Beta-Sitosterol, is a dietary phytosterol found in oils, vegetables and nuts. It has a chemical structure similar to that of cholesterol with a characteristic odor. Soluble in alcohols, it is found in black cumin seeds, pecan, avocados, saw palmetto, pumpkin seeds, cashew fruits, corn oils, rice bran, wheat germ and soybeans. Beta-Sitosterol reduces the blood levels of cholesterol and inhibits its absorption in the intestine. There are indications that it may help with the prevention and therapy for human cancer. There are side effects to this drug such as possible stomach aches, nausea, constipation, diarrhea or impotence.

Glutamic Acid is an excitatory neurotransmitter, which enhances firing of neurons in central nervous system. Glutamic acid is a main excitatory neurotransmitter in brain and spinal caord. It is transformed either into glutamine or gamma-aminobutyric acid – the two other amino acids which assist in transmitting messages to brain. Glutamic acid plays a vital role in metabolism of fats and sugars, and assists in transporting potassium into spinal fluid and across the blood-brain barrier. Though it doesn’t cross the blood-brain barrier as readily as is done by glutamine, it is present in blood at high levels and may reach the brain in small amounts. The brain can utilize glutamic acid as a fuel. It assists in correcting personality disorders and is helpful in treating childhood behavioral disorders. It is also used in treating mental retardation, epilepsy, ulcers, muscular dystrophy, and hypoglycemic coma.

L-Alanine- As one of the twenty alpha amino acids that are proteinogenic, which means that these amino acids are building blocks of proteins, L-Alanine is the second most abundant amino acid, with leucine being the first. This nonpolar amino acid can be produced by the body by means of reductive amination of pyruvate and some branched chain amino acids, like isoleucine, leucine and valine. Liver and tissues depend on alanine, which plays a prominent role in the glucose alanine cycle. Alanine is also involved in the removal of nitrogen from tissues to the liver, but alanine also assists in the blood sugar tapping of the body for energy requirements. Despite being a non-essential amino acid, alanine is found in meat, dairy products, fish, poultry, eggs, some beans, nuts and seeds, brown rice bran, corn and whole grains, among other sources.

L-Glycine- Glycine is an organic compound and one of the 20 amino acids deemed as building blocks for proteins. This proteinogenic amino acid is not only the smallest but also the only amino acid of the group that is not chiral, which means there is no enantiomer of glycine. With the prominent exception of collagen, which thirty five percent are glycine, most proteins contain only small amounts of it. As a solid, glycine is sweet tasting, crystalline and has no color. Despite being non-essential, because it can be biosynthesized from the amino acid serine, glycine has several important physiological functions, besides being a precursor to proteins. It is a biosynthetic intermediate of purines and the D-Aminolevulinic acid and it is an inhibitory neurotransmitter found in the central nervous system.

Lycopene, an antioxidant, consists of extremely effective disease fighting abilities for protecting the cells from free radicals. It not only helps in fighting diseases but also enhances the immune system. According to experts, this antioxidant can be useful in treating cardiovascular disease and prostrate cancer. On a daily basis, if you eat ten servings of food that contains Lycopene, it will help you curb the chances of getting prostrate cancer by 30%. It is also said to have protective effects on heart diseases. Based on a study it was found that men who had high amounts of lycopene in body fat were less prone to heart attacks. Since this antioxidant is not produced in the human body, you can acquire it through food items such as tomatoes, pink grapefruit and watermelon.
