Calcium, a mineral vital to the human body, Calcium is necessary for many bodily functions, such as muscle contraction, and proper heart function.

Citrulline Malate is a mixture of the organic salt malate and amino acid citrulline. The inimitable combination provides athletes a potential way to perk up performance, postpone muscle fatigue, and speed up recovery. Citrulline Malate is helpful for everyone taking part in high-intensity workouts, along with cyclists, strength athletes, bodybuilders and some runners. Citrulline helps in the confiscation of endotoxins like ammonia and lactic acid, which can weaken exercise performance. These endotoxins are generated due to extreme physical activity, catabolic states and protein metabolism.

Di-Calcium Phosphate is a calcium supplement. Taking di-calcium phosphate can prevent osteorporosis. Although calcium is found in all dairy products like cottage cheese, cheese and yoghurt, milk etc. it is not sufficient to sustain the bones throughout our life beacuse calcium is essential for other things too; like for regulating blood pressure, skeletal maintainance, stimulation of hormone secretion and for controlling the heart beat. Calcium needs to be replenished continously as it gets flushed out from our body due to perspiration and toilet use. Di-calcium phosphate is available in the form of chewable tablets, tablets and in liquid form as well. It is also available in combination with minerals and vitamins. On an average an adult requires 1000 mg to 1200 mg of calcium everyday.

Glucuronolactone is produced in the human body by the metabolism of glucose in the liver. This naturally occurring chemical is an essential structural element of all connective tissues. Also found in plant gums, glucuronolactone speeds up the removal of harmful exogenic as well as endogenic substances to detoxify the body. This is used as an important ingredient in many popular energy drinks as it not only helps in fighting stress but also gives a sense of well being. MultiVit Rx can be a very healthy option if you want to take Glucuronolactone for enhancing your energy level. This metabolite has been clinically approved for reducing sleepiness. It can be extremely beneficial in enhancing memory, concentration and mental performance of a healthy individual. Deficiency of Glucuronolactone is very rare.

Glycerol Monostearate also referred to as GMS. It is that fat that is formed when glycerol is esterified with stearic acid. It occurs in the body naturally as a by-product of fats and it can also be found in certain fatty foods. Glycerol Monostearate increases the endurance by retaining water in the body. They glycerol helps lower the body temperature and delay fatigue while increasing the performance. It also helps in reducing the acidity that forms in the muscle. It also improves the absorption of other supplements by helping in the delivery the nutrients in the system. It is also ideal, in losing weight because it enhances the metabolism.

L-Isoleucine- The second of three branched chain amino acids it is important in blood sugar regulation and producing hemoglobin. After exercise, it is responsible for muscle recovery and important in the metabolism to produce energy.

L-Leucine is not prepared in the body but can be obtained through food items like brown rice, whole wheat bread and nuts or dietary supplements. It provides power and endurance. It ensures the well being of the lean muscle tissue, maintains the body’s nitrogen balance and supplies energy especially during exercise. It also assists the healing process and preserves and builds muscles. It is ideal for sportspersons. L-Leucine is also known to increase the secretion of Human Growth Hormone resulting in healthy joints, the reduction of body fat and slowing down of the aging process. It is also useful to people with Diabetes and kidney and liver problems. In the case of a deficiency, the body will not be able to use any proteins efficiently.

L-Tyrosine is a non essential amino acid occurring in the body. L-Tyrosine may be created from the synthesis of phenylalanine which is also an amino acid. It is one of the building blocks of proteins in the body. It is also a precursor for several neurotransmitters such as L-dopa, dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. It helps treat and prevent illness such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, depression and other such mood disorders. It also helps protect the body from free radical damages. It also helps protect the skin from UV rays damages on the skin by aiding in the production of melanin. It also helps in increasing the metabolic rate that speeds up muscle building and fat loss. It also increases the endurance.

L-Valine, an essential amino acid, promotes the smooth functioning of the body. It is derived from animal and vegetable proteins like seafood, poultry, meat, cottage cheese, sesame seeds, dry whole lentils and roasted peanuts. It regulates the immune system, assists protein synthesis and glucose metabolism. It also promotes growth of muscles and repair of tissues that get damaged due to stress, disease, surgery or injury. It maintains the body’s nitrogen level and energizes the muscles. L-Valine helps detoxify the body against ammonia and prevents muscle wasting in diabetics. It assists in correcting drug addiction related amino acid deficiencies, gallbladder and liver diseases and is linked with treating neurological conditions and brain damage due to alcohol intake. One should consult a physician before consuming the supplement.

Magnesium is another mineral which is deemed essential for all biological life. As an essential part of basic nucleic acid, magnesium ions, together with phosphate ions, are also required for over 300 catalytic reactions of enzymes. Any enzymes synthesizing or utilizing adenosine triphosphate require a magnesium ion. Incredulously enough, magnesium deficiency is the most widespread deficiency, affecting a third of the population in the United States only, with third world countries surpassing the count easily. Being also essential, together with calcium and phosphorus, in the skeletal structure, magnesium deficiency is viewed as a main factor in ailments such as osteoporosis. Naturally available through cereals, green leafy vegetables, nuts, spices, tea, cocoa and coffee, magnesium is available as a supplement in magnesium oxide and magnesium citrate form, whereby the latter is viewed as more bioavailable.

Magnesium Chloride is a chemical compound extracted from natural mineral bischofite. Its chemical formula in salt form is MgCl2 and in hydrated form is MgCl2 (H2O) x. The hydrates of Magnesium chloride are produced from brine or sea water. Magnesium chloride is used as a precursor to other magnesium compounds on a substantial scale. It is used in supplements to fulfill the deficiency of magnesium because it’s less laxative then magnesium sulfate, and more bioavailable than other magnesium compounds. Magnesium chloride has antiseptic properties and research is also being done on its effectiveness against tumors when used as a feed additive.

Maltodextrin is an easily digested carbohydrate.

Palatinose is also known as Isomaltulose. It is a low glycemic and low insulinemic carbohydrate that is chemically derived from sucrose. It is absorbed in the small intestine as disaccharides of glucose and fructose. Palatinose gives a prolonged supply of energy. It works by allowing the glucose enter the blood at a very slow rate that prevents the sudden changes in the glucose and insulin levels. This also helps maintain a balanced blood sugar level. It also inhibits the formation of caries in the teeth because unlike ordinary sugars such as sucrose, maltose and glucose; they are not transformed into acidic substance that causes the formation of plaque on the surface of teeth.

Phosphate (Phosphorus) is the chemical element with the atomic number 15 in the periodic table. It is not found as a free element anywhere in the world. In biology and biochemistry it may be the most important element, being present in all living cells of living species. It is present in the DNA, in the RNA, in ATP, but is also found in cell membranes in form of phospholipids. It is also present in the bones, where it builds calcium phosphate salts, responsible for strong bones. Apatite is a collection of phosphate minerals which are generally found in bones and teeth; namely bromapatite, fluorapatite, chlorapatite and hydroxyapatite. Several phosphates are being added to body building supplements and powders, intended to aid in skeletal and cellular strength improvement.

Sodium Chloride

Vitamin B12 is a water-souble member of the vitamin B complex. Requirements are in the microgram range, which is lower than the milligram range of the other B vitamins. Vitamin B12 is involved in the production of red blood cells and is usually known as the anti-anemia vitamin.

Vitamin B3, commonly called Niacin, exists in two main forms, niacin and niacinamide. The niacin form produces a flushing and itching of the skin when taken at higher dosages and this feeling is only temporary.

Vitamin B6 is one of the most important vitamins that play an essential role in the development and keeping the immune system healthy. Vitamin B6 is water soluble that contains pyridoxal, pyridoxine, and pyridoxamine. It is needed by the body in various functions such as red blood cell metabolism and conversion of the amino acid tryptophan to the vitamin niacin. It is also important in ensuring the efficient function of the nervous and immune systems. It helps manufacture proteins and neurotransmitters, haemoglobin, and prostaglandins. It also helps balance the hormones. Vitamin B6 is known to help give relief to women suffering from menopausal symptoms, and premenstrual syndromes. It also helps reduce the incidence of breast cancer.

Vitamin B9 or Folic Acid, is essential as it assists the formation of red blood cells in the body and genetic material within every cell. It helps in metabolism of proteins and prevention of anemia and is vital for cell growth and division. Folic acid is an important nutrient for pregnant women to prevent congenital malformation in the fetus. It reduces the risk of brain and spinal cord defects, heart defects, limb defects, urinary tract abnormalities and cleft palate in the fetus. It is highly beneficial if taken prior to and during the first month after conception. In men, folic acid reduces chromosomal defects in the sperm. Spinach, lettuce, peas, beans, sunflower seeds, asparagus, baker’s yeast, fortified cereal products and liver are rich in folic acid.

Vitamin C is L-ascorbic acid, or the active component of Vitamin C. Ascorbate, which is an ion of the ascorbic acid, is required for many metabolic reactions and is manufactured internally by most organisms, except humans. It is an essential nutrient and needs to be provided through nutrition. While oranges were traditionally deemed a good source of Vitamin C, the amount provided by an orange is dwarfed by the amount provided by the kakadu plum the richest Vitamin C plant resource of the world. Other notable sources are red peppers, parsley, Kiwifruit, Guava, Broccoli, Camu Camu, rose hip, Jujube, papaya, strawberries, lemon, melon and similar. Vitamin C is essential for tyrosine, carnitine and collagen synthesis, is the most widely available antioxidant and furthermore is vital for blood vessels, cartilage and scar tissue.

Waxy Maize Starch (WMS) is a complex, long-chain, high molecular weight (much higher then dextrose and maltodextrin) carbohydrate. It is sugar and lactose free. It contains Amylopectin (95-99%) and a low percentage of Amylose (1-5%). WMS is taken as a supplement by athletes because it’s claimed that it restores glycogen levels faster than dextrose. It is taken post workout as an insulin-boosting carbohydrate source with a fast acting whey isolate or whey hydrolysate. Since WMS has a high molecular weight, it is digested and absorbed very rapidly, which in turn reduces the risk of stomach discomfort.
