Betaine HCL, or betaine hydrochloride, is not an essential nutrient, but it helps in absorption of proteins, vitamin B12, iron and calcium and helps in the digestive tract with the protein and fat breaking up abilities. It is a supplemental source of hydrochloric acid, with a low pH level. Besides the obvious use against indigestion and heartburn, other uses have been proclaimed for betaine HCL, such as lowering the homocysteine level, helping with thyroid conditions and others. With progressing age, hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes may decrease, with a poor digestion as a result. With betaine HCL, when taken at the beginning of a meal, proper digestion can be accomplished. Betaine HCL is most commonly provided with the addition of pepsin, a digestive enzyme.

Biotin, also known as vitamin H, but is more commonly called Biotin. It is a vitamin which is B-complex in nature and is water soluble. Biotin helps in transferring carbon dioxide along with helping in various metabolic reactions. A steady blood sugar level can also be maintained by the help of biotin. Hair and nails are strengthened by the consumption of biotin. Therefore, a lot of hair and cosmetic products use biotin as one of its ingredients. The body’s daily requirement of vitamin B7 is produced by the intestinal bacteria. This therefore reduces the chances of vitamin B7 deficiency. There a large number of foods that contain biotin in large quantities. Swiss chard, tomatoes, liver,eggs, almonds, cumcuber, cauliflower, legume, soybeans, raspberries, carrots are some of those foods.

Choline Bitartrate , or choline for short, is an essential nutrient involved in many bodily actions such as the structure and function of cells and metabolic functions.

Chromium.

Coenzyme Q10- The vitamin-like Coenzyme Q10 or (CoQ10) is a fat soluble substance, found in all human cells. It acts as an antioxidant thus helping the body to get rid of free radicals and facilitating biochemical reactions that produce energy in the body cells. It is found mainly in the mitochondria where the cells make energy. Since mitochondria are found in abundance in the heart and liver cells, these cells naturally contain CoQ10 too. Needless to say, those who suffer from heart disease are the one who have relatively low CoQ10 too, as the heart cannot function to its full capacity if CoQ10 is not adequately present. CoQ10 deficiency may also give rise to periodontal disease though there isn’t enough evidence to prove so. However, it has been found that those suffering from this disease have relatively less CoQ10.

DL-Methionine , an essential amino acid that helps the body in the detoxification process. Deficiencies in DL-Methionine may also result in a destructive breakdown and metabolism of protein.

Inositol is a carbocyclic polyol found in fiber rich food items such as bran, wheat or legume. Even though it is a form of sugar, it works differently from glucose. With the help of several nutrients and vitamins like B6 and B12, inositol controls fat accumulation in the liver. It is also effective in the treatment of diabetes, low blood cholesterol levels and liver problems. This essential component helps in the formation of cell membrane that allows passage of molecules in and out of the cells. It also affects the signaling molecules of the body and is important for pleasure (serotonin) activity of the brain. Some of the good sources of inositol are kidney beans, cereals with bran content and fruits like oranges and cantaloupes.

L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring nutrient in the body that helps the body turn fats into energy. It is primarily produced in the liver and kidneys, and is stored in the muscles of the heart, brain, skeleton, and sperm. L-Carnitine is commonly used in supplements used by body builders. It helps increase and boosts the process of burning of fat in the body that gives energy, promotes a healthy cardiovascular system, proper circulation of blood and a healthy liver. It also helps suppress and reduce the appetite. It also helps those with chronic fatigue syndrome, increasing the focus, energy level, and reduces exhaustion.

Vitamin B12 is a water-souble member of the vitamin B complex. Requirements are in the microgram range, which is lower than the milligram range of the other B vitamins. Vitamin B12 is involved in the production of red blood cells and is usually known as the anti-anemia vitamin.
