Amino Acids

Acetyl L-Carnitine is a powerful acetylated form of L-Carnitine that crosses the blood-brain-barrier, where it promotes acetylcholine synthesis and neuronal energetics. Acetylcholine has been identified a crucial neurotransmitter for learning and memory. Acetyl L-Carnitine also delivers fatty acids to the mitochondria to promote ATP synthesis via beta-oxidation, known to support energy levels and stamina.

D-Ribose is a non-glycemic sugar (does not increase blood glucose levels), specific for supporting the hexamonophophate shunt. Essentially, D-Ribose helps to unblock a natural limitation in energy synthesis, by providing a building block for this process. D-Ribose has been shown in several clinical trials to reduce the symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia.

These are important for adrenal gland health, a healthy mood and to support natural energy levels.

L-Theanine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid naturally found in green tea, shown to promote alpha brain wave activity and support mental relaxation. This rare amino acid is hard to obtain in appreciable quantities without the consumption of a large amount of premium-grade green tea, making supplementation a simple solution.
