phosphatidylserine, which contributes
to these cells ability to release the chemical neurotransmitters.
While medications can increase the level of specific chemical
neurotransmitters, Phosphatidylserine improves the overall action
of all the neurotransmitters by enhancing the performance of
cell membranes.
As an individual ages there are both biochemical and
structural changes in the brain. These changes include restructuring
of the neuronal membrane lipid composition, decreases in the
metabolism of neurotransmitters and a decrease in synaptic density.
These changes result in a decline in overall cognitive function
i.e. decline in memory, potential to learn new tasks and behavioral
changes (loss of motivation, socialization complications, increased
anxiety, etc.).
Clinical studies:
Clinical studies have shown that the supplemental use of Phosphatidylserine
produces significant improvement in memory, concentration, motivation,
anxiety and overall cognitive functioning. Individuals suffering
from Alzheimer's disease noted improvement on the Blessed Dementia
Scale (measure of information processing, activities of daily
living, memory). Phosphatidylserine also has a positive effect
on individuals who suffer from depression. Supplemental use
of Phosphatidylserine resulted in an improvement in depressive
symptoms in as little as thirty days of treatment.
Phosphatidylserine also appears to protect
against the stress response to reduce anxiety. Phosphatidylserine
is especially effective when combined with lifestyle revision,
a healthy diet and proper exercise.
Modern day uses:
Today, Phosphatidylserine is prescribed by physicians and herbal
specialist for the following:
- Overall cognitive functioning including
memory and concentration
- Alzheimer's disease
- Depression
Precautions and/or adverse effects:
Individuals with preexisting medical conditions should consult
with their physician particularly if they are taking prescription
or over-the-counter-medications or supplements. Women who are
pregnant or breast feeding and children should also consult
with there physician prior to taking any new supplements There
have been no significant side effects or drug interactions with
Phosphatidylserine presented at the time of this writing.

Source:
A branching weedy shrub to vine with distinctive burr fruit
with sharp hard spines that grow as weeds in pasture and agricultural
land. The leaflets are less than a quarter-inch long. The
whole plant is a tap rooted annual about three to thirty inches
across. The plant flowers with very hard sharp "seeds”,
each one a single-seeded wedge of the intact fruit. The herb
has worldwide distribution including Asia and the Pacific
realm. There are some 10 species of Tribulus indigenous to
Australia where the herb is very popular. |
|
|
| |
Traditional uses:
Tribulus Terrestris has been used in past centuries for traditional
medicine for the treatment of the following conditions:
- Diseases of genito urinary tract including
dysuria chronic cystitis, phosphaturia, incontinence, etc.
- Spermatorrhoea (Involuntary discharge
of semen without orgasm)
- Uterine disorders after parturition
- Upper and lower respiratory infections
- Liver disorders
- Cardiovascular disorders
- Immune system deficiencies
Physiology:
Tribulus terrestris increases muscle mass and improves
erections by increasing testosterone levels in unique fashion.
Unlike, DHEA or Androstenedione, which simply act as testosterone
precursors. Tribulus terrestris increases testosterone levels
by increasing the levels of Lutenizing Hormone (LH). LH is responsible
for signaling the leydig cells in the testes to release testosterone.
Studies have shown an increase in excess of 50% testosterone
levels when taking the Tribulus terrestris herb. The increase
in testosterone levels will promote protein synthesis, positive
nitrogen balance as well as a quicker recovery from muscular
stress. The plant has also been shown to increase in sperm production
and motility.
Clinical studies:
An interesting correlation of dehydroepiandrosterone-sulphate (DHEA-S) level with the incident of low sex drive and higher occurrence of impotence was discovered in studies with patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. In order to test the further relationship between DHEA-S and erectile dysfunction, a clinical trial was done with 30 non-diabetic men with Erectile Dysfunction, 30 non-diabetic men without Erectile Dysfunction and 15 diabetic men with Erectile Dysfunction. These men are given extract of Tribulus terrestris (Libilov) at 3 x 250 mg / day for 3 weeks. The DHEA-S levels, as well as other blood and liver parameters were evaluated.
Clinicians found a significant increase of DHEA-S levels in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects after treatment, and a significant increase in the frequency of successful intercourse by 60% in both the diabetic and non-diabetic groups with or without Erectile Dysfunction. Protodioscin from herbal plant tribulus terrestris L improves the male sexual functions, probably via the DHEA. Adimoelja A, Ganeshan P. Adaikan A University, Indonesia and National University of Singapore in 6th Biennial Asian-Pacific Meeting on Impotence in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (1997)Int. J. Impotence Research v9, supp 1 (1997)
In another study clinicians investigated the effects of Tribulus terrestris L. on sperm morphology and acrosome reaction in subjects with oligoasthenoteratozoospermia. A double-blind placebo-controlled trial was performed with 30 primary and secondary infertile men. Half received oral Tribulus three times per day for 60 days, and the rest were given sugar pills. The ejaculate volume, sperm concentration, morphology, acrosome reactions, and other parameters were evaluated before and after treatment.
A significant increase in the percentage of slow or sluggish progressive motile sperm in the treated group was observed when compared to the control group. The percentage of the sperm with normal acrosome (a process at the anterior end of a sperm cell that produces enzymes to facilitate penetration of the egg) reaction was also increased, whereas, the percentage of immotile sperm decreased significantly. The frequency of sexual intercourse was also increased significantly in the Tribulus group. The study concluded that Tribulus terrestris L., given at 500mg three times a day for 60days proved to be effective in restoring some of the sperm functions, such as motility and acrosome reactions.
Tribulus terrestris L. extract improves spermatozoa motility and increases the efficiency of the acrosome reaction in subjects diagnosed with oligoasthenoteratozoospermia L. Setiawan Airlangga University, Surabaya, Indonesia (1996).
Modern day uses:
Today, Tribulus terestris is used for much of the same conditions
as mentioned in the above paragraphs. However, the herb is primarily
prescribed for the treatment of erectile dysfunction (impotence)
and for increasing testosterone levels specifically amongst
the weight lifting community.
Precautions and/or adverse effects:
Individuals with preexisting medical conditions should consult
with their physician particularly if they are taking prescription
or over-the-counter-medications or supplements. Women who are
pregnant or breast feeding and children should also consult with
there physician prior to taking any new supplements. Very few
side effects have been reported with the use of Tribulus terrestris
except for periodic cases of an upset stomach at the time of this
writing. This situation can usually be avoided if individuals
take the herb on a full stomach.

Traditional uses:
Spanish explorers were introduced to the sedative effects of
the herb via the Indians of Peru and Brazil. These explorers
brought the herb back to Spain were the leaves were used widely
as a sedative and sleep inducing agent. Chysin extracted from
the leaves of the passion flower have also been used for centuries
for the treatment of anxiety, cardiovascular difficulties, female
complications.
Physiology:
Chrysin presents a unique method to increase testosterone
levels, were DHEA, Tribulus terrastis and androstenedione among
other supplements act as precursors to testosterone, Chrysin
acts as an anti-aromatase that prevents the conversion of excess
testosterone into estrogen. Chrisin alternate way to naturally
increase testosterone levels has made the herb very popular
amongst competitive athletes.
Modern day uses:

Traditional uses:
Phosphatidylcholine is a phospholipid that is abundant in cell
membranes and required for normal nerve function. Phosphatidylcholine
is composed of a choline, 2 fatty acids and a phosphate group.
The choline in PC is a precursor to the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine,
which is responsible for transmitting the signals involved in
memory, cognition, muscle contractions, vasodilatation, promotes
parasympathetic effects, etc. Deficiencies in acetylcholine
have been attributed to Alzheimer's disease, tardive dyskinesia,
multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, depression, attention
deficit, chronic fatigue, Friedrich's ataxia, myasthenia gravis,
Huntington's chorea, etc.

Naringinine - is a citrus flavinoid found primarily in grapefruit
juice. |
|
|
| |
Physiology:
Flavanoid is a blanket term given to compounds that
impart the colorful pigment to numerous fruits, vegetables,
grains and herbs. Flavanoids, such as, naringinine act as effective
anti-inflammatories, antivirals, antihistamines and antioxidants.
Clinical Studies:
Clinical studies have shown that oral supplementation with PC
can significantly improve concentration and memory especially
in individuals who suffer from Alzheimer's disease. Phosphatidylcholine
supplementation also improves movement in patients with a neurological
disorder, tardive dyskinesia, characterized by uncontrolled
twitching of the face and muscular movement. Cenacchi B. Cognitive
decline in the elderly: A double-blind placebo-controlled multi
center study on efficacy of phosphatidylserine administration
Aging Clin. Exp. Res. 5, 123-133 (1993)
Modern day uses:
Today, Flavanoids are prescribed by physicians and herbal specialist
in order to prevent or treat a wide variety of conditions including
the following:
- Decrease cancer risk
- supplemental use of flavanoids have been linked to a lower
incidence of cancer including: stomach, lung, pancreatic,
breast, prostate, etc.
- Reduced risk of cardiovascular disease
- clinical studies have shown that flavanoids help to reduce
the incidence of blood clots, strokes and heart disease.
- Alleviate skin irrittations - flavonoids
anti-inflammatory actions help to reduce the symptoms associated
with eczema and psoriasis.
- Reduced joint and muscle pain - again the
anti-inflammatory properties of the flavanoids help with the
pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, gout,
etc.
- Decrease incidence of cataracts and macular degeneration
- flavanoids help to reduce the development of cataracts
and macular degeneration secondary to their ability to improve
circulation to the region.
- Menopausal symptoms - flavanoids have been
shown to reduce the symptoms associated with menopause secondary
to their mild estrogen effect.
- Antioxidant properties - naraginine help
prevent the cell damage caused by unstable oxygen molecules
known as free radicals.
- Decreased cholesterol - flavanoids, such
as, naraginine have shown to reduce harmful LDL cholesterol.
Precautions and/or adverse effects:
Individuals with preexisting medical conditions should consult
with their physician particularly if they are taking prescription
or over-the-counter-medications or supplements. Women who are
pregnant or breast feeding and children should also consult
with there physician prior to taking any new supplements. More
specifically, Flavanoids, such as, naraginine may decrease the
effects of certain chemotherapy medications. Naraginine has
also been shown to amplify the effects of calcium channel blockers
i.e. Amiodipine (Norvasc), Verapamil (Calan), Nifedipine (Procardia),
resulting in significant drops in blood pressure. Co administration
of vitamin c will help to increase the effects of the flava.
