Alpha Lipoic Acid is said to be a powerful antioxidant that aids in the neutralization of free radicals i.e unstable molecules that cause damage, within the body. It is easily absorbed by the gut whether taken in food or as a supplement and is used to detoxify the liver by increasing levels of glutathione which then go on to dissolve toxic substances contained in liver cells. It helps vitamins such as C and E be more efficient and is particularly efficient at alleviating the symptoms of glaucoma and generally protecting the lens and retina from degenerative processes. It can be especially beneficial for those with raised blood sugar levels as in diabetes, anyone with a high level of cholesterol or who has hardening of the arteries or early stage cataracts.

Biotin is required for the fatty acids and glucose formation so that essential energy is produced. Biotin also assists in the metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. Biotin is available in food naturally and the dietary sources of biotin comprise of brewer’s yeast, cauliflower, bananas, egg yolks, salmon, liver, sardines, mushrooms and legumes. The deficiency of biotin is uncommon. The other possibilities for having biotin as deficiency is genetic biotin deficiency, surgical stomach removal, excessive consumption of alcohol and infant dermatitis. Biotin deficiency leads to hair loss, skin rash, heart problems and high cholesterol. Biotin supplements are effective for eczema, acne, diaper rash, brittle nails and hair loss. People having a history of seizures should avoid using biotin. This is a B vitamin that helps in converting food to energy. It is mandatory that minimum 30 mg is taken daily as there are adequate health benefits. Normal biotin intake strengthens fingernails and also controls blood sugar levels.

Coenzyme Q10- The vitamin-like Coenzyme Q10 or (CoQ10) is a fat soluble substance, found in all human cells. It acts as an antioxidant thus helping the body to get rid of free radicals and facilitating biochemical reactions that produce energy in the body cells. It is found mainly in the mitochondria where the cells make energy. Since mitochondria are found in abundance in the heart and liver cells, these cells naturally contain CoQ10 too. Needless to say, those who suffer from heart disease are the one who have relatively low CoQ10 too, as the heart cannot function to its full capacity if CoQ10 is not adequately present. CoQ10 deficiency may also give rise to periodontal disease though there isn’t enough evidence to prove so. However, it has been found that those suffering from this disease have relatively less CoQ10.

Green Tea Extract- For thousands of years, Green Tea has been used for the purpose of medicine in countries such as China and India. The leaves of the Camellia Sinensis plant are allowed to dry after being lightly steamed. The leaves are steamed as the properties of the plant are retained through this procedure.

Panax Ginseng (Asian ginseng), which is also called as Korean ginseng and Chinese ginseng, belongs to the same Araliaceae family that American ginseng and Siberian ginseng belong to. It is harvested in the fall and the root of plants, preferably above six years of age, is used for treating various conditions. These include erectile dysfunction, male infertility, and chronic fatigue syndrome. It is also believed that prolonged use of Asian ginseng can alleviate risk of some forms of cancer. However, failing to take it in recommended amounts may lead to certain side effects too and in rare instances, cause over-stimulation and insomnia. The risk of over-stimulation as well as gastrointestinal upset can be more if it is taken along with caffeine. Some women have also experienced menstrual abnormalities and breast tenderness after prolonged use of Asian ginseng.

Rhodiola can help increase resistance against fatigue and can reduce stress. Classified as adaptogens among the herbs, it prevents different harmful impacts caused by physical and mental stress and illness. Rhodiola Rosea is particularly helpful for athletes because of its adaptogenic properties and its capability to enhance efficiency of mitochondrial respiration in skeletal muscle. It also improves mental work capacity and resists mental fatigue. Research has found that it helps protect against cancer. It can also be beneficial for people who suffer from high altitude sickness. Its intake can better endurance exercise capacity in young people and may also benefit people suffering from certain kinds of glucose level and cardiac conditions. Rhodiola Rosea helps prevent ischemic brain damage development.

Silica is silicon dioxide, a trace mineral found in bones, teeth, skin, eyes, glands and organs. It also helps keep skin elastic. Silica works with calcium to maintain bone strength.

Taurine is basically an amino acid that is not formed by the body. It is found freely in the bloodstream and in tissues. It is also found in abundance in the skeletal system, the heart and the nervous system. During times of extreme physical activity, the amounts of taurine in the body are depleted. Taurine has a tendency to act as a metabolic transmitter and can also be used as a detoxifying agent. It has been added to a number of products for infants as well. The popular energy drink ‘Red Bull’ is well known for its taurine content. Taurine is also recommended for use by people who suffer from manic depression. Taurine is tested and has proven to be an extremely safe dietary supplement.
