Application: Cosmetics/Nutritional Supplement

Description: A compound synthesized by a class of integral membrane proteins known as hyaluronan synthases.

Solubility: Soluble in water, practically insoluble in acetone and ethanol

Benefit: Hyaluronic acid (HA) is well-known for the benefits of its skin care and anti-aging properties. This acid occurs naturally in humans and is found in younger skin. This acid is a component of the human body’s connective tissues. Our bodies gradually lose this acid as a result of exposure to UV sunlight and other pollutants, thus, it is often used to rejuvenuate the skin. Hyaluronic acid is also used in conjunction with Vitamin C because it helps the vitamin to penetrate easily in the body, thus improving skin conditions. HA may protect the joint tissue by increasing the thickness of the joint fluid and decreasing inflammation.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: A white crystalline powder.

Solubility: Soluble in water. Insoluble in absolute alcohol and Ether.

Benefit: Inositol is a direct precursor of phospholipids, which are a major component of cellular membranes. It helps to maintain proper electrical energy and nutrient transfer across the cell membrane. Inositol is also helpful in other areas as well, including the promotion of healthy hair, the prevention of eczema, and as an aid in the redistribution of body fat.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: The essential Branch Chain Amino Acids including L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine

Solubility: Soluble in water

Benefit: BCAA has positive effect on reducing fatigue, adjusting internal secretion, improving immunity and increasing life span.  BCAA supplement is necessary and important for bodybuilders to help in resisting sarcolysis, increasing muscle’s compression resistance, improving protein synthesis after exercise and have stronger muscles without any adverse effects.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: A essential amino acid that must be obtained through the dieting of adequate quantities to meet the body’s needs.

Solubility: Soluble in cold water

Benefit: benefits of L-IsoLeucine include the regulation of blood sugar levels in the body, and producing hemoglobin. This amino acid is responsible for muscle recovery after exercise, and is important in metabolism for producing energy.  IsoLeucine is probably best known for its use in increasing endurance and helping heal and repair muscle tissue.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: White to light yellow crystal powder, an essential amino acid

Solubility: Soluble in water

Benefit: Leucine plays a significant role in the maintenance and repair of muscles and in preventing the breakdown of muscle protein during exercise.  Leucine is the most significant of the amino acids, and the strongest. It increases the energy level of the body and keeps the mind clear during stress of athletic performance. Leucine also stores glycogen in the muscle tissue, which is the source of power needed to move the muscles.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: An essential amino acid that is necessary for smooth nervous system and cognitive function.

Solubility: Soluble in cold water

Benefit: Some of the benefits of L-Valine include improvement in insomnia and nervousness. It is also shown to improve disorders of the muscles, and is effective as an appetite suppressant. Valine is commonly used by bodybuilders, in conjunction with isoleucine and leucine to promote muscle growth. It also provides energy and helps to repair tissues that are damaged during physical activity.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: A synthetic isoflavone, which is used to maintain bone density and to prevent osteoporosis in postmenopausal women

Solubility: Insoluble in water and soluble in ethanol

Benefit: Ipriflavone slows down the work of the osteoclasts, which allows the osteoblasts (bone-building cells) to work more effectively. It is also able to stimulate the incorporation of calcium in bones and inhibit the breakdown of muscles. Some studies show that long term treatment with Ipriflavone and calcium can be effective in halting bone deterioration for postmenopausal women or those who have had ovaries removed. In addition, Ipriflavone can also help promote better bone density.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: A white and odorless crystal powder.

Solubility: Easily soluble in water, slightly soluble in alcohol and insoluble in Ether.

Benefit: An important source of energy for muscle tissue, the brain and central nervous system. L-Alanine strengthens the immune system by producing antibodies which helps in the metabolism of sugars and organic acids. L-Alanine can be used as an additive of salted foods, drinks containing alcohol, oil, yolk sauce, and improving the taste of food made with dregs of rice.

Application: Nutritional Supplement

Description: A white granular powder.

Solubility: Soluble in water.

Benefit: L-Arginine Alpha Keto Glutarate (AAKG) is an effective health care product for enhancing muscle stamina. It contains L-Arginine, which is important in protein synthesis, supporting a healthy immune function while playing a pivotal role in the urea cycle to rid excessive ammonia. The AKG is also another key player in amino acid metabolism. This form is typically used because it enhances the absorption of Arginine, and also gives the added benefit of indirectly providing Glutamine.

Application: Nutritional Supplement/ Bodybuilding

Description: A white crystalline powder.

Solubility: Soluble in water.

Benefit: Arginine Ethyl Ester DiHCL is a form of Arginine that is easily absorbed in the digestive tract and leaves a small trace amount of the ingested dose in the body. It may be considered as the most soluble, stable and effective form of Arginine supplements available on the market. It may be used in bodybuilding products for strength and energy.
