Formula Ingredient Deck | Benefits Of Each Ingredient |
Vitamin B6 pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) |
● Serves as a cofactor in more than 150 enzymatic reactions associated in blood sugar regulation, immunity, cardiovascular function, neuronal health, metabolic, and digestive health (38, 40). ● Reduces plasma glucose (blood sugar levels) via by inhibiting the activity of small-intestinal α-glucosidases (enzymes associated with glucose metabolism) (39). ● Functions as an antioxidant by counteracting the formation of reactive oxygen species (inflammatory markers) and advanced glycation end-products (38,40). ● May support blood sugar regulation in women with gestational diabetes (40). ● Cofactor for enzymes involved in DNA metabolism (40). |
Niacin (Vitamin B3) |
● Major B vitamin that supports cardiovascular health by inhibiting hepatic(liver) triglyceride synthesis, reducing very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) secretion, and increasing HDL plasma concentrations (9). ● Reduces conversion of VLDL into LDL proteins and serum lipoprotein concentrations in plasma (blood) (9). ● Vital for regulation of gene expression, cell cycle progression, and DNA repair, and cell death (9). ● Supports healthy inflammatory response via antioxidant and anti-apoptotic (prevention of cell death) properties (9). ● Prevents pathologies(diseases) such as Pellagra and reduces prevalence of nervous anorexia, cancer, and crohn's disease (10, 11). ● Supports sensitization of tumors to radiation via apoptosis (cell death) cascade of tumor mass and improves oxygen delivery to malignant tissues (cancer cells) (12). ● Supports cognitive health by reducing age-related decline of NAD+, increasing quinolinic acid and reducing neuroinflammation (9). ● Increased niacin associated NAD+ levels have been shown to increase neurotransmission, learning and memory (9). ● Niacin reduces the prevalence of neurodegenerative pathologies by preventing mitochondrial dysfunction (9). |
Caffeine Anhydrous |
● Optimizes energy, cognitive function, and mental alertness (24). ● Supplementation with caffeine has been shown to acutely enhance exercise performance (24). |
L-Citrulline Malate |
● Supports cardiovascular health and exercise performance by increasing production of l-arginine (34). ● Increases nitric oxide production, improves exercise performance, and increases blood flow to exercising skeletal muscle (35). ● Supports strength increases, exercise endurance, and recovery (34,35). ● May reduce blood pressure by increasing vascular function (34). |
Bioperine | ● Increases absorption of amino acids and curcumin. |
Folate (Folic Acid) | ● May support proper cell growth and DNA synthesis (65). |
Vitamin B-12 (Methylcobalamin) |
● Metabolically active, methylated form of Vitamin B12 needed for proper DNA synthesis, folate cycle function, energy production, cognitive function, and immune health (51,53). ● Aids as an antioxidant via direct scavenging of reactive oxygen species (inflammation), preserving l-glutathione levels (master antioxidant), and reducing oxidative stress (51). ● May prevent vitamin b-12 deficiency diseases such as anemia, neurodegenerative disease, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis (53). |
Creatine Monohydrate |
● Optimizes exercise performance, muscle mass, strength, thermoregulation, recovery, and intramuscular stores of phosphocreatine (PCr) (47). ● Vital for the energy reaction of every cell in the human body as a spatial energy shuttle and energy sensor (47,50). ● Vital in bioenergetics (metabolic activity) of the brain (50). ● Fuels CD8 and CD4 T- cell mediated immunity (immune cells) in cancer tissue (48,49). ● Supports cognition and focus via replenishment of cerebral storage of creatine (creatine in the brain) (50). ● Supports cognitive health in brain creatine deficiency associated neurodegenerative diseases (50). ● Supports cognitive health by enhancing the facilitation of synaptic glutamate and neurotransmitter uptake (50). |
N-Acetyl Tyrosine |
● Supports memory, cognitive flexibility, executive function of the brain, and convergent thinking (60). ● Precursor to dopamine and is vital for dopamine synthesis in the brain (60). ● Supports cognitive function in individuals with high amounts of stress and anxiety (60,61). ● Increases dopamine levels in highly stressed individuals (60). |
Choline Bitrate |
● Essential for cell membrane integrity, cell messaging, fat metabolism, DNA synthesis, immune support, and nervous system function (62,63). ● Serves as a methyl donor and as a precursor for production of cell membranes (62). ● Precursor for acetylcholine (neurotransmitter) which activates receptors in the central nervous system mediated immune responses (α7nAchR) (64). ● Lifelong choline supplementation may combat neurodegenerative diseases by reducing amyloid-β plaque load (plaques of degrading neurons) (62). ● Reduces concentration of total homocysteine (inflammation marker) in individuals with low levels of folate and other B vitamins (B₂, B₆, and B₁₂) (62). |
DMAE Bitrate | ● Increases acetylcholine levels in the brain. |
L-Theanine |
● Unique non-protein amino acid found in green tea (Camellia sinensis) (53). ● Supports mood, mental clarity, and cognitive health, memory, and is a natural anti-depressant/neuroprotective agent (53). ● Aids as an antidepressant due to partial antagonism for the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor manifesting its cognitive optimizing effects (53). ● Reduces the neuropsychiatric side effects of chronic adolescent THC exposure (54). |
Bacopa Monnieri |
● Supports cognitive function, memory, alertness, and aids as an anti-stress agent (57). ● May combat inflammatory conditions such as asthma, bronchitis, dropsy, and rheumatism (56,59). ● Bacopa has been shown to have anti-inflammatory effects on macrophages (immune cells) and inhibits the release of IL-6 and TNF-α (inflammatory markers) from monocytes (immune cells) (58,59,). ● Promising candidate for the development of novel therapeutics that target neuroinflammation and have the potential for treating a wide range of CNS disorders including Alzheimer's disease, depression, and schizophrenia (59). |
Proper Use of This Supplement |
Suggested Use: Stir 1 rounded scoop with 6-8ounces of cold water and consume 30-45 minutes before beginning activity. |
Our Formula Vs Other Formulas on the Market | |
1. Uses third party independently tested ingredients that are made in the USA, GMP certified, and made in an FDA registered facility. | 1. Source cheap ingredients from heavily polluted soils. Even “organic” supplements not third party tested have been removed by FDA due to high levels of heavy metals. |
2. Utilizes efficacious evidence-based dosages with optimal ratios of amino acids, nootropics, and pump enhancers to support exercise performance and recovery. | 2. Use low amounts of cheap forms of amino acids, nootropics, and pump enhancers that result in poor absorption and muscle growth, recovery, and exercise performance. |
