Acetyl-l-carnitine is a component of the carnitine family formed by the acetylation of the amino acid carnitine. It promotes the function of nerve system cells by sustaining cellular energy metabolism in the mitochondria, and ensuring cellular membrane stability. The result of acetyl-l-carnitine's effects on the nervous system at the cellular level is safe and natural nutritional support of healthy mental functioning.

l-Carnitine is an amino acid found abundantly in skeletal muscle. It functions primarily to regulate fat metabolism, and also acts as a carrier of fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are oxidized and converted to energy. l-Carnitine also facilitates the removal of short and medium chain fatty acids from the mitochondria that accumulate during normal metabolic processes. l-Carnitine has the potential to improve fat metabolism, increase endurance, and enhance the normal functioning of the heart.

l-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body. In times of metabolic stress, glutamine is utilized by the body for organ repair, gastrointestinal tract support, and support for the body's natural defense system. Glutamine plays a large role in supressing intestinal permeability by enhancing the mass and strength of the intestine's protective mucosal lining. In addition, glutamine is a critical factor in the preservation of muscle mass. l-Glutamine nutritionally supports the strength of the mucosal lining and the proper functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, and supports the development of muscle mass.

l-Lysine, an amino acid, provides nutritional support for the body's natural defenses. l-Lysine is particularly helpful in restoring normal arginine levels important for the maintenance of healthy gum and lip tissue. l-Lysine nutritionally modulates the production of arginine and thereby boosts the body's defenses against arginine related assaults.

l-Methionine is an essential amino acid that lowers blood levels of histamine by supporting the body's natural breakdown of histamine. Methionine is a sulphurcontaining amino acid which is very important in cartilage structures, especially proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans. Methionine is incorporated into tissue proteins and enzymes and is a component of physiologically active peptides, such as methionine enkephalin and various endorphins. Methionine acts as a methyl donor for adrenal catecholamines, in the syntheses of choline, and in the formation of creatine. l-Methionine, which is obtained only through normal dietary sources and supplementation, provides nutritional support to the building blocks and proteins of the human body.

N-Acetyl-l-Cysteine (NAC) is a derivative of the dietary amino acid l-cysteine. NAC has a high affinity for lung tissue, which it supports through mucolytic and antioxidant action. By disrupting disulfide bonds, NAC thins mucus. It is a powerful free radical scavenger and thus supports the body's natural defense system. NAC increases tissue levels of glutathione, a key component of the antioxidant defense system. It also has the ability to chelate heavy metals. NAC provides potent nutritional support to all body cells as an antioxidant and specifically supports proper lung functioning through its mucolytic capability.

Taurine is the most abundant free amino acid in the brain, heart, and nervous system, and it plays a role in the normal functioning of the brain, heart, gallbladder, eyes, and vascular system. It facilitates the passage of sodium, potassium, and, possibly, calcium and magnesium, ions into and out of cells, and electrically stabalizes cell membranes. It modulates the activity the activity of cAMP, which activates important enzymes in heary muscle, and contributes to the muscle's contractibility. Taurine is an important component of bile acids which aid in the absorption of fat soluble vitamins. It aids the body's chemistry by detoxifying harmful chemicals. Dietary taurine stimulates the formation of taurocholate, a substance which increases cholesterol secretion in the bile and also improves fat metabolism in the liver. Taurine offers a wide range of nutritional support to many organ systems throughout the body; as a supplement it is most notable known for its heart muscle support.

PhosphatidylSerine (PS) is an endogenic phospholipid present in cell membranes. The PS in this formulation is produced without bacterial enzymes or solvents.
