Amino Acids
Amino acids are the chemical units or building blocks of the body that make up proteins. Protein substances make up the muscles, tendons, organs, glands, nails, and hair, and the growth, repair, and maintenance of all cells are dependent upon them. Next to water, protein makes up the greatest portion of our body weight. The amino acids included are as follows:
Arginine aids in weight loss, as it facilitates an increase in muscle mass and a reduction of body fat. It also assists in the release of growth hormones that are crucial for optimal muscle growth and tissue repair.*
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid found in muscles; it helps build and maintain muscle tissue, and it also helps prevent muscle wasting, decreases sugar cravings, and the desire for alcohol.*
Glycine retards muscle degeneration and it improves glycogen storage, freeing up glucose for energy needs.*
Ornithine helps to prompt the release of growth hormones that promote the metabolism of excess body fat (this effect is enhanced if combined with Arginine).*
Valine is needed for muscle metabolism and coordination, tissue repair, and for the maintenance of proper nitrogen balance in the body; it is also used as an energy source by muscle tissue.*
Serine is needed for the proper metabolism of fats and fatty acids, the growth of muscle, and the maintenance of a healthy immune system.*
Tyrosine is important to overall metabolism; it is a precursor of adrenaline and dopamine, which regulate mood and stimulate metabolism and the nervous system; it also acts as a mood elevator, suppresses the appetite, and helps reduce body fat.*
Glutamic Acid is an excitatory neurotransmitter for the central nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord; it is important in the metabolism of sugars and fats.*
These other natural supplements are also included to aid in increasing energy, stamina and endurance, reducing fat, improving mood, and providing additional nutrients to support the PS1000 plan.*
Maca is a Peruvian root known to help improve energy and stamina, improve the quality of sleep, and reduce stress. It contains many fatty acids, minerals and vitamins such as calcium, magnesium, silica, amino acids, antioxidants, alkaloids and sterols; Maca can be an aid in any diet.*
Beta-Alanine is a naturally occurring beta amino acid that promotes high energy levels and increases endurance. It does this by promoting carnosine, a substance that has a critical role in muscle endurance because it protects against muscle failure. Beta-Alanine has been shown to help increase strength and reduce body fat.*
Rhodiola, more commonly known as goldenrod, is a plant that is known to improve physical and mental performance, reduce fatigue, enhance mood, and improve endurance. Rhodiola is also known for helping to strengthen the nervous system, enhance memory, aid weight reduction, and reduce recovery time for illness or injury.*
African Mango (Irvingia gabonensis) enhances the activity of a the hormone Leptin that plays a crucial role in controlling appetite and optimizing metabolism.*
Glucomannan is a soluble, fermentable, and highly viscous dietary fiber derived from the root of Amorphophallus konjac (aka elephant yam or konjac plant) and is native to Asia. When consumed, it absorbs water in the digestive tract, reducing absorption of carbohydrates and cholesterol by the body, supporting the use of glucomannan for cholesterol reduction, diabetes, and weight loss.*
The vitamin B12 Complex is added to the PS1000 plan to increase energy and raise the metabolism. B vitamins help the body convert food (carbohydrates) into fuel (glucose), which is burned to produce energy. These B vitamins, often referred to as B complex vitamins, also help the body metabolize fats and protein.*
Methyl B-12, derived from methylcobalamin and has a much higher bioavailability than the form most widely available in supplements, cyanocobalamin.*
Their B6 is derived from Pyridoxal 5 Phosphate (P-5-P) and is five times more absorbable than other B6s. B6 is required for proper absorption of vitamin B12.*
Niacin (Vitamin B3) known to help produce hormones that are beneficial to the body. Niacin helps to improve circulation and reduce cholesterols and is important to the health of the nervous system, digestive system, skin, eyes, and hair.*
Vitamin E is added, as the conversion of B12 into its biologically active form requires vitamin E.*
Zinc supports the production of hydrochloric acid and intrinsic factor in the stomach, both of which are needed to convert some of the B12 from food sources.*
Potassium is essential for proper functioning of the heart, kidneys, muscles, nerves, and digestive system.*
