Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG), which is also known under the name epigallocatechin 3-gallate, is the ester of catechin, gallic acid and epigallocatechin. It is found in tea and is believed to be one of the most important antioxidants today. Epigallocatechin 3-gallate is currently investigated for the inhibitory effects on the life cycle of HIV-1 virus, the human immunodeficiency virus type 1, which causes AIDS. Although EGCG has shown significant benefits in laboratory studies, the clinical trials on humans have not been conducted yet. The antioxidant qualities of EGCG and the associated reduction of free radicals have made epigallocatechin 3-gallate a very popular supplement, especially with the body building and athletic communities. It is furthermore suggested that EGCG has therapeutic potential with several forms of cancer and in setting of liver fibrosis.

Evodia Rutaecarpa contains the extracts of the plant Tetradium, which is a genus in the family Rutaceae, also known as the Bee bee tree, or Evodia. This extracts contain a chemical which is called evodiamine, which seems to influence the uncoupling protein 1, also called thermogenin, which is involved in the process allowing energy to be burned as heat. Evodiamine is actually a bioactive alkaloid, used by the traditional Chinese medicine for ages under the name Wu Chu Yu in connection with weight control and fat burning solutions for overweight to obese people.

This extract not only can interact with UCP1, a thermogenic protein, which as a consequence burns energy as heat, but also has shown in studies on mice to reduce the fat uptake. Evodiamine seems to increase the resting temperature of humans, whereby increased fat and calories are burned in order to supply the heat. Deemed a breakthrough in thermogenesis, evodiamine is subject of several clinical studies.

Green tea extract contains a potent antioxidant, EGCG, which is over 200 times more powerful than vitamin E in neutralizing the pro-oxidants and free radicals that attack lipids in the brain.

The cognitive effects of guarana are well documented, but the appetite suppressant qualities of guarana are relatively new. A study has proven that a combination of yerba mate, guarana and damiana leads to a tenfold weight loss quantity when compared with a placebo.

Vitamin B6- There are three traditionally considered forms of vitamin B6: pyridoxal (PL), pyridoxine (PN), pyridoxamine (PM). The phosphate ester (PLP) has a leading role in metabolism of human body. It is obtained from the diet since humans cannot manufacture it. PLP is crucial in over 100 enzymes that enable important chemical reactions in the human body. In the brain, the manufacture of neurotransmitters like serotonin from tryptophan is made possible by PLP. PLP is also a coenzyme in the production of the iron coating component of hemoglobin called heme. Signs of vitamin B6 deficiency include irritability, depression and confusion, inflammation of the tongue, sores or ulcers of the mouth and the skin at the corner of the mouth.
