| Agave Nectar Agave Nectar is an organic all natural sweetener. |
| Amino Acids Amino acids are generally regarded as essential for humans: tryptophan, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine. Two others, histidine and arginine are essential only in children. A good mnemonic device for remembering these is " Private Tim Hall " , abbreviated as: PVT TIM HALL:
Foodstuffs that lack essential amino acids are poor sources of protein equivalents, as the body tends to deaminate the amino acids obtained, converting proteins into fats and carbohydrates. Therefore, a balance of essential amino acids is necessary for a high degree of net protein utilization, which is the mass ratio of amino acids converted to proteins to amino acids supplied. |
| Antioxidants The following substances have shown positive antioxidant effects to the body: Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Selenium, & Bio-flavonoids.
A wide variety of antioxidants occur naturally in the body; many of these are enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase. Bilirubin, a breakdown product of blood, has been identified [1] as a possibly significant antioxidant. In addition, Omega 3 fatty acids prevent the formation of atherosclerosis when they are taken in conjunction with antioxidants. The antioxidants prevent the acids from being oxidized. |
| Ascorbic acid promotes healthy cell development, proper calcium absorption, normal tissue growth and repair such as healing of wounds and burns. It assists in the prevention of blood clotting and bruising, and strengthening the walls of the capillaries. |
| Astragalus Astragalus membranaceus, or huáng qí (literally " yellow leader " ; also called bei qí, literally " northern leader " ) is a tonic herb originally used in Chinese medicine. It is believed to be a galactagogue.
The natural gum tragacanth, which is used in pharmaceuticals and textiles, is obtained from Astragalus tragacanthus. It is claimed to help the immune system, and to increase the body's resistance to common viruses. |
| Avena Sativa A graduate school in California (the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality) has been studying the effects of avena sativa on sex drive for a couple of decades. Their research has led them to believe that avena sativa works by freeing up testosterone that gets stuck to various compounds in the body. As we age, the binding of testosterone to other molecules and nutrients gets worse. Bound testosterone is not as effective as free testosterone in heightening thoughts and pleasure associated with sex. An initial study with avena sativa (using 75 people) showed a significant increase in sex drive in men. The men in the study reported greater firmness of erections and more pleasure during the act of sex. In a prior pilot study many men reported more frequent orgasms. |
