• Choline

  Description:

  Choline is an essential nutrient that is found in many foods, including eggs, and is important for a number of bodily functions, including liver function, brain development, and nerve function. Choline is a precursor to acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that plays a role in memory, mood, and muscle control. Choline also helps to transport fats out of the liver, which may help to reduce the risk of liver disease. Choline supplements are available in different forms, including choline bitartrate, choline chloride, and phosphatidylcholine. Choline bitartrate is the most common form of choline supplement, but phosphatidylcholine is the form that is found naturally in foods.

  7-Keto DHEA

  Description:

  7-keto DHEA (7-oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone) is a metabolite of the hormone dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which is produced by the adrenal glands. It is often used as a non-hormonal supplement to promote weight loss, improve muscle mass and increase metabolism. Some studies have suggested that 7-keto DHEA may aid weight loss by increasing the activity of thermogenic enzymes, which are responsible for burning fat. It is also believed to increase muscle mass by stimulating protein synthesis and reducing muscle breakdown. Additionally, 7-keto DHEA may have antioxidant properties that could help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Unlike DHEA, 7-keto DHEA does not convert to estrogen or testosterone and does not activate androgen receptors, thus, it is not considered to have the same risks as DHEA supplements. However, more research is needed to confirm the safety and effectiveness of 7-keto DHEA as a supplement.

• Gymnema sylvestre

  Description:

  Gymnema (Gymnema sylvestre) is a plant species native to India and Africa that has been used traditionally in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries to treat a range of conditions, including diabetes, obesity, and digestive problems. Gymnema is thought to work by inhibiting the absorption of sugar in the intestines and by increasing the production of insulin in the pancreas. If applied topically to the tongue, it reduces the sweetness and bitter sensation of foods, which may deter excess sugar intake (the plant is sometimes referred to informally as 'the sugar destroyer'). One of the most popular natural medicines utilized for dietary supplements, an extract of the leaf (Gymnema leaf extract) is the most often standardized for use, although the root can be used as well.
