The science has proven that elevated cortisol levels cause stress on your adrenal system causing fatigue, rapid weight gain, stress and exhaustion. This is why The Guerrilla Chemist formulated his newest, highly potent product, Cortibloc™.<\/p>\r\n
How Does It Work?<\/strong> Training hard is a key component in building a dense muscular physique but when the body encounters stress or does not get adequate rest the central nervous system (CNS) becomes fatigued.<\/p>\r\n Over time your body will respond to stress and lack of rest by creating fat deposits in response to your hormones being under stress.<\/p>\r\n Cortibloc™ not only helps keep your cortisol levels down but it also helps burn unwanted fat and boosts your metabolism to new levels. Take on your stress with Cortibloc™ available now from Chemix!<\/p>\r\n Key Ingredient<\/strong> The main ingredient in CortiBloc™ is emodin, an anthraquinone compound isolated mainly from the root and rhizome of polygonum cuspitatum, which acts as an 11βhydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1(11β-HSD1) inhibitor. This enzyme, located in your liver and fat cells is responsible for the conversion of cortisone(the inactive glucocorticoid) into cortisol(the active form).<\/p>\r\n Glucocorticoids like cortisol can have deleterious effects on your body if levels get too high. Research has shown that elevated levels of glucocorticoids like cortisol can inhibit glucose uptake in skeletal muscle and can lead to fat gain, obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, dyslipidemia and type-2 diabetes. Cortisol, which is produced in your adrenal glands in response to stress is good in small quantities and at the right time. However, long term elevated levels can have serious health implications, as mentioned earlier. Emodin can stop elevated cortisol levels right at the source. Emodin is a selective inhibitor of 11β-HSD1 only, not 11β-HSD2 which is found in your kidneys. Inhibiting this enzyme can cause major health effects such as sodium\/potassium absorption\/elimination, buildup of excess mineralocorticoids, interfere with aldosterone and affect kidney function.<\/p>\r\n Emodin inhibits 11β-HSD1 by blocking the enzyme site from sending a hydride from NADP to cortisone to produce cortisol. Studies show emodin inhibits the enzyme by up to 46% in adipose tissue(fat cells) which means your body is producing almost half of the cortisol it normally would. This can lead to fat loss, reduction in stress, decreased insulin resistance and increased insulin sensitivity. Emodin also reduced fasting blood glucose levels by 77% after taken orally for 7 days, as well as overall plasma insulin levels by 66% relative to the control. In another study, emodin was shown to reduce appetite and bodyweight in mice(13.9% reduction in bodyweight).<\/p>\r\n As you can see, emodin is a very powerful ingredient for inhibiting cortisol and insulin-induced weight gain. Unfortunately, the oral bioavailability is very low. In order to fix this issue, we added a large dose of piperine, commonly known as black pepper extract. In a study combining emodin with piperine showed a marked increase in bioavailability via inhibiting glucuronidation. This is the process where a glucose molecule is attached to emodin to make it more water soluble and easy to expel from the body. By stopping this process, the piperine allows emodin to maximally be absorbed and inhibit the formation of cortisol and help you meet and exceed your weight loss goals. This product can be taken by both men and women and works especially well for high-intensity athletes and fitness competitors.<\/p>\r\n Direction<\/strong> <\/p>\r\n The science has proven that elevated cortisol levels cause stress on your adrenal system causing fatigue, rapid weight gain, stress and exhaustion.

Whether it\u2019s for the gym, work, gaming, or staying up, ENERGY combines 8 ingredients in efficacious and synergistic doses to make sure you are mentally firing on all cylinders. Each ingredient was chosen for a very specific purpose and dose to ensure that you get the maximum effect every time.<\/p> Phenylethylamine, or more commonly known as PEA, is the chemical backbone structure for many natural and prescription central nervous stimulants. PEA is found naturally in a variety of botanicals including Leguminosae and even chocolate. Your body even synthesizes it via bacteria from the amino L-phenylalanine. PEA falls under the category of trace amines can help your body release dopamine and serotonin, 2 neurotransmitters responsible for \u201cfeeling good\u201d and \u201cpleasure\u201d by binding to the Trace amine associated receptor(TAAR). It is here where it can inhibit the reuptake of dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine. PEA is missing the alpha carbon that would 1)protect it from the enzyme that breaks it down Mono Amine oxidase, and 2)would make it the chemical structure of amphetamine. Many pharmaceuticals were modeled after PEA that aid in ADHD, depression and much more. PEA as a supplement hits you hard and hits you quickly. That\u2019s why I front loaded ENERGY with 500mg of it for that initial euphoric and stimulant rush.<\/p> Catuabua Bark Extract(std to 30% polyphenols): Catuaba (Trichilium catigua) has been used in traditional Brazilian medicine for its antidepressant and memory-stimulant properties(as well as libido). Catuaba Bark works mostly on modulating dopamine, which users report improved mood, enhanced cognition and focus, as expected. Remember, dopamine is released and reuptake is blocked in medications for ADHD, so this makes sense. According to the research, Catuaba not only boosts dopamine release and inhibits its transport\/reuptake, it also increases sensitivity of your D1 dopamine receptor. It\u2019s also been shown to increase acetylcholine via acting as a mild acetylcholinesterase(enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine) inhibitor. Some research even suggests that it can increase the release and inhibit the reuptake of serotonin, as well. However, its mostly dopaminergic which is why it\u2019s in this formula. It also has neuroprotective properties against oxidative stress. This compound is a superstar ingredient that not only will give you plenty of energy and dopamine, but focus, as well.<\/p> This formula contains a blend of caffeine anhydrous and citrate. Caffeine, a trimethylxanthine, in general is an adenosine antagonist meaning it blocks the sleepiness action of adenosine. This is what causes the alert feeling you get from caffeine. Caffeine citrate(approximately 51% caffeine) seems to hit more quickly vs its\u2019 anhydrous counterpart, a very noticeable effect, however it has a much longer half-life compared to anhydrous. I am a big fan of the different time-releases of caffeine so it all doesn\u2019t hit you at once. I purposely made the Nootropic caffeine-free so that one can add his\/her own custom amount of caffeine. ENERGY has a total of 267mg of caffeine from the 2 sources, not to overwhelm the other stimulants inside this incredible formula.<\/p> Hordenine is often mislabeled as a stimulant based off its structure, but it\u2019s actually a mono amine oxidase-B inhibitor. Commonly known as N,N-tyramine, one could see how it can be confused with a PEA derivative. However, as we spoke earlier about monoamine oxidase being the enzyme that breaks down PEA and monoamines like dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine, it is important to include such a compounds in order to increase the duration and effect of these stimulants. Specifically, monoamine oxidase-B is responsible for prolonging dopamine, one of the monoamines that PEA and Catuabua Bark releases and blocks the reuptake of. Hordenine at this high of a dose (150mg) is able to extend the active life of PEA and Catuabua\u2019s dopamine release. Most companies use hordenine completely incorrectly or at too low a dose to be effective. Not me.<\/p> One of the strongest PEA derivatives that is legally able to be used in supplements, N,N-dimethylphenylethylamine citrate has the PEA backbone but with one crucial difference: it contains gemini methyl groups in the Nitrogen atom of the amine group. This allows it to last longer in the body by sterically hindering the metabolism from monoamine oxidase. The other great thing about having 2 methyl groups attached to the amine is that it makes the compound much more lipophilic, meaning it can cross the blood-brain barrier much more easily vs PEA. This means that more of the compound will actually get to where it needs to be in order to release dopamine and give you a rush of energy. This will have a similar effect as PEA, but should last longer and hit slightly harder!<\/p> A newer stimulant to hit the market that is based off the ever popular synephrine stimulant, N-isopropylnorsynephrine has an isopropyl group attached to the Nitrogen amine in order to make its effects last even longer. Synephrine is already a powerful stimulant, but like we spoke about earlier it can be quickly metabolized by our monoamine oxidase enzymes. Luckily, an isopropyl group is larger and more bulky compared to just 2 methyl groups, so only a very small amount Is needed to supply you with HOURS of energy! Synephrine also has the PEA background, and is very similar to tyramine, with only an hydroxyl group at the beta position. This allows for more tightly binding to your beta-2 adreno agonist receptors, the ones that BURN FAT. N-isopropylnorsynephrine also contains this hydroxyl group and has been shown to burn fat and stimulate your Beta-2 adreno receptors to the legal limit.<\/p> Source: Cova, I., Leta, V., Mariani, C. et al.

Here is a complete breakdown for this extremely powerful formula:<\/p> Chemix GDA is a premium, multi-faceted glucose disposal agent product designed to help increase carbohydrate assimilation and metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and maintain healthy blood glucose levels. GDA allows your body to utilize the hormone insulin more efficiently, which can lead to gains in lean mass via increased glucose and amino acid uptake into your cells!<\/p> Whether you\u2019re trying to gain 10lbs of muscle or lose 10lbs of fat, one key hormone can make or break your success: insulin. Insulin is a protein made up of 110 amino acids, and is secreted from the beta cells in the pancreas upon the intake of carbohydrates. Being a storage hormone, many consider insulin a double-edged sword. Insulin is the most anabolic hormone in the body as it\u2019s responsible for the uptake of glucose and amino acids to form glycogen and skeletal muscle tissue. Bodybuilders have put on slabs of lean muscle tissue by manipulating insulin, and it\u2019s speculated to be the reason why bodybuilders can compete heavier than ever before. But insulin also has a dark side- it can cause to the body to store large amounts of body fat, as well.<\/p> Macronutrients are of the utmost importance when it comes to building muscle and burning fat, however if your body isn\u2019t utilizing them properly and efficiently you will fail at both. Inefficient nutrient partitioning normally results from the body not using insulin effectively. Here are some of the actions for which insulin is responsible:<\/p> The following is a mini crash course in how insulin works in the body:<\/p> All dietary carbohydrates are broken down into the monomer glucose in the small intestine, which then is absorbed into the bloodstream. Once in the blood, glucose signals the pancreas to secrete insulin. Insulin will then bind to the insulin receptor (IR), where it triggers a series of reactions that ultimately leads to uptake of glucose and amino acids into the cell, glycogen synthesis, increased muscle protein synthesis, and glucose disposal (glycolysis), usually through the insulin receptor substrate\/phosphoinositide 3-kinase (IRS\/PI3K) pathway. GLUT4, a transporter needed to allow glucose to enter the cell, is translocated to the cell membrane via activation of the IR, and IRS pathway. Different pathways lead to different actions elicited by insulin, and herein lies how one can maximize the use of endogenous insulin to increase lean body mass or lose body fat.<\/p> Bitter Melon Extract(standardized to 10% bitters): Known as \"vegetable insulin,\u201d bitter melon is used to treat diabetes in many parts of the world, and in some places it\u2019s the only form of treatment. Bitter melon contains a variety of hypoglycemic herbs such as triterpenes, anthroquinones, and glucosinolates. The 3 most profound ones are charantin, polypeptide-p, and vicine. Studies have shown extracts from bitter melon to stimulate insulin release, increase skeletal muscle glucose uptake and utilization, suppress gluconeogenic enzymes, and preserve and regenerate beta cells(the cells that release insulin in the pancreas). There is even research on these compounds activating AMPK and PPARx, both of which help regulate energy expenditure in the body.<\/p> Banaba leaf Extract(standardized to 25% tannins): Lagerstromemin speciosa, commonly known as banaba leaf, contains many compounds that can naturally help with blood sugar control. Most people assume it\u2019s the work of corsolic acid, for which most banaba supplements are standardized. However, it\u2019s actually the gallotannins that are responsible the most for insulin mimetic function. Specifically, Penta- O-galloyl-glucopyranose(PGG) was determined to have the strongest effect of the group. PGG was shown to significantly increase glucose transport into cells, both in vitro and in vivo. It also was shown to have an anti-adipogenic(inhibit fat cell production) effect, which many other glucose disposal agents do not possess(remember, insulin is adipogenic). Lagerstromemin was also identified to activate the insulin receptor(IR), one mechanism for lowering blood glucose. One of the other major mechanisms of action for banaba leaf is increasing expression and activation of GLUT-4, the transporter protein that allows glucose to be absorbed into cells. Interestingly, removing tannins from banaba extract eliminated all glucose transport activity(GLUT4), which also suggests that the tannins, not corsolic acid is responsible for the anti-diabetic effects. Another study showed that Lagerstromemin was about 54% as strong as insulin for glucose transport activity, which is pretty remarkable.<\/p> Alpha Lipoic Acid(yielding 150mg of R-ALA): Alpha Lipoic acid is a mitochondrial fatty acid with really interesting properties. It's been extensively studied for a multitude of benefits, but perhaps the most applicable are its use as an anti-oxidant and a tool to manage blood glucose levels and increase insulin sensitivity. ALA has been shown to reduce general biomarkers for oxidation, inflammatory cytokines and lipid peroxidation(generation of free radicals that can damage your cells). In a meta-analysis, ALA was shown to have a remarkable effect on blood glucose levels. It can increase expression of GLUT-4, the transport protein than shuttles glucose into your cells. It can also decrease the activity of phosphotyrosine phosphatase 1B(PTP1B), a negative regulator insulin response, as well as potentiating the insulin receptor substrate-1. All of these mechanisms can result in more carbohydrates going into your muscles instead of being stored as fat. R-ALA is one of the most important ingredients in GDA and works synergistically with the other ingredients to reduce blood glucose levels and increase glucose uptake in muscle cells.<\/p> Gymnema Sylvestre Extract(standardized to 75% Gymnemic acids): Gymnema sylvestre(GS) is a natural antidiabetic herb that has been used to treat blood sugar ailments for centuries. GS contains triterpenoid saponins called gymnemic acids that stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreas, as well as increase glucose uptake in cells. GS extract has also been shown to lower LDL and vLDL(bad cholesterol), as well as increase HDL(good cholesterol). In addition, gymnema sylvestre extract has been shown to regenerate islet cells in your pancreas, which allows your body to regulate healthy insulin secretion and function.<\/p> Super Berberine(Berberine-Cyclodextrin complex): Berberine is one of the only supplements that has human data that shows efficacy on par with pharmaceuticals. Its main properties are activation of 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK), which leads to fatty acid oxidation, inhibition of cholesterol synthesis and lipogenesis, increases in muscle glucose uptake and insulin secretion(amongst other things). Focusing on muscle glucose uptake and insulin secretion, berberine was shown to be very effective as a glucose disposal agent in several studies. Berberine may increase glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and inhibit a-glucosidase activities, as well as promoting glucose uptake in cells. It works by increasing phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate- 1, and protein kinase B. Berberine also inhibits the enzyme PTP1B, an enzyme that down regulates the insulin pathway which can also lead to insulin resistance. The main problem with Berberine is it has terrible bioavailability. Super Berberine is Berberine encased in beta-cyclodextrin, which has been shown to increase solubility by over double of free berberine in a simulated gastric environment. Super Berberine also contains sodium caprate, a fatty acid that increases diffusion of berberine through the epithelial cells in the intestine.<\/p> Cinnulin PF: Cinnulin PF is a patented version of a 20:1 extract of Cinnamomum burmanni that contains high levels of water soluble double-linked procyanidin type-A polymers of flavonoids. Research shows that these polymers can increase autophosphorylation of the insulin receptor-\u00df, insulin receptor substrate-1, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, all of which activates the receptors and increases the ability for insulin to bind, as well as inhibits the enzyme phosphotyrosine phosphatase(PTP1B), which dephosphorylates(inactivates) the insulin receptor.<\/p> By potentiating the insulin receptor, your body can use less insulin to absorb the same amount of glucose, thus increasing your insulin sensitivity. The polymers in Cinnulin PF have also been shown to increase GLUT-4 expression, the transporter molecule that brings glucose into cells.<\/p> Chromium(III) polynicotinate: Although it has been known that chromium(III) (Cr) has positive effects on blood glucose control, the mechanism by which it does this has not been fully elucidated until recently. It was shown that insulin binds to the insulin receptor(IR) and then Cr binds in a second binding pocket, which increases IR activity anywhere from 3.5-8 fold, which has a downstream effect on multiple insulin-dependent pathways. Essentially, Chromium allows your body to use insulin more effectively due to it's two binding sites on the IR.

Here is a complete breakdown for this extremely powerful formula:<\/p> Chemix\u00ae GDA is a premium, multi-faceted glucose disposal agent product designed to help increase carbohydrate assimilation and metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and maintain healthy blood glucose levels. GDA allows your body to utilize the hormone insulin more efficiently, which can lead to gains in lean mass via increased glucose and amino acid uptake into your cells!<\/p> Whether you\u2019re trying to gain 10lbs of muscle or lose 10lbs of fat, one key hormone can make or break your success: insulin. Insulin is a protein made up of 110 amino acids, and is secreted from the beta cells in the pancreas upon the intake of carbohydrates. Being a storage hormone, many consider insulin a double-edged sword. Insulin is the most anabolic hormone in the body as it\u2019s responsible for the uptake of glucose and amino acids to from glycogen and skeletal muscle tissue. Bodybuilders have put on slabs of lean muscle tissue by manipulating insulin, and it\u2019s speculated to be the reason why bodybuilders can compete heavier than ever before. But insulin also has a dark side- it can cause to the body to store large amounts of body fat, as well.<\/p> Macronutrients are of the utmost importance when it comes to building muscle and burning fat, however if your body isn\u2019t utilizing them properly and efficiently you will fail at both. Inefficient nutrient partitioning normally results from the body not using insulin effectively. Here are some of the actions for which insulin is responsible: The following is a mini crash course in how insulin works in the body: All dietary carbohydrates are broken down into the monomer glucose in the small intestine, which then is absorbed into the bloodstream. Once in the blood, glucose signals the pancreas to secrete insulin. Insulin will then bind to the insulin receptor (IR), where it triggers a series of reactions that ultimately leads to uptake of glucose and amino acids into the cell, glycogen synthesis, increased muscle protein synthesis, and glucose disposal (glycolysis), usually through the insulin receptor substrate\/phosphoinositide 3-kinase (IRS\/PI3K) pathway.<\/p> GLUT4, a transporter needed to allow glucose to enter the cell, is translocated to the cell membrane via activation of the IR, and IRS pathway. Different pathways lead to different actions elicited by insulin, and herein lies how one can maximize the use of endogenous insulin to increase lean body mass or lose body fat.<\/p> Bitter Melon Extract(standardized to 10% bitters): Known as \"vegetable insulin,\u201d bitter melon is used to treat diabetes in many parts of the world, and in some places it\u2019s the only form of treatment. Bitter melon contains a variety of hypoglycemic herbs such as triterpenes, anthroquinones, and glucosinolates. The 3 most profound ones are charantin, polypeptide-p, and vicine. Studies have shown extracts from bitter melon to stimulate insulin release, increase skeletal muscle glucose uptake and utilization, suppress gluconeogenic enzymes, and preserve and regenerate beta cells(the cells that release insulin in the pancreas). There is even research on these compounds activating AMPK and PPARx, both of which help regulate energy expenditure in the body.<\/p> Banaba leaf Extract(standardized to 25% tannins): Lagerstromemin speciosa , commonly known as banaba leaf, contains many compounds that can naturally help with blood sugar control. Most people assume it\u2019s the work of corsolic acid, for which most banaba supps are standardized. However, it\u2019s actually the gallotannins that are responsible the most for insulin mimetic function. Specifically, Penta- O-galloyl-glucopyranose(PGG) was determined to have the strongest effect of the group. PGG was shown to significantly increase glucose transport into cells, both in vitro and in vivo. It also was shown to have an anti-adipogenic(inhibit fat cell production) effect, which many other glucose disposal agents do not possess(remember, insulin is adipogenic). Lagerstromemin was also identified to activate the insulin receptor(IR), one mechanism for lowering blood glucose. One of the other major mechanisms of action for banaba leaf is increasing expression and activation of GLUT-4, the transporter protein that allows glucose to be absorbed into cells. Interestingly, removing tannins from banaba extract eliminated all glucose transport activity(GLUT4), which also suggests that the tannins, not corsolic acid is responsible for the anti-diabetic effects. Another study showed that Lagerstromemin was about 54% as strong as insulin for glucose transport activity, which is pretty remarkable.<\/p> Alpha Lipoic Acid(yielding 150mg of R-ALA): Alpha Lipoic acid is a mitochondrial fatty acid with really interesting properties. It's been extensively studied for a multitude of benefits, but perhaps the most applicable are its use as an anti-oxidant and a tool to manage blood glucose levels and increase insulin sensitivity. ALA has been shown to reduce general biomarkers for oxidation, inflammatory cytosine and lipid peroxidation(generation of free radicals that can damage your cells). In a meta-analysis, ALA was shown to have a remarkable effect on blood glucose levels. It can increase expression of GLUT-4, the transport protein than shuttles glucose into your cells. It can also decrease the activity of phosphotyrosine phosphatase 1B(PTP1B), a negative regulator insulin response, as well as potentiating the insulin receptor substrate-1. All of these mechanisms can result in more carbohydrates going into your muscles instead of being stored as fat. R-ALA is one of the most important ingredients in GDA and works synergistically with the other ingredients to reduce blood glucose levels and increase glucose uptake in muscle cells.<\/p> Gymnema Sylvestre Extract(standardized to 75% Gymnemic acids): Gymnema sylvestre(GS) is a natural antidiabetic herb that has been used to treat blood sugar ailments for centuries. GS contains triterpenoid saponins called gymnemic acids that stimulate the release of insulin from the pancreas, as well as increase glucose uptake in cells. GS extract has also been shown to lower LDL and vLDL(bad cholesterol), as well as increase HDL(good cholesterol). In addition, gymnema sylvestre extract has been shown to regenerate islet cells in your pancreas, which allows your body to regulate healthy insulin secretion and function.<\/p> Super Berberine\u00ae(Berberine-Cyclodextrin complex): Berberine is one of the only supplements that has human data that shows efficacy on par with pharmaceuticals. It's main properties are activation of 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK), which leads to fatty acid oxidation, inhibition of cholesterol synthesis and lipogenesis, increases in muscle glucose uptake and insulin secretion(amongst other things). Focusing on muscle glucose uptake and insulin secretion, berberine was shown to very effective as a glucose disposal agent in several studies. Berberine may increase glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and inhibit a-glucosidase activities, as well as promoting glucose uptake in cells. It works by increasing phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate- 1, and protein kinase B. Berberine also inhibits the enzyme PTP1B, an enzyme that down regulates the insulin pathway which can also lead to insulin resistance. The main problem with Berberine is it has terrible bioavailability. Super Berberine is Berberine encased in beta-cyclodextrin, which has been shown to increase solubility by over double of free berberine in a simulated gastric environment. Super Berberine also contains sodium caprate, a fatty acid that increases diffusion of berberine through the epithelial cells in the intestine.<\/p> Cinnulin PF\u00ae: Cinnulin PF\u00ae is a patented version of a 20:1 extract of Cinnamomum burmanni that contains high levels of water soluble double-linked procyanidin type-A polymers of flavanoids. Research shows that these polymers can increase autophosphorlyation of the insulin receptor-\u00df, insulin receptor substrate-1, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, all of which activates the receptors and increases the ability for insulin to bind, as well as inhibits the enzyme phosphotyrosine phosphatase(PTP1B), which dephosphorlyates(inactivates) the insulin receptor.<\/p> By potentiating the insulin receptor, your body can use less insulin to absorb the same amount of glucose, thus increasing your insulin sensitivity. The polymers in Cinnulin PF\u00ae have also been shown to increase GLUT-4 expression, the transporter molecule that brings glucose into cells.<\/p> Chromium(III) polynicotinate: Although it has been known that chromium(III) (Cr) has positive effects on blood glucose control, the mechanism by which it does this has not been fully elucidated until recently. It was shown that insulin binds to the insulin receptor(IR) and then Cr binds in a second binding pocket, which increases IR activity anywhere from 3.5-8 fold, which has a downstream effect on multiple insulin-dependent pathways. Essentially, Chromium allows your body to use insulin more effectively due to its 2 binding sites on the IR. The polyniconinate chelate of Chromium has been found to be more bioavailable than other versions.<\/p> Chemix\u00ae GDA is a premium insulin memetic formula that combines 7 of the most well-studied and effective ingredients for maximizing the power of the anabolic hormone insulin!

To understand how many of these ingredients work, you need a little background information on monoamines neurotransmitters. Monoamines neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine contain 1 amine group(-NH 2 ), connected to an aromatic ring. All monoamines are derived from the amino acids phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan and are dubbed \u201cthe feel good neurotransmitters.\u201d The enzyme which breaks down all monoamines is known as monoamine oxidase (MAO). By inhibiting the enzyme MAO, these compounds and their effects can last longer in the body.<\/p> Serotonin is known as the \u201cfeel good\u201d neurotransmitter and has been directly shown to elevate mood, cognition, learning and memory. Regulating serotonin is the main action by which most anti-depressant medications work. Increasing levels of serotonin, as well as blocking the re- uptake(usage) of serotonin is the mechanism of action for most prescription serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SRi). The cool thing is that there are many natural botanical that work very similarly.<\/p> Dopamine is another important monoamine that is a major part of your body\u2019s reward- motivation system. It\u2019s known as the \u201cpleasure\/euphoric\u201d chemical, and many pharmaceuticals revolve around the release and reuptake of dopamine, specifically ADHD medications. These medications work via blocking dopamine transporters or inhibiting reuptake. The reason why people need ADHD meds is because they do not produce high amounts of dopamine. By constantly looking around for outside stimuli, this causes a dopamine \u201cfix\u201d and their bodies will produce more dopamine. If you already have enough dopamine, releasing more and blocking its transport will dramatically increase your concentration.<\/p> Nootropic was designed to modulate serotonin and dopamine in a safe way in order to produce laser-like focus and concentration, being in a great mood and increase long-term learning and memory. Nootropic also increases levels of acetylcholine, the excitatory neurotransmitter in your brain that tells you to wake up. Acetylcholine has also been shown to increase focus, learning and concentration.<\/p> Scelectium tortuosum AKA Kanna, is an herb that contains some very powerful nootropic and psychoactive alkaloids, including mesembrine. Kanna has been shown to interact with 77 different receptors in the body, but its main mechanism of action is acting as a natural serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SRi). Similarly to its pharmaceutical counterpart, elevating serotonin can cause mood enhancement and euphoria. Kanna is also a natural phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor (PDE4i), which is responsible for wakefulness and long-term memory. Lastly, Kanna acts as a releasing agent, meaning it causes the release of dopamine and serotonin, which further enhances its effects (Serotonin)<\/p> Catuaba has been used in traditional Brazilian medicine for its antidepressant and memory-stimulant properties(as well as libido). Catuaba works mostly on modulating dopamine, which users report improved mood, enhanced cognition and focus, as expected. Remember, dopamine is released and reuptake is blocked in medications for ADHD, so this makes sense. According to the research, Catuaba not only boosts dopamine release and inhibits its transport\/reuptake, it also increases sensitivity of your D1 dopamine receptor. It\u2019s also been shown to increase acetylcholine via acting as a mild acetylcholinesterase(enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine) inhibitor. Some research even suggests that it can increase the release and inhibit the reuptake of serotonin ,as well. However, its mostly dopaminergic. It also has neuroprotective properties against oxidative stress.<\/p> Ivy leaf extract has been used for centuries in eastern medicine as cough\/cold agent. However, more recently the saponins found in the plant have had significant medicinal uses. Specifically, hederagenin is one of the main saponins that has bioactivity. It acts as a triple monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOi). Meaning, it can extend the active life of 3 of the main monoamines we discussed: serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine. Taking ivy leaf extract may exhibit strong mood and cognitive enhancement, as well as slight euphoria. Ivy leaf has also been shown to be anti-neurogenerative.<\/p> Psoralea coryifolia contains certain bioactive compounds like psoralidin and \u0394 3 ,2-hydroxybakuchiol have been shown to possess serotonergic and dopaminergic activities, respectfully. This means that the seeds from this plant can act as a natural anti-depressant and mood enhancer, as well as increase focus and concentration.<\/p> Lions mane is another powerful nootropic that has shown to improve memory and cognition, increase NGF, which can cause nerve regeneration, as well as decreased levels of beta-amyloid plaque. Lions mane also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. One human study showed improved memory and scores on cognitive tests. Lions mane also contains erinacine, which can increase dopamine levels and possibly mood enhancement. There is also an immune system boosting effect from the beta d-glucans, which can also improve gut health. Over 80% of your body\u2019s serotonin is produced in the gut so it may help with serotonin release. This product contains 375mg of lions mane extract.<\/p> Cytidine 5;-diphosphocholine, CDP-choline or citicoline is essential to the biosynthesis of phospholipids, like phosphatidylcholine. Once ingested, CDP-choline can easily cross the blood-brain barrier with its phospholipid backbone, where it can increase plasma levels of acetylcholine, as well as dopamine and norepinephrine. CDP-choline has been shown to increase learning and performance, along with being extremely safe.<\/p> N,N-dimethylphenylethylamine citrate and Higenamine are derivatives of phenylethylamine (PEA). PEA, from a chemical structure standpoint, looks very similar to amphetamine. Because of this, these stimulants can elicit a dopamine release, that will further increase concentration when combined with some of the natural dopamine reuptake and monoamine inhibitors.<\/p> Huperzine A is a natural acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, meaning it prevents the breakdown of acetylcholine in the brain. It is by far the strongest acetylcholinesterase enzyme inhibitor on the market. There are even studies showing it can be neuroprotective against beta- amyloid pigmentation, a protein that has direct links to Alzheimers disease, as well as protection against hydrogen peroxide- induced damage. This works synergistically with CDP-Choline to increase levels of acetylcholine.<\/p> Chemix CEO The Guerrilla Chemist is back with his long awaited Nootropic Formulation that not only decreases mental fatigue but increases cognition to enhance productivity and provide focus at levels you have never seen before.<\/p> Redefine your focus with our brand new caffeine free nootropic blend helping you to harness the power of incredible ingredients like Lions Mane Extract, Huperzine A, Ivy Leaf Extract, Kanna, and more which deliver mental acuity beyond your wildest imagination.<\/p> Nootropic is an ultra-premium, all-natural combination of 11 powerful ingredients designed to dramatically increase focus, enhance mood, and your ability to get things done!

Quality sleep is one of the most important and essential actions your body needs to function properly. It is estimated that up to 33% of all adults do not get enough quality sleep. SLEEP is specifically designed to help fight off restlessness via different mechanisms of action, including inducing sleep and staying asleep.<\/p> GABAicalin\u2122 is a trademarked extract of Scutellaria baicalensis, standardized for 30% of the main active baicalin. Baicalin is a positive allosteric agonist for your GABAA receptors. GABA, your main inhibitory neurotransmitter, tells your brain it's time to get ready for sleep. Once baicalin binds to your GABAA receptor, it activates the receptor and elicits sedative, hypnotic, muscle relaxant, and anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) properties. This is the same mechanism and receptor that a class of sleep medications known as benzodiazepines interacts with. Baicalin has been shown to increase slow-wave sleep (deep sleep), as well as REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. REM sleep is extremely valuable to your body, as it releases growth hormone (GH) to help aid in recovery.<\/p> MagnaSleep\u2122 is an extremely potent form of magnolia bark extract (MBE), standardized for 90% of two powerful active phenolic compounds: magnolol and honokiol. These bioactives also act on your GABAA receptors to help reduce anxiety and prepare your body for sleep. MBE has been used for thousands of years in Chinese and Japanese traditional medicine to help promote sleep and reduce anxiety. Magnolol and Honokiol both have very high binding affinity to your GABAA receptors, specifically interacting with the benzodiazepine binding site. This binding potentiates the sleep-inducing effect of baicalin. Since magnolol and honokiol can quickly be metabolized via glucuronidation, a hefty 25mg dose of BioPerine\u00ae (black pepper extract) was added to inhibit this process.<\/p> Cussonia zimmermannii is an African herb that has been studied for bioactive constituents that modulate your GABA receptors to induce sleep. The rootbark extract of C. zimmermannii contains unique compounds known as polyacetylenes that have an extremely high affinity to GABAA receptors. These compounds have been shown to promote restful sleep, as well as staying asleep longer.<\/p> Hesperidin is one of the main bioactive compounds from citrus peel extract. It is a polyphenolic compound that has been shown to induce sleep but does not act on the GABA receptor or benzodiazepine binding site. Studies show hesperidin interacts with your extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1\/2 (ERK1\/2), located in the cortex and cerebellum. Hesperidin inhibits the activity of ERK1\/2, which may be linked to sedation. Studies show that hesperidin can induce sleepiness and enhance sleep and may potentiate other sleep-promoting compounds that activate your GABAA receptors.<\/p> Apigenin is a polyphenolic flavonoid that is one of the most abundant and well-studied. Apigenin's mechanism of action is not directly on the GABA-benzodiazepine receptor but does modulate its activity. Studies show it has a synergistic effect when combined with GABAA agonists like baicalin, magnolol, and honokiol. It has been shown to reduce locomotor activity, which prevents restlessness and may help induce sleep. One study showed subjects taking apigenin slept for longer durations versus the placebo. Apigenin is also subject to glucuronidation, so absorption is critical. With 25mg of BioPerine\u00ae added to prevent this metabolism, you can be sure that the large dose of apigenin will be absorbed and utilized.<\/p> I formulated SLEEP because I have had sleeping issues all of my adult life.

However, newer research shows that it seems to be more of a cumulative effect from influencing early regeneration and faster uptake of minerals in bone cells. The ketosteroids still play a major part in healing, but it’s more like the “entourage effect.” A 2010 study showed a week faster healing period vs the placebo. This was attributed to the faster stimulation of fibroblasts(synthesizes collagen), chondroblasts(helps grow collagen) and bone cells. One study showed that collagen synthesis increased by 86%! I truly believe this is an extremely undervalued ingredient when it comes to joint and collagen supplementation. We used a whopping 750mg per serving!<\/p>\r\n
Pamlmitoylethanolamide:<\/strong> <\/span>Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA, a mouthful) is your body’s main naturally produced anti-inflammatory agent. PEA is one of many fatty acids that have the enthanolamide functional group attached to it. Its origins go back to an obscure study in the 1940s showing that PEA derived from purified egg yolks exhibited anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties. In 1964, it was first isolated in mammalian tissues and has over 350 studies since. PEA binds to the nuclear receptor, where it then elicits a variety of biological activities including fighting inflammation and pain. PEA has been extensively studied, including a 1970 study showing similar pain relief and joint improvement to aspirin. As far as managing pain and inflammation, PEA seems to have multiple mechanisms of action. One such mechanism is the inhibition pro-inflammatory compounds like TNF-alpha and histamine, as well as reducing cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2), which is how most over-the-counter NSAIDs(ibuprofen) work. In 1993, the Nobel Prize was given out to Lvei-Montalcini, who worked for almost 40 years trying to explain how PEA and inflammation were connected, by showing its positive role on NGF(nerve growth factor) and how mast cells(immune cells) could be modulated by PEA. In 1990, it was shown that PEA’s mechanism could also be explained by its high affinity for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha(PPAR-a).
In 2017, a meta-analysis involving 10 studies and 786 participants showed that subjects given PEA had significantly reduced pain levels. Daily doses ranged from 300-1200mg, with an average of 600mg.<\/p>\r\n
Tamarind Seed Extract (10:1 Tamarindus indica):<\/strong> <\/span>Tamarind seed extract is a more recently studied compound for helping with joint pain, movement and overall antiarthritic properties. Originally thought to solely work based on its high antioxidant content, newer research has shown that tamarind seed extract can lower levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines like interleukin-1B(IL-1B), TNF-a, IL-6, and COX-2. After running an High performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) on the seed extract, the main components were found to be Threo-Isocitric acid, Galactosyl glycerol, Procyanidin B2, Areccatannin B1, Catechin, Rutin and Embelin. In a 2015 study, arthritic rats given tamarind seed extract showed significantly improvement. Appendage swelling was dramatically down(comparable to rats given ibuprofen). Not only that, but metalloproteinases(MMPs) which are responsible for degradation of cartilage activity was significantly lowered in arthritic rats receiving tamarind seed extract, similar to pre-arthritic state. Oxidative stress levels were significantly lowered, not to mention glutathione(GSH), the body’s main antioxidant levels decline during levels of high oxidative stress. Tamarind seed extract was able to reverse the decline of GSH by 91%! This wonder seed is exactly what you need for lowering inflammation by multiple pathways.
CurcuWIN (Curcuma longa L. 20%):<\/strong> <\/span>Curcumin is one of the main curcuminoids found in turmeric. There have been hundreds of studies on curcumin and its positive effects on inflammation and joint improvement, not to mention antioxidant properties, heart health and overall health. Curcumin interacts with multiple inflammation pathways, specifically negating the action of IkB Kinase and nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-kB). It has the ability to help with both acute and chronic inflammation, via constantly inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokines and downregulation of inflammatory enzymes like COX-2 and leukotrienes. It’s polyphenolic molecular shape allows it to be an excellent antioxidant and free radical scavenger. Curcumin has actually been shown to increase endogenous levels of antioxidants. Sounds amazing right? The downfall to curcumin and curcuminoids is their poor bioavailability. CurcuWIN solves this problem using a proprietary delivery system called UltraSOL, which has been shown to increase the bioavailability of curcumin by 46X! Essentially, UltraSOL converts oil-soluble compounds(like curcumin) into more water dispersible compounds by using a polymer known as N-vinylpyrrolidone(NVP). NVP helps encase and disperse the curcuminoids to help them be more hydrophilic(water soluble). This allows your body to utilize much more of the active curcuminoids.<\/p>\r\n
Curcucmin<\/strong>
AprèsFlex Boswellia serrata gum resin std. for 20% AKBA:<\/strong> <\/span>The gum resin from Boswellia serrata has been used for centuries because its rich in terpene and triterpenic acids, known as boswellic acids that have anti-inflammatory enzyme properties. The most potent of them being 11-keto--boswellic acid and 3-O-acetly-11-keto--boswellic acid(AKBA). This compound specifically has a very strong ability to inhibit the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase(5-LOX), which is very proinflammatory. 5-LOX generates leukotrienes which can promote free radical damage and the migration of these compounds to inflamed areas. Another key benefit for boswellic acids in general is that they do not disrupt the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans like hyaluronic acid, chondroitin, heparin, keratin, ect, which can help with wound repair. Most over-the-counter NSAIDs do disrupt this and can actually hurt you in the long run and impair damage control. AprèsFlex is standardized to 20% pure AKBA to get maximum results from the strongest component in the gum resin. Studies show that taking 1 serving of AprèsFlex begins to work in as little as 5 days! No more taking big chalky pills for 30days to help.<\/p>\r\n
UC-II Standardized Chicken Cartilage(Providing 10mg Total Cartilage, Including Undenatured Type II Collagen):<\/strong> <\/span>Undenatured type-II collagen or UC-II has been extensively studies in humans to show improvements in almost all metrics used in testing(pain, flareups, joint mobility, ect). The key term here is UNDENATURED. This means the protein of the collagen is exactly has it is inside the body and includes all the necessary components like proteoglycans, glucosamine hyaluronic acid, and chondroitin sulfate. These make up the very basics of cartiliage and synovial fluid- the viscous, non-Newtonian fluid between your joints to reduce friction. Many human studies have all come to the same conclusion: supplementing with UC-II can significantly lower levels of inflammatory cytokines that have been linked to severity and incidence of signs of arthritic tendencies. Specifically, UC-II has been shown to lower TNF-alpha, IL-1Beta, and IL-6, all of which are prone to causing inflammation. But, helping increase\/preserve synovial fluid, that is something that can help your joints fight discomfort and keep them lubricated for either lifting weight in the gym or doing cardiovascular exercise.
Tetrahydrocurcumin:<\/strong> <\/span>We have already spoken about curcumin and its many benefits, we all as pitfalls. One major pitfall we spoke about was oral bioavailability, which I rectified using an highly-bioavailable form known as CurcuWin. However, we have yet to speak about one of the main metabolites of curcumin known as tetrahydrocurucmin. The “tetrahydro” means that there is a reduction in 2 double bonds on the molecule where 4 hydrogens are added in place. This dramatically improves the oral bioavailability of curcumin, especially in the intestinal tract. But, that’s not all. Tetrahydrocurcumin has been shown to have much higher antioxidant properties. Studies have shown it can lower cell damage via lipid peroxidation(damage from free radicals\/ROS). Tetrahydrocurcumin can also help to lower blood sugar levels and LDL(good cholesterol). In fact, in 2015, a meta-analysis was published comparing curcumin to tetrahydrocurcumin that included over 50 studies, both in vitro and in vivo. But perhaps more importantly, has been shown to hit different molecular targets than regular curcumin, which may have added benefits of its own. For example, vasoprotection seems to be a property of tetrahydrocurcumin vs curcumin, which as you guessed may be linked to helping control blood pressure.<\/p>\r\n<\/p>\r\n
