4-Hydroxyisoleucine can be characterized as an amino acid. It is mainly found in fenugreek seeds. Traditional medicine has always used fenugreek seeds for their anti diabetics properties. History states that fenugreek has been associated with healthy eating for a very long time. 4-hydroxyisoleucine that is found in fenugreek helps in increasing the carbohydrate-induced insulin secretion. The pancreas get assistance from 4-hydroxyisoleucine in producing insulin. Research shows that consuming fenugreek as part of your daily meal intake will help keep the fasting blood sugar in control. This in turn helps in improving the glucose tolerance level notably. It has been proven by research that increased blood glucose level leads much faster production of body fat... The higher the glucose level, the more effective this will be on the body. Hence, 4-hydroxyisoleucine has many vital effects on the insulin needs of the body at all time.

Amylase is also sometimes called a starch blocker. As the name suggests, it prevents the body from absorbing dietary starches. It is present in the saliva. This is particularly benefits diabetic patients because it helps maintain and regulate the blood glucose levels. It also helps in maintaining and losing weight. It is effective in treating obesity. The ingested carbohydrates are broken down by the digestive enzymes which are then absorbed by the body. Amylase limits the capacity of the body in absorbing carbohydrates which are later on turned into glucose, a simple sugar, that can be used by the body as energy fuel.

CLA is the abbreviation for Conjugated linoleic acids. It belongs to the linoleic acid group. These acids are mainly found in dairy products and meat. Conjugated linoleic acids have been said to have antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. Research has been conducted on mice and rats to see whether these acids can help hinder the growth of tumors in mammary, colon and skin tissues. Studies are also being conducted on whether conjugated linoleic acids can help reduce abdominal fat. Although, some researchers are of the opinion that supplements containing CLA may have certain side effects. It is believed that these supplements when taken by over weight people might tend to increase the insulin resistance, thus resulting in high chances of developing diabetes. This is said to be one of the major side effects of CLA.

Egg Albumen is the source of protein obtained from eggs. Egg albumen protein is present in egg protein drinks, dried milk, and protein meal replacement procedures. It is soluble in water, fat and gel. According to the hypothesis of ‘blood group and food types’, it is suitable supplement for all blood types. Though, the people who are allergic to eggs should avoid it. Egg albumen supplements are extremely vital for bodybuilders as they are rich in protein and help in muscle development. Egg albumen powder is also used in preparing noodles, sausages, and bakery products to enhance the quality of these foods.

Fibersol

Flax Seed Oil is derived from a blue flowering plant grown in western Canadian Prairies. It is especially grown for the oil rich seeds because the oil, also known as Linseed oil is recommended for well being by experts. The oil is considered very effective for the nutrition of the entire body. Being a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, flaxseed oil is required for the smooth functioning of almost every body system. Besides omega-3, this oil also contains essential fatty acids like omega-6, magnesium, B vitamins, zinc, protein, fiber and omega-9. According to experts, this oil can be taken as an essential supplement for promoting good health. It is as good as taking multi vitamins. Its natural properties can benefit every part such as the immune system, nervous system, circulatory system and joints.

Hemicellulase

L-Isoleucine is one of the amino acids besides the other two, L-Valine and L-Leucine. These are found in all the forms of life as proteins. They are as well obtainable in the diet through vegetable and animal sources. L-Isoleucine is good to regulated blood sugar as well the energy levels. It is also important in the synthesis of hemoglobulin and thereby increases endurance. L-Isolecuine gets metabolized in the tissues of the muscles and the opulent L-Isolecuine sources are almonds, cashews and soy protein. Hence, this is prominent among athletes and is taken in combination with the other two amino acids, L-Leucine and L-Valine. L-Isoleucine is required for the formation of hemoglobin and also regulates as well as stabilizes the energy levels. The other food sources of L-Isoleucine are eggs, meat, fish, rye, chickpeas, chicken, liver and lentils. People suffering from physical and mental disorders are usually deficient in L-Isoleucine. These amino acids are required for the synthesis of enzymes, structural protein and for hormones.

L-Leucine- Leucine is an essential amino acid that does not synthesize in humans and so must be ingested. It slows the degradation of muscle tissue and is used in the formation of sterols.

L-Valine is an amino acid in combination with L-Leucine and L-Isoleucine. These amino acids maintain everyday life and offer maximum support. L-Valine is acquired from vegetable and animal protein. L-Valine regulates the immune system and is involved in the protein synthesis and glucose metabolism. L-Valine is effective in muscle growth as well as tissue repair. L-Valine is a part of the muscle metabolism and is also effective in the nitrogen balance in the body. L-Valine is found in the muscles in high concentration, but this cannot be done on its own in the body and has to be acquired through dietary or food supplements. L-Valine has stimulating effect and maintains the nitrogen in the body. It is effective for repair as well as growth of tissues and for muscle metabolism. Adhering to the label directions is highly recommended. This is normally safe and has no side effect until now. However, for the dietary supplement consulting the physician before use is the best.

Maltodextrin is an easily digested carbohydrate.

Milk Protein Isolate- Milk has a large number of proteins present in it. A mixture of all the milk proteins is known as a milk protein isolate. This mainly constitutes the casein and whey proteins. Milk protein isolate is very good as it has a strong amino acid mixture from both the casein and whey components. This is generally found in sports nutrition bars and also meal replacement powders. There is some research that states (not yet conclusive) that blood groups O and A will face problems when milk proteins are consumed. This stand rises from the argument that milk from the cow is primarily not meant for human consumption.

Palatinose is also known as Isomaltulose. It is a low glycemic and low insulinemic carbohydrate that is chemically derived from sucrose. It is absorbed in the small intestine as disaccharides of glucose and fructose. Palatinose gives a prolonged supply of energy. It works by allowing the glucose enter the blood at a very slow rate that prevents the sudden changes in the glucose and insulin levels. This also helps maintain a balanced blood sugar level. It also inhibits the formation of caries in the teeth because unlike ordinary sugars such as sucrose, maltose and glucose; they are not transformed into acidic substance that causes the formation of plaque on the surface of teeth.

Protease.

Sunflower Oil is rich in vitamin E and has low levels of saturated fat. The two most common kinds of sunflower oil are linoleic and high oleic. Linoleic sunflower oil is used for cooking and is rich in necessary fatty acids called polyunsaturated fat. It also has low levels of trans fat. Sunflower oil is also useful in skin protection and maintains moisture in the skin. It is applied as an ingredient in many skin care products. It can also ensure a protective barrier against infection in infants. Sunflower oil has a very good effect on cardiovascular system. It has ample quantities of vitamin E and essential fatty acids the body needs.

Trehalose is also known as mycose or tremalose. It consists of glucose molecules bonded to glycosidic. It is closely linked to sugar and is present in insects, fungi, plants and bacteria. It is commonly used in confectioneries, fruit jams, rice, and noodles as texturizer, humectant, and stabilizer. It gives better energy supply for a longer period of time. It is beneficial to diabetic patients because it helps in maintaining blood sugar level. It may also prevent Alzheimer’s disease from progressing. It improves memory retention. Trehalose, as a sugar alternative, is good for the teeth because it does not cause cavities like table sugar does.

Whey Protein Concentrate is one of the three commonly produced forms of Whey protein. It is the form of whey protein containing low level of fat and cholesterol but having high level of bioactive compounds and carbohydrates in the form of lactose. Whey protien concentrate is 29%-89% protein by weight depending on the use for which it is produced. Some studies suggest that use of whey protein concentrate as a supplement can reduce the risk of cancer and can increase cellular glutathione levels. However, this type of whey protien cannot be taken by people who are lactose intolerent.

Whey Protein Isolate is a pure high quality protein made from cow's milk. It is a naturally complete protein containing all of the essential amino acids required by the body daily. It is a rich source of branched chain amino acids which metabolize directly into muscle tissue and are the first ones used during periods of exercise and resistance training. It is an excellent source of Lucien which plays a key role in promoting muscle growth. Whey protein also helps stabilize blood glucose levels by slowing the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream.
