Vitamin C is required for the growth of tissues in all parts of the body. It is essential for maintenance of cartilage, bones, and teeth. It is an antioxidant and enhances the absorption of magnesium.
Quercetin is a bioflavonoid compound that blocks the release of histamine and other enzymes. It is a very powerful antioxidant that promotes a healthy immune and cardiovascular system.
Curcumin is a powerful antioxidant that blocks the activity of Cox-2. Curcumin was first used by Indians over 3000 years ago.
Cat's Claw is an antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
Bromelain contains enzymes and may inhibit the cyclooxygenase enzyme, inhibiting the synthesis of PG-2 and helps break down fibrin (fibrinolytic).

Glucuronolactone (glucuronic acid lactone) is a natural metabolite found in the body and supplies energy, increases feelings of well-being, reduces sleepiness and is widely known to support mental performance, reaction time, concentration and memory.
Taurine is an amino acid believed to play an important role in many areas of the body including the brain and nervous system. It is presumed to act as a neurotransmitter and influence the central nervous system. Taurine may speed recovery between workouts, reduce drowsiness, increase mental alertness and improve reaction time.
L-Phenylalanine is an essential, nine-carbon amino acid and is a precursor to the amino acid tyrosine. Because tyrosine is necessary for the synthesis of proteins and the production of the neurotransmitters dopamine and norepinephrine, phenylalanine is an extremely important nutrient that must be obtained through the diet or supplementation.
L-Phenylalanine can act as a potent mental stimulant for improved concentration during workouts and an increase in mental focus for thought processes in any sports activity.
N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine, also called L-Tyrosine, is an essential amino acid since tyrosine can be made from the amino acid phenylalanine. Tyrosine is converted into dopamine and norepinephrine. Supplementation with both tyrosine and phenylalanine leads to alertness. By increasing brain neurotransmitter concentrations, tyrosine can help increase attention and combat performance decrements during sustained efforts.
Malic Acid is important to the production of energy in the body during both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. It is thought to improve energy production at the cellular level and may benefit healthy individuals interested in maximizing their energy production.
Caffeine is found in the leaves, seeds or fruits of more than 60 plants, including coffee, tea, cocoa beans, kola and guarana. It is consumed due to its stimulating effect, which lasts a few hours depending on the amount of caffeine and the metabolism of the person.

Bacopa Monniera leaf extract has may have a direct effect on supporting brain functions, increasing concentration, and in promoting memory functions.
Choline Bitartate is a chemical similar to the B-vitamins and serves various functions in our bodies, in the structure of cell membranes and works as a building block for the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and other chemical messengers in the brain. It is a precursor to molecules that relay signals between nerve cells, including those in the brain.
Acetyl L Carnitine is a stabilized form of the amino acid metabolite L-Carnitine. It plays an important role in the transfer and utilization of long-chain fatty acids, which are used in the production of energy. Natural levels of Acetyl-l-carnitine diminish as we age.
