Green Tea

One unique aspect of green tea is its thermogenic effect. The interaction between catechins and caffeine, naturally present in green tea, stimulates the central nervous system and enhances thermogenesis—the process by which the body produces heat and accelerates energy expenditure.

This not only aids in fat oxidation but also prevents the accumulation of excess adipose tissue.

Green Coffee

Unlike regular coffee, where the roasting process diminishes chlorogenic acids, green coffee provides a concentrated source of these bioactive compounds.

Chlorogenic acids are potent antioxidants that exhibit a dual-action mechanism in promoting fat burning. Firstly, they inhibit glucose-6-phosphatase, an enzyme responsible for gluconeogenesis—the formation of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources, prompting the body to rely more on stored fat for energy.

The presence of chlorogenic acids in green coffee also contributes to blood pressure regulation by relaxing blood vessels. This vasodilatory effect enhances blood flow, ensuring efficient nutrient delivery and waste removal—critical aspects for sustained energy levels during physical activities.

L-Theanine

One of the standout features of L-Theanine is its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, influencing neurotransmitter levels. Once in the brain, L-Theanine stimulates the production of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter known for its calming effects.

This action counters the stimulating effects of caffeine, often found alongside L-Theanine in green tea, providing a balanced and sustained release of energy without the typical jitteriness associated with caffeine intake.

L-Carnitine

L-Carnitine, a naturally occurring compound synthesized from the amino acids lysine and methionine, plays a pivotal role in cellular energy metabolism.

The primary function of L-Carnitine is to facilitate the entry of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they undergo beta-oxidation, a process that results in the generation of energy.

Furthermore, L-Carnitine enhances the efficiency of fat utilization during exercise. By promoting the transport of fatty acids to the mitochondria, it ensures a more substantial reliance on fat as a fuel source, sparing glycogen and delaying the onset of fatigue.
