Calcium Phosphate

Di-Potassium Phosphate is a water soluble salt commonly used as food additives, fertilizers and as a buffering agent. It basically contains potassium and phosphorus. The human body required di-potassium phosphate to maintain osmotic balance in the interstitial fluid. It is also required for neuron functioning in the brain, for muscle contraction and for electrolyte balance in the body. People suffering from kidney infection or disease must limit their intake of this substance as it the kidney which is responsible for the secretion of potassium and too much of di-potassium phosphate can prove fatal. Di-potassium phosphate is added to soft drinks to give it a sharp flavor and also because it minimizes bacteria and mold growth, which if not will multiply rapidly in a sweet solution. Di-potassium phosphate is present in fruits such as avocadoes, bananas, tomatoes and in orange.

Di-Sodium Phosphate is a sodium salt of orthophosphoric acid and is used as an antioxidant synergist, stabiliser and buffering agent in food. It is also used as an emulsifier in the manufacture of pasteurised processed cheese.

Garcinia Cambogia, native to Southeast Asia, is a tropical fruit which belongs to the citrus family. This Indian and African fruit is extremely popular for its extract hydroxycitric acid. Without suppressing your appetite or stimulating the brain, this acid acts as an effective weight loss supplement. It not only provides the required energy but also improves the signaling system of the body. When the signaling system gets better, the brain is informed by the body that it is full. This system is not very active in obese people, which is why they eat a lot. Garnicia Cambogia extract of hydroxycitric acid is more effectual when used with chromium. The intake of chromium in western countries is very low, due to which people become diabetic or obese.

Gelatin constitutes the shells of pharmaceutical capsules in order to make them easier to swallow. Gelatin is a translucent, colourless, brittle, nearly tasteless solid substance, extracted from the collagen inside animals' connective tissue. It has been commonly used as a gelling agent in food, pharmaceutical, photography, and cosmetic manufacturing.

Guggulsterone- Commiphora wightii, or the so called Guggul tree is a flowering shrub or rather a small tree which can grow up to a size of 4 meters. Once very common in India, it is now there listed as endangered, but not in northern Africa or elsewhere in central Asia. It was very popular in the Indian Ayurvedic medicine, but also currently in the western medicine for treating of heart problems. The hydrocarbon secretion of Guggul contains a plant sterol, guggulsterone, which in the human body seems to act as an antagonist to the farnesoid X receptor. Furthermore, guggulsterone is active in increasing the natural thyroid production. This in turn stimulates the metabolism and may raise the body temperature, burning stored excess fat.

L-Tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid, which is used by the cells in order to synthesize the proteins and appears to help stabilize ones mood during periods of high stress levels.

Magnesium Stearate is coommonly used as a filling agent in the manufacture of capsules and tablets, such as vitamins, the source of this ingredient is typically bovine. However, there is an increasing number of vegetarian options in which the product specifically indicates it contains magnesium stearate from vegetable sources.

Phosphatidylcholine - a major component of biological membranes and can be isolated from egg yolk or soy beans. This extraction of the Phosphatidylcholine is done using hexane. Phosphatidylcholine is in fact a primary dietary source of choline, an essential nutrient which can also be synthesised by the body. Phosphatidylcholine is composed of a phosphate group, 2 fatty acids and choline. The fatty acids are what make Phosphatidylcholine valuable for promoting health. Phosphatidylcholine is important because it provides the body with choline which is required for the proper metabolism of fats as well as regulating the movement of fats in and out of cells. Choline is also need to maintain cell membrane integrity. Phosphatidylcholine also increases the solubility of cholesterol and hence decreases the chances of atherosclerosis.

Sodium Phosphate is a phosphate supplement. It does not function as a potassium supplement. It aids in the building of strong bones and teeth (with calcium). Also known to Promote energy metabolism and promote growth, maintenance and repair of all body tissues. Sodium Phosphate buffers body fluids for acid-base balance and acidifies urine and reduces possibility of kidney stones.
