Life Choice GABA 500 mg
GABA is found throughout the central nervous system (CNS), assuming an ever-enlarging role as a significant influence for pain, stress, anxiety, depression as well as stress-induced illness. Before January 1995, there were over 2000 documents and texts on GABA, describing how it affects anxiety/stress in the brain and CNS.
By examining a step-by-step process of what happens in the brain when feeling stress and anxiety, you can easily understand how GABA works and slows down messages. Panic, anxiety or stress-related messages begin to release numerous signals, and concurrently, a physiological response, known as the ‚Äúfight or flight syndrome‚ , begins to take place. This is commonly known as a ‚Äúpanic attack.‚
The unceasing alert signals from the limbic system eventually overwhelm the cortex (the decision making part of the brain), and the ability of the rest of the stress network to sustain itself becomes exhausted. The balance between the limbic system, and in fact, the rest of the brain to communicate in an orderly manner depends critically on inhibition. GABA inhibits the cells from firing, diminishing the anxiety-related messages from reaching the cortex.
GABA fills certain receptor sites in the brain and the body. This slows down and blocks the excitatory levels of the brain cells that are about to receive the anxiety-related, incoming message. When the message is received by the cortex, it does not overwhelm you with anxiety, panic or pain. You are able to maintain control and remain calm. But, if you are under prolonged stress or anxiety, your brain exhausts all the available GABA and other inhibitory neurotransmitters. This allows anxiety, fear, panic and pain to hit from every direction. Your ability to reason is diminished. In a full blown anxiety or panic attack physical symptoms include excessive sweating, trembling, muscle tension, weakness, loss of control, disorientation, difficulty in breathing, constant fear, headaches, diarrhea, depression and unsteady legs.
Research done at The Pain & Stress Therapy Centre in San Antonio Texas has shown pure GABA 750 mg can mimic the tranquillizing effects of Valium or Librium without the possibility of addiction or fear of being sedated. GABA fills the receptors in the brain and feeds the brain what should be there. Pure GABA dissolves in water; it is tasteless, odorless, and the calming results occur within 10 to 12 minutes.
Human behavior involves the functioning of the whole nervous system, and the nervous system needs amino acids. GABA, glutamine and glycine are vital for energy and the smooth running of the brain functions. B6 (pyridoxine) is GABA 's most important partner.
GABA helps reduce nervousness and promote relaxation; it also helps to reduce sweat rate and maintain body temperature in hot weather. Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Directions
For DILATE Powder: Mix 1 scoop of DILATE™ with 10-12 oz of cold water and consume 15-30 minutes before training. The dose may be increased up to a maximum of 2 scoops for maximum effect (mixed in 20-24 oz of water). For enhanced endurance, DILATE can also be taken during training or combined with your favourite intra-workout beverage. Read the entire label before use. DO NOT EXCEED 2 SCOOPS IN ANY 24-HOUR PERIOD.
DILATE INGREDIENT SCIENCE
HydroMax™ Glycerol Silicate: HydroMax is a proprietary blend of glycerol and silica allowing for a high amount of glycerol (65%) to be delivered as a free-flowing and soluble powder. This is about 10 times the concentration of glycerol available in standard glycerol monostearate (GMS). Glycerol can increase intracellular volume and lead to an incredible pump but also extends endurance by augmenting cellular hydration and promoting thermal regulation.
L-Citrulline: The 'pump' amino acid, L-Citrulline has been clinically researched to enhance nitric oxide levels better than arginine. Studies suggest that citrulline increases the rate of ATP synthesis during exercise and results in greater phosphocreatine recovery after exercise. Citrulline also reduces lactic acid and ammonia levels, which leads to better muscle performance and increased endurance
AgMASS® Agmatine Sulfate: Agmatine has become the wonder compound that’s a necessity in every athlete’s arsenal. Agmatine modulates NOS (nitric oxide synthase, specifically iNOS and nNOS), leading to incredible muscle pumps. It also promotes better workout recovery, a healthy hormone balance and supports a healthy stress response.
VASO-6: . This potent extract from green tea triggers vascular relaxation by elevating nitric oxide in skeletal muscle. VASO-6 was actually demonstrated to be 10x more effective than Arginine at a dosage 23x lower! This vasodilation and vasorelaxation, means you get an increase in blood flow, nutrient, and oxygen delivery to muscles to help them perform better and longer.
Citrus Bioflavonoids: Bioflavonoids like those found in Citrus sinensis (including hesperidin, quercetin, naringin, rutin) can increase the strength of the capillaries (blood vessels) and regulate their permeability. They are also essential to the proper absorption of Vitamin C (also found in DILATE) as well as improving the bioavailability of other notoriously difficult-to-absorb compounds like Amentoflavone.
Pomegranate Extract: Pomegranates are a great source of polyphenols like ellagic acid. Recent studies demonstrate that taking pomegranate extract prior to exercise can increase vasodilation, and blood flow, and delay fatigue. These effects are likely attributed to high polyphenol content, which has been shown to increase nitric oxide production and enhance exercise efficiency.
Vitamin C: Vitamin C acts as a potent radical-scavenging antioxidant, preventing nitrate tolerance. It also greatly enhances NOS activity, therefore increasing the rate of nitric oxide production. Not only does Vitamin C promote nitric oxide production, but it can also reverse nitric oxide tolerance – allowing you to feel the effects of DILATE at every workout, time and time again.

DIABLO SUPPLEMENT FACTS & DIRECTIONS
DIRECTIONS:
Take 1-2 servings daily, preferably on an empty stomach. On workout days, consume 30 minutes prior to exercise.
Ingredient Science
L-Carnitine: Responsible for the transport of fats into the cells to be used for energy in the body. By raising muscle carnitine levels, you support the fat burning process, and as the body becomes more efficient at processing fuel, it will increase energy levels. Elevating carnitine will also improve physical performance by burning more fat, sparing glycogen, clearing muscle lactate, and increasing anabolic hormone response.

Medicinal Ingredients
Each scoop (5 g) or 1 heaping tsp contains:
Micronized L-glutamine
5 g
Non-Medicinal IngredientsVegetarian capsule (carbohydrate gum [cellulose], purified water), rice powder, vegetable grade magnesium stearate (lubricant).
Suggested Use
L-glutamine is an amino acid that can be found throughout the body, primarily in the brain, gastrointestinal tract, muscles, and liver cells. During strenuous exercise, L-glutamine levels in the muscle and blood are greatly depleted. Supplementing with L-glutamine can help restore plasma L-glutamine levels depleted after periods of physical stress and can accelerate recovery time. Additional benefits include increased immunity and energy, as well as enhanced digestive and brain function. Micronization technology greatly minimizes the particle size, thus allowing your body to more easily break down and absorb the glutamine.
Advanced Info
Glutamine is a naturally occurring amino acid involved in a wide variety of metabolic processes, including the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids, and energy production. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in skeletal muscle and plasma and is known to be an important nutrient for cell proliferation, survival, and repair; defending the body against inflammation and infection; and helping the body recover from illness or stress. More glutamine is used during periods of prolonged or heavy exercise, trauma, inflammation, immune system dysfunction, and some illnesses. These states may result in a glutamine deficiency, leading to impaired immune response and increased risk of infection.While skeletal muscle is able to synthesize glutamine, many other cells and tissues that rely on glutamine to function properly are not. Immune cells and the kidney, liver, and gastrointestinal tract rely on glutamine from skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle consequently requires a constant supply of glutamine.Supplementation with glutamine helps ensure normal muscle function, aids recovery from physical trauma and illness, and naturally boosts the immune system, helping to protect against infection and disease. Glutamine supplementation is ideal for athletes who want to prevent problems associated with intensive training, and for anyone who would like to recover faster from over-training.
Recommended dose
Recommended adult dose: 1 scoop (5 g) or 1 heaping tsp daily or as directed by a health care practitioner. L-glutamine has no taste and mixes easily in water or your favourite beverage.
Cautions
Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are following a low protein diet, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep out of the reach of children.

TrueHope
Truehope - Freemino, ...
$76.00
Truehope - Freemino, Free-Form Amino Acids
Freeminos is a free-form amino acid supplement: meaning it can be used by the body right away, without having to be completely digested first. And since amino acid supplements require vitamins to work properly, they are included in this Truehope formulation.
This TrueHope formula contains more essential amino acids per serving than most brands - including 50% more BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids - leucine, isoleucine and valine), and nearly double the amount of glutamine and glutamic acid, which help with mental and physical stress. L-Theanine has also been added, to help promote relaxation.
Amino acids not only transport and store nutrients all over the body, they're also the fundamental elements which compose the hormones and neurotransmitters which govern our mental processes and moods. If our diet is deficient in bioavailable amino acids or we're undergoing too much physical activity or mental stress, our bodies have to break down its own tissues such as muscle mass to carry out those vital functions -- unless we take a supplement.
In this wonderful world of ours, everything is built block upon block, layer by layer, and our bodies are no different. Amino acids in their natural state form the basis for life. They are the metabolic building blocks of the body. Amino acids are the essential raw materials your body needs to produce cells, bones, hormones, hair, skin, and more.
Without a regular supply of high-quality bioavailable amino acids, the body must break down its tissues such as muscle to sustain vital functions. However, the tremendous job of the amino acid does not stop there. Amino acids are also crucial components of hormones and neurotransmitters needed for physical and mental health.
Truehope's AminoPower Advanced is an extremely bioavailable blend of seven vitamins and 23 amino acids including all the branched chain and essential amino acids. AminoPower Advanced is a free-form amino acid supplement which means it does not need to be digested before it can enter the body. Our ingredients - based on mother's breast milk - are easily absorbed and nourish the body quickly, making Truhope AminoPower Advanced one of the most bioavailable products of its kind.
Naming Note: A similar formula was previously marketed in Canada as Truehope Amino Power Plus. The name Amino Power Advanced is also used in the United States.

Advanced Info
Carnitine plays a key role in fat metabolism and energy production and concentrates in the body in skeletal muscle, and the heart, liver, and kidneys. Carnitine improves endurance and athletic performance and promotes healthy body composition by aiding the conversion of fat into energy. On a cellular level carnitine is critical for metabolic processes that produce energy, such as converting ketones and branched-chain amino acids into energy. Carnitine is also a potent antioxidant.The levels of carnitine and its derivatives in the body are critical for normal biological functioning. A deficiency of carnitine is associated with impaired growth and development in infants, neuromuscular disorders, muscle fatigue, and lethargy.Carnitine enhances cognition, lessens fatigue, and boosts physical and mental energy. By increasing oxygen consumption at the cellular level and decreasing lactic acid production, carnitine may improve athletic performance and muscle recovery.
Recommended use
L-carnitine is an amino acid found in high concentrations in heart and liver tissues where, inside the cells, it helps transform fats into energy.
Supplementation with L-carnitine may support appetite control, cardiovascular health, exercise performance and recovery.
Helps support muscle tissue repair in individuals involved in resistance training.
Recommended dose
Recommended adult dose: 2 capsules 2 times daily with meals or as directed by a health care practitioner.
