Acesulfame Potassium is typically used as an artificial sweetener in many different products from drinks and foods to every day products such as toothpaste. Because it is so much sweeter than natural sugar, less of the product needs to be used. In fact, it is approximately 200 times as sweet as sugar. Acesulfame Potassium contains no calories so is beneficial as a dietary supplement when caloric reduction is desired. It is safe for use with no adverse effects. It is made by transforming acetoacetic acid with potassium. This combination creates a sweetener that is stable and can be used as a sugar substitute.

Soy Lecithin- Although lecithin is a word that is derived from the Greek "lekithos" that translates to "yolk of an egg", the biggest source of lecithin is in fact soybean. Lecithin is nothing but a combination of phospholipids that are naturally present in soybeans and is thus an excellent source of choline. In the absence of choline, the cell membranes are bound to become hard preventing any kind of nutrient exchange. Soy lecithin powder can be easily incorporated into your culinary and body care recipes since it acts as an emulsifier, thickener, mild preservative, emollient, moisturizer, and stabilizer. For the same reason, it is used in food as well as cosmetic products alike. Lecithin also plays an important role of moving cholesterol through our bodies and its ability to bind chemically with cholesterol actually helps in reducing cholesterol levels. It also helps in treating neurological disorders, psoriasis, gallstones, diabetes, and anemia.

Whey Protein is a mixture of globular proteins isolated from whey (the liquid material created as a by-product of cheese production). It can also be extracted from milk by several different methods. Whey protein comes in three major forms: concentrate, isolate and hydrolysate. Its major use is in manufacture of protien supplements taken by bodubuilders and sportsmen to fuel their muscles and provide adequete protein for muscle growth. Some researchers claim that protien supplementation reduces the risk of heart disease and cancer, however, research on the effectiveness of whey in reducing the risk of these diseases is still going on.

Whey Protein Concentrate enhances physical performance and is thought to be the ‘gold standard’ of protein for athletes who work extremely hard to develop and maintain a lean and strong physique. It is naturally complete protein, which means that it contains all essential amino acids that are required in the daily diet. It has the perfect combination of amino acids, helping better the body composition and increase performance of athletes. It is also a good source of branched chain amino acids. These amino acids are vital for athletes since, unlike other essential amino acids, they are metabolized directly into muscle tissues and are the foremost one consumed during exercise and resistance training. Whey protein gives the body branched chain amino acids to restore low levels and initiate repairing and rebuilding of weak muscle tissue.
