Vitamin B3 (niacin) helps turn the food you eat into energy. Niacin is important for the development and function of the cells in your body.

Niacin contributes to normal psychological function, energy-yielding metabolism, functioning of the nervous system, the maintenance of mucous membranes, the maintenance of skin and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) helps turn the food you eat into the energy you need. It’s important for many functions in the body, especially making and breaking down fats.

Vitamin B5 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, mental performance, synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D and some neurotransmitters, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.

Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin)

Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that helps keep your body’s blood and nerve cells healthy and helps make DNA, the genetic material in all of your cells. Vitamin B12 also helps prevent megaloblastic anemia, a blood condition that makes people tired and weak.

Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, functioning of the nervous system, homocysteine metabolism, psychological function, red blood cell formation, function of the immune system, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and it has a role in the process of cell division

Folic acid contributes to normal psychological function, function of the immune system, the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, homocysteine metabolism, amino acid synthesis, blood formation, the process of cell division and maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.

Choline is a nutrient found in many foods. Your brain and nervous system need it to regulate memory, mood, muscle control, and other functions. You also need choline to form the membranes that surround your body’s cells. You can make a small amount of choline in your liver, but most of the choline in your body comes from the food you eat.

Choline contributes to normal lipid metabolism (the breakdown and storage of fats for energy). Getting enough choline is necessary for proper liver function and to prevent Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Some studies have found a link between higher intakes of choline (and higher blood levels of choline) and better cognitive function (such as verbal and visual memory). 

Iodine is a mineral found in some foods. Iodine contributes to normal cognitive function, energy-yielding metabolism, the production of thyroid hormones and thyroid function

The body needs iodine to make thyroid hormones. Thyroid hormones control the body’s metabolism and many other important functions. The body also needs thyroid hormones for proper bone and brain development during pregnancy and infancy.

Zinc is found in cells throughout the body and contributes to normal DNA synthesis, acid-base metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, cognitive function, fertility and reproduction, macronutrient metabolism, metabolism of fatty acids, metabolism of vitamin A, protein synthesis, the maintenance of bones, the maintenance of hair, nails and skin, the maintenance of testosterone levels in the blood, the maintenance of vision, the function of the immune system, the protection of cells from oxidative stress and it has a role in the process of cell division

Amino Acid L-Tyrosine

This amino acid is precursor of several important neurotransmitters, including dopamine, that are important contributors to mood, cognitive performance as in combating stress.

L-tyrosine is also a precursor to the thyroid hormone, thyroxine (also known as T4) and supplementation may have a positive effect on thyroid hormone levels which help to contribute to an increased metabolic rate.

N-Acetyl L-Carnitine: (ALCAR, ALC or LAC) is a synthesized version of L-Carnitine, which is a derivative of the amino acids lysine and methionine.

Carnitine (generic name) is naturally present in animal products such as meat, fish, poultry, and milk and dairy products; small amounts are present in some plant foods. Almost all cells of the body contain carnitine, which transports fatty acids into the mitochondria, the power plants of our cells.

ALCAR helps:

Brain energy metabolism: LCAR helps the transport of fatty acids into mitochondria where they are used for energy metabolism. Mitochondria are the power plants of the body as their primary function is to generate the energy necessary to power our cells. Fuelling your cells power plants can boost physical and mental energy.

Neurotransmitters: ALCAR is a necessary ingredient for acetylcholine formation. Which boosts memory, mental alertness and fluid thought.

Brain optimisation: The antioxidant properties of Acetyl-L-Carnitine provides neuroprotective qualities, boosts Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), and promotes cerebral blood circulation
