| 1. Olympian Labs Zinc Plus 30mg 100Caps | |
| ZINC PLUS Zinc is a trace mineral that is essential for our body. It is found in muscle, our bones, skin, liver, pancreas, and other organs. Next to iron, it is the most available trace mineral in the human body. Zinc helps to boost immunity, repair wounds, maintain fertility, synthesize protein, aid in cell reproduction, and preserve vision. More than 300 enzymes in the body need zinc in order to function properly. A deficiency of zinc may impair the body's immune function. There are many problems associated with zinc deficiency. Initially people have impaired protein synthesis and energy production, poor collagen formation, poor alcohol tolerance, loss of taste and smell, and many pregnancy related problems. Eventually, lack of zinc in your body can lead to reduced T-cell production that results in an increased number and frequency of infections. All of these problems are reversible . . . | |

| 2. Solaray's L-Arginine 500mg 100Caps | |
| Free Form L-Arginine by Solaray is an amino acid produced naturally by a microbiological fermentation process and is an essential component of protein found naturally in the human body. The amino acid arginine has several roles in the body, such as assisting in wound healing, helping remove excess ammonia from the body, stimulating immune function, and promoting secretion of several hormones including glucagon, insulin, and growth hormone. Arginine is also needed to increase protein synthesis, which can in turn increase cellular replication. Therefore, arginine may help people with inadequate numbers of certain cells. For example, some studies have found that men with low sperm counts experienced an increase in the number of sperm when supplemented with arginine. Arginine's effect on increasing protein synthesis improves wound healing. This effect has been shown in both animals and, at . . . | |

| 3. TwinLab's L-Carnitine Mega 500mg 60Caps | |
| L-Carnitine is primarily involved with transporting long-chain fatty acids from the cell cytosol into the mitochondria. Since long chain fatty acids are oxidized (burned) in the mitochondria, L- Carnitine facilitates production of energy from fat. Oxidation (combining with oxygen) of the BCAAs is facilitated by L- Carnitine, providing a link between protein catabolism and cellular energy. Skeletal muscle contains 90% of total body carnitine in humans. L-Carnitine's Function during Aerobic Exercise: — Helps Increase Fat Metabolism — Increases Endurance — Improves Definition — Increases Utilization of Fatty Acids as Energy — Decreases Lactate Build Up — May Help in the Reduction of Ketones in the Blood. (important for diabetics) The Inside Scoop: An increase in peak anaerobic power is attributed to carnitine supplementation. TwinLab Mega L-Carnitine . . . | |

| 6. Source Naturals Sodium Ascorbate Buffered C Crystals 16oz | |
| Sodium ascorbate is a natural and better form of c than ascorbic acid because it is non-acidic (ph neutral), making it gentler on the digestive system. It is also more easily absorbed and utilized than ascorbic acid, which requires certain minerals in order to function and may therefore deplete the body of these minerals. Vitamin C plays a vital role in the formation of collagen (a structural protein in connective tissue), amino acid metabolism and hormone synthesis, and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron. It is also a key factor in the body's natural defenses. Ingredients: Soduim Ascorbate 1136mg, Vitamin C 1000mg, Sodium 125mg. | |

| 8. Jarrow's L-Glutamine 750mg 120Caps | |
| 120 Capsules 750 mg each Pharmaceutical Grade Prod # 15012 Related books USAGE: Take 1 to 6 capsules per day between meals or after a workout, or as directed by yourqualified health consultant. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and is involved in many metabolic processes. Skeletal muscles are the primary sites of glutamine concentration. Glutamine protects muscle tissue and supports immune function during periods of immune and muscular stress. Glutamine supplementation supports protein synthesis as well as the rate of glycogen production (by serving as a carbon donor). Glutamine supports integrity of intestinal mucosal cells and nucleotide synthesis by lymphocytes. Keep out of reach of children.
