“Health Building Ingredients Backed By Medical Studies.”

Research indicates that most of the ingredients in A.C.T. have substantial medical studies from dozens of Universities from all over the world. Some are even from Harvard, Stanford and the Dr. Linus Pauling Institute (Nobel Laureate).

There are hundreds of pages on the Web that cover much information on these ingredients. To save you time, we provide a summary of the ingredients and shed light on their functions and benefits as there are described by mainstream research.

NOTE:No medical claims can be made that A.C.T. itself can diagnose cure, treat or prevent any disease. These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA . The following is for information and education purposes only and is not meant to give medical advice or to substitute the advice of a medical professional.

Amino Acids

L- Carnitine – Helps convert fatty acids into energy for muscular activities throughout the body. This amino acid is long recognized as crucial to heart health. Carnitine deficiencies are linked to high triglycerides and cholesterol, weakening of the heart muscle, overall weakness, chronic fatigue, muscle pain, confusion anemia, diabetes, and male infertility.

L- Arginine – One of most studied nutrients by medical science.

Precursor of Nitric Oxide , which importance was validated by the 1998 Nobel Price awarded to a group of doctors from Harvard University . This substance controls a limitless range of functions in the body. Each revelation adds to Nitric Oxide's already lengthy resume in controlling the circulation of the blood, restoring vascular function, arterial elasticity and regulating activities of the brain, lungs, liver, kidneys, stomach, gut, genitals and other organs.

Growth Hormone (HGH) precursor – This is one of the most important anti-aging hormones in our body. It is known to increase muscular metabolism, energy, health and repair. It helps in reducing body fat. Beneficial in energy production, immune function, sexual function, increases insulin sensitivity, improves metabolism and overall anti-aging functions.

Taurine – It's best known for empowering bile acids to clear cholesterol from the body and fight cellular troublemakers that can damage the heart. Taurine also produces a neurotransmitter responsible for brain energy, alertness, happy feeling , fighting depression and insomnia. It is also involved in releasing beneficial immune substances and improve fat metabolism.

Tyrosine – It is needed to make neurotransmitters like epinephrine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine, all of which work to regulate mood. Deficiencies in tyrosine, therefore, have been associated with depression. Tyrosine also aids in the function of organs in the body responsible for making and regulating hormones, including the adrenal, thryroid, and pituitary glands.

Vitamins

Vitamin C– Championed by Nobel laureate Linus Pauling, Ph.D., vitamin C is indeed a fascinating and important nutrient necessary for human life. Vitamin C is highly effective antioxidant and is also required for the productio of collagen. Vitamin C also plays an important role in the production of the neurotransmitter , norepinephrine, which is critical to brain function and known to affect mood.

B Vitamins - They are responsible for providing energy to the body during the conversion of glucose, from carbohydrates. They are also critically required for the metabolism of both fats and proteins, as well as the health and maintenance of the body's nervous system.

B3 – Required for the synthesis of sex hormones, as well as being vital to the nervous system. It also aids circulation, helps in reducing toxins and serum cholesterol. Because niacin dilates the blood vessels, many people taking this vitamin may feel heat sensation commonly occurring in the area of the face.

B6 - Required by many amino acids for their metabolism, also involved in the metabolism of fats and aids in the production of hydrochloric acid. This vitamin must be present for the production of both red blood cells, and also antibodies. It plays an important role in the body's immune system.

B12 - It is essential for the correct functioning of all cells, especially bone marrow and nervous tissue, it is also required for red blood cell formation. It is necessary for normal digestion, absorption of foods, fat metabolism and the conversion of proteins and carbohydrate into energy.

Herbs

Green Tea – Powerful antioxidant and immune system booster. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), an antioxidant found in green tea, is at least 100 more times more effective than vitamin C and 25 times more effective than vitamin E at protecting cells and DNA from free radical damage linked to many diseases. This antioxidant has twice the benefits of Resveratrol found in red wine. Green tea also boosts the immune system because of its high concentrations of polyphenols and flavenoids.

Panax Ginseng – Ginseng is a medicinal herb used primarily for increased stamina and for boosting the immune system . It is used to help relieve fatigue , declining capacity to work and concentration. It has also been considered very helpful as a supplement supporting anti- inflammation, anti- diabetes, and anti-depressant.

Guarana Seed – Guarana seed grows in the Amazons and contains Guaranine (methylxanthine - similar to caffeine) – Unlike caffeine is not water soluble and releases slowly over many hours to provide a prolonged feeling of energy and alertness.

Maca Root – It grows in the high mountains of Peru and is a natural hormonal balancer. Due to its high nutritional value, Maca is not only popular as a sexual libido enhancer and menopause symptoms savior, but also greatly affects energy, stamina, depression, memory, and more.
