5-Methoxytryptamine HCL

Alpha-Phenylethylamine HCL

Caffeine is a stimulant that is used to stay awake and it gives mental alertness from fatigue. This is used as an adjunct for pain relief and also as energy accelerates. Caffeine is a non-prescription drug easily available as over the counter medication and comes in combination to acquire relief from headache and pain. Caffeine increases the mental alertness by offering the required energy for exercise training and weight loss. Caffeine cannot be considered as a mere stimulant as it reaches deep into muscles and provides power that is long lasting. Caffeine taken before any work out is also great as it fights the fatigue and keeps the person ready for the workout. Dieters also find caffeine as the solution as they feel sluggish. This is a no-calorie stimulant and does its job effectively and quickly. Caffeine anhydrous is found even in one or two coffee cups. However, this limitation is recommended as excess caffeine may result in irritability, rapid heart beat, nervousness and sleeplessness.

L-Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid, which is used by the cells in order to synthesize the proteins and appears to help stabilize ones mood during periods of high stress levels.

Methylsynephrine is a variation of B – phenylehylamine which is found in the rare medicinal plant Acacia Rigidula and some other cacti which basically produces central nervous stimulation. Methylsynephrine is one of the newly identified key alkaloids in Acacia Rigidula. Methylsynephrine is an off the chain version of Synephrine. It is an adrenergic amine which accelerates fat metabolism as well as thermogenisis. These simultaneously speed up the fat burning process. Methylsynephrine, unlike ephedrine which is chemically similar, has mild stimulating properties on the central nervous system. This is a very desirable property in any weight loss compound as it allows for quick fat burning without the accompanying racing hear and anxiety. Methylsynephrine is also distinctive due to its role in the metabolization and the destruction of fat in the body by freeing up the stored fat for energy instead of using the ingested carbohydrates.

N-Benzyl-Alpha-Phenylethylamine

N-Methyl-B-Phenylethylamine- B- Phenylethylamine is an amine found in trace amounts in brain tissue in mammals. It can be synthesised by the body through enzymatic decarboxylation of phenylalanine, an amino acid. B-Phenylehtylamine is also found in high concentrations in plants and thus individuals tend to have a high intake of this compound as part of their diet, being a part of chocolate and the oil of bitter almonds. Apart from the diet, it can also be taken as a medicine or a dietary supplement. Regardless of how it is consumed, B-Phenylethylamine is most commonly associated with the pleasure centres of the brain and is considered to be a ‘feel good’ hormone. Recently newer forms of B-Phenylethylamine like N-Methyl-B-Phenylethylamine have been used in dietary supplements. These have been suggested to be more resistant to degradation and thus offer a longer lasting effect of the compound. N-Methyl-B-Phenylethylamine has also been reported to have a better ability of crossing the blood brain barrier, thus being more effective.

N-Methyl-Phenylethylamine

Phenylethlamine HCL

R-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL is a relatively new compound which is the active isomer of Methylphenylethylamine similar to how 1R-25 Norephedrine was of PPA many years ago. What makes R-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL very popular and an important component for many commercially produced weight loss products is to do with the effects it has on the human body. R-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL is a compound which stimulates norepinephrine unlike any other compound in the body. By stimulating norepinehrine, R-Beta-Methylphenylethylamine HCL produces effects like appetite suppression, increase in energy and through the combination of these two effects, there is an overall result of weight loss.

Synephrine HCL- Designed primarily to encourage fat loss. This is achieved by stimulating the beta-3 receptors. Doing so increases the metabolic rate leading to fat loss. Synephrine is a stimulant similar to caffeine and ephedrine and it is believed to provide an energy boost, suppress appetite and increase metabolism. The combination of all leads to burning more calories. Studies have stated that synephrine stimulates fat metabolism without the usual negative cardiovascular side effects. The effectiveness of synephrine is increased by combining it with HCL. This allows for increased absorption and more solubility in water. However regardless of the increasing popularity of synephrine HCL, there are still some debates over its over all effects and it being used as an alternative to ephedrine, a substance made illegal by many countries due to the side effects including heart disease.

Theobromine, which is a mild diuretic and mild stimulant. Theobromine can be found in cocoa and chocolate products. Theobromine is most commonly used for its diuretic effect.

Yohimbine HCL raises body temperatures. it increases the flow of blood to the genital area and increases the sex drive in men but also women have reported similar effects.
