Siberian Ginseng (root) - Commonly used by athletes for overall body strengthening, Ginseng strengthens the adrenal gland, and promotes healthy circulation. It increases the conversion rate of sugars into the necessary substrates for the formation of fatty acids in the liver. Siberian Genseng stimulates the central nervous system and is a quick antidote for fatigue.

Gotu-Kola - Considered to be one of the best herbal tonics, Gotu Kola works by cleansing and purifying the blood by neutralizing acids and helping the body to defend against toxins. Gotu Kola has important anti-fatigue properties, builds mental stamina and improves memory and longevity.

Fo-Ti (root) - Assists the body in lowering cholesterol and strengthening muscles. Has been found to reduce hypertension, reduce blood cholesterol levels and reduce the chances of coronary heart disease.

Pantothenic Acid - Pantothenic Acid plays a role in the production of the adrenal hormones and the formation of antibodies. It also aids in vitamin utilization, and helps to convert fats, carbohydrates, and proteins into energy. By preventing Coenzyme A to drop, Pantothenic Acid decreases your appetite, burns long-chain fatty acids and restores energy.

Peppermint (leaf) - Peppermint leaf contains a warming oil which aids in increasing oxygen in the blood and works to clean and strengthen the entire body. It contains essential oils similar to Fennel that helps with weight reduction by suppressing your appetite. The primary function of this herb is appetite loss.

Cayenne Pepper (root) - Cayenne Pepper root aids digestion, improves circulation, and acts as a catalyst for other herbs. Studies indicate it has the ability to slow fat absorption in the small intestines, increase the metabolic rate and promote the burning of fat in the body.

Manganese (chelated) - Manganese is needed for protein and fat metabolism, and blood sugar regulation. It is a key element in the production of enzymes needed to oxidize fats and to metabolize purines. It also has the ability to metabolize fats and carbohydrates.

Copper - Among it's many functions, copper aids in the formation of hemoglobin and red blood cells, and works in balance with Zinc and Vitamin C to form elastin, an important protein.

Pyridoxine - Pyridoxine is involved in more bodily functions than almost any other single nutrient. It is necessary for the production of Hydrochloric acid and the absorption of fats and protein.

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) - Riboflavin is necessary for red blood cell formation, antibody production, cell respiration and growth. It aids in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats.
