NUTRITIONAL BOOSTWeight LossFat Burners - Burn factor is a unique combination of L-Carnitine, Choline, Inositol, Chromium Picolinate, Kelp, L-Tyrosine, White Willow Bark, and Citrus Aurantium. Fat burners help break down, transport, and metabolize fat cells. Carb Blocker - The scientifically designed, all natural ingredients may reduce caloric intake. Ultimate carb/fat blocker includes chitosan, which can absorb up to five times its weight in fat. In addition, phaseolus vulgaris has shown the ability to prevent the breakdown of starches. Chromium and vanadium are included, which may help regulate blood sugar levels. Caffeine - Caffeine is a natural substance found in at least 60 plants. Caffeine is absorbed well by the stomach and intestine, and blood levels peak 45-60 minutes after ingestion. Caffeine ingestion can benefit endurance performance when consumed in proper amounts. L-Carnitine - L-Carnitine is synthesized in the body from the amino acid lysine and methionine. L-Carnitine is widely used for burning fat, increasing energy, and improving resistance to muscle fatigue. General NutritionMulti-Vitamin - The body requires a good balance of a wide variety of nutrients. A multi-vitamin and mineral supplement should be what you use to provide a foundation for living a healthier and longer life. Antioxidant - Found in many fruits, vegetables, plants, and trees, antioxidants have hundreds of protective nutrients that protect our bodies from "free radicals" that enter our body's cells and tissues. Antioxidants reduce stress ulcers, improve the circulatory system, and help collagen fibers keep their elasticity. Fiber - Fiber is found in many foods, and it helps lower the blood cholesterol level and stabilize blood sugar levels. It helps prevent colon cancer, constipation, obesity, and many other disorders. Glucosamine - Glucosamine occurs naturally in the body and has proven effective in easing osteoarthritis pain, rehabilitating cartilage, renewing synovial fluid, and repairing joints that have been damaged from osteoarthritis. Calcium - Calcium is the most common mineral in the human body. Approximately 99% of total body calcium is in the skeleton and teeth and 1% in blood and soft tissues. Calcium is also needed for muscle contraction, blood vessel contraction and expansion, the secretion of hormones and enzymes, and sending messages through the nervous system. Strength and RecoveryCreatine - Creatine monohydrate is a nutrient that is found in a variety of foods. The richest source is lean red meat. Creatine is one of the muscle’s main energy sources and when converted in the muscle tissue to phosphocreatine during exercise it can provide sudden bursts of energy. Glutamine - Glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid found in the muscles of the body. Because it can readily pass the blood-brain barrier, it is known as brain fuel. L-Glutamine decreases sugar cravings and the desire for alcohol. HMB - HMB is a metabolite of the branched-chain amino acid leucine. It is found in both plants and animals and is particularly concentrated in alfalfa and grapefruit. It has been suggested that HMB is effective at building strength, increasing lean body mass and enhancing recovery because it guards against or slows muscle proteolysis (protein breakdown). Nitric Oxide - Nitric Oxide is a free form gas that is produced in the body and is used by the body to communicate with other cells. Nitric oxide is the muscle's "cell-signaling" molecule responsible for blood flow (hemodilation), oxygen delivery, glucose uptake, muscle velocity, power output, and muscle growth. Energy and VitalityGinseng - An herb that helps normalize various body functions, ginseng is widely used for energy, mental activity, stress, and blood pressure. It is excellent for strengthening the whole body. Bee Pollen - Described in ancient writings as "super food," bee pollen is nearly 35% protein and contains nearly every known nutrient required for a balanced diet: 22 amino acids, 27 minerals, most of the known vitamins, and many enzymes. Spirulina - Nature's richest and most complete source of total organic nutrition, spirulina is extremely high in protein (65%-70%) and contains over 100 nutrients. The power food of the future, spirulina is packed with pro vitamin A and many B vitamins. Spirulina activates the immune system and helps to protect from degenerative diseases. Ginkgo Biloba - Best known for its ability to enhance circulation. It has the ability to squeeze through even the narrowest of blood vessels to the heart, brain, and all other body parts It also increases memory. Caffeine - Caffeine is a natural substance found in at least 60 plants. Caffeine is absorbed well by the stomach and intestine, and blood levels peak 45-60 minutes after ingestion. Caffeine ingestion can benefit endurance performance when consumed in proper amounts. FormulasEnergizing - This is Smoothie Factory's unique complex carbohydrate blend.

Meal Replacement - Smoothie Factory's meal replacement formula provides a balance of nutrients similar to those found in a prepared meal, but with fewer calories.
Protein - Egg - Egg protein contains amino acids essential for muscle repair. Smoothie Factory's egg protein is a creamy blend of egg albumin that mixes easily. Protein - Soy - Soy is a rich source of healthy omega-3 fatty acids and is an excellent source of calcium, iron, B vitamins, and zinc. Soy may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease by lowering the blood cholesterol level. Protein - Whey - Whey protein is among the very best protein sources known to man. Whey is more digestible/absorbable than soy protein and has a slightly better essential amino acid (EAA) and branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) profile. |
