3-Hydroxy-4-Methoxyphenyl is a natural plant chemical or phytochemical that is found in the plant cell walls of most plants. It is also known as Ferulic acid and is a building block for aromatic compounds. The Ferulic acid name is derived from the giant fennel plant which is where it was first discovered. In the plant cell it is used to provide cell wall rigidity and is considered an antioxidant in humans due to it being in the phenol class of chemicals. Ferulic acid has been the focus of much research and has potential as not only a cancer preventer but also an active cancer fighter.

Alpha-GPC (alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine), also otherwise known as choline alfoscerate, is a natural choline compound found in the brain as well as milk. Since Alpha-GPC is easily absorbed, it rapidly delivers choline to the brain across the blood-brain barrier and thus renders significant health benefits. Alpha-GPC not only helps to increase hGH naturally but also enhances mental focus and cognitive functions as well as improves balance and coordination. Thus, it is also widely used as a nootropic dietary supplement. Studies indicate its efficacy for treatments of cognitive disorders like stroke and Alzheimer’s disease. Alpha-GPC, used in supplements is obtained from soy phospholipids such as soy lecithin.

Epimedium, also popularly known as horny goat weed is a genus of herbaceous perennials belonging to the family Berberidaceae. The plant is found to possess aphrodisiac properties. Legend has it that a Chinese goat herder observed and reported increased sexual activity in his heard after it consumed the plant, hence the name. Its active ingredient is icariin. This ingredient has been reported to have a number of effects on the body. It inhibits the degradation of cyclic guanosine mono phosphate cGMP by PDE5 in the blood vessels supplying the corpus cavernosum of the penis. cGMP is the activated form of GMP produced by the release of nitric oxide in the vessels and relaxes the smooth muscle tissue resulting in the improvement in blood flow and erection. It also acts to increase mental faculties.

N-Acetyl-5-Methoxytryptamine is more commonly known as the hormone melatonin, a naturally produced chemical messenger made by the pinealocytes, the cells in the pineal gland, which is located in the brain. Melatonin is involved in the circadian cycle, where it is believed that it chemically lowers the body temperature and causes drowsiness. The pineal gland produces melatonin only when it is dark, i.e. during the night. It is furthermore believed that melatonin interacts with leptin, whereby the leptin levels are lowered. Actually it was found that the interaction with insulin stimulated the leptin levels, which seems to be responsible for appetite suppression during sleep. Further investigation provided evidence that melatonin displays strong antioxidant properties. N-Acetyl-5-Methoxytryptamine, or melatonin, has been studied extensively for treatment of many diseases, including treatment of drug abuse, cancer, seasonal affective disorder and depression.

Testofen, derived from the well-known herb Fenugreek, seems to be a natural solution to promoting healthy testosterone levels as well as immune and libido functions. It contains over 100 phytochemical constituents, among those are Furostanol Saponins and Steroidal Saponins. Many studies have been done that show fenugreek to be supportive of healthy sugar levels and lactation. The libido benefits occur for both men and women who consume the compound. Standardized for “Fenuside,” it contains potent bioactive compounds like protodioscin and steroidal saponins. This natural testosterone booster acts on the adrenals and the pituitary gland to stimulate natural androgen production.
