Caffeine- The bitter, white crystalline xanthine alkaloid caffeine is found in tea, coffee, soft drinks, chocolates, pain relievers, and a variety of over the counter medications.

CLA is the abbreviation for Conjugated linoleic acids. It belongs to the linoleic acid group. These acids are mainly found in dairy products and meat. Conjugated linoleic acids have been said to have antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. Research has been conducted on mice and rats to see whether these acids can help hinder the growth of tumors in mammary, colon and skin tissues. Studies are also being conducted on whether conjugated linoleic acids can help reduce abdominal fat. Although, some researchers are of the opinion that supplements containing CLA may have certain side effects. It is believed that these supplements when taken by over weight people might tend to increase the insulin resistance, thus resulting in high chances of developing diabetes. This is said to be one of the major side effects of CLA.

Dicaffeine Malate is actually a combination of caffeine and malic acid. Malic acid in turn is won out of Apple Juice and is a food additive with the E number E296. In green apples, the sour taste is due to malic acid. When cocaine was outlawed, The Coca-Cola Company introduced dicaffeine malate as the replacement. It is a stimulant, much like caffeine, but apparently gentler on the digestive tract. Many traits associated with regular caffeine are found in this caffeine salt, but through the interaction with malic acid, additional features have been observed. Dicaffeine malate is a very common ingredient in dietary supplements, it is supposed to optimize energy levels, increase mental focus and cognitive awareness, but also is able to stimulate thermogenesis.

Evodiamine- Tetradii Fructus, the fruit of the evodia plant, also known as Tetradium rutaecarpa, contains an active element that has recently been identified as evodiamine. This chemical compound is believed to be somewhat similar to capsaicin, the active compound found in the chili peppers. Some studies suggested that this vanilloid receptor agonist may interact with thermogenin, otherwise known as the uncoupling protein 1, UCP1, which is able to generate heat by a mechanism called thermogenesis. Tetradium rutaecarpa has been traditionally used in Chinese medicine for weight loss purposes and current studies seem to verify this information. Evodiamine has been embraced as a dietary supplement directed at weight loss, predominantly by the body building circles. This supplement is deemed to have energy burning and fat reducing, as well as diuretic properties.

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.

Guggulsterone is a plant sterol found in the resin of the guggul plant, Commiphora mukul. It acts as an antagonist of the farnesoid X receptor, which was earlier believed to result in decreased cholesterol synthesis in the liver.

L-Taurine , which contains cysteine and methoinine is an essential amino acid. It acts as a diuretic by maintaining the level of magnesium and potassium in our cells while purging sodium. It improves the functioning of kidney and gets rid of fluid accumulation and swelling and thus keeps our body away from toxicity. It maintains a good balance of calcium in our body and strenghtens the heart muscles too. L-Taurine is also used in the treatment of progressive eye conditions, hypertension, memory loss, cystic fibrosis and in atherosclerosis. It is often mixed in energy drinks because while working out the level of L-taurine drops in the skeletan muscle, L-taurine supplements lowers the level of exhaustion and improves endurance. Besides being found in meat and egg yolks it is abundantly found in shellfish.

Naringin, which is a citrus flavanoid that is found in grapefruit. Naringin is commonly used in energy supplements as it may extend the duration of the effects of caffeine.

Phosphatidylserine- Due to the physiological effect on the nerve cells, Phosphatidylserine supplement has gained tremendous popularity in the last few years. It is a phospholipid, a molecule used in cell membranes of human body. In the brain it used for releasing neurotransmitters dopamine and acetylcholine. With age, the level of Phosphatidylserine decreases in the body and due to this cognitive impairment like Alzheimer and memory problems takes place. According to experts, the cell membranes of the brain get a boost with Phosphatidylserine supplements. It also affects the nerve activity and brings down the level of stress hormones. Initially, these were derived from bovine cortex but due to the transfer of infectious diseases, soy derived supplement is being considered a safer alternative. You can find Phosphatidylserine in meat but it is also found in innards like liver kidney and the brain.

Sesame Seeds, also called Sesamun indicum, are a supply of magnesium, manganese, copper, calcium, vitamin B1, iron, phosphorous, zinc and dietary fiber. Sesame seeds also contain two unique substances: sesamin and sesamolin, which are beneficial fibers called lignans that increase vitamin E in the body. Sesamin has also been found to protect the liver from oxidative damage.

Synephrine HCL- Designed primarily to encourage fat loss. This is achieved by stimulating the beta-3 receptors. Doing so increases the metabolic rate leading to fat loss. Synephrine is a stimulant similar to caffeine and ephedrine and it is believed to provide an energy boost, suppress appetite and increase metabolism. The combination of all leads to burning more calories. Studies have stated that synephrine stimulates fat metabolism without the usual negative cardiovascular side effects. The effectiveness of synephrine is increased by combining it with HCL. This allows for increased absorption and more solubility in water. However regardless of the increasing popularity of synephrine HCL, there are still some debates over its over all effects and it being used as an alternative to ephedrine, a substance made illegal by many countries due to the side effects including heart disease.
