Betaine was named this due to the source it was discovered in, Beta vulgaris or sugar beets, is an organic compound that is deemed related to trimethylaminoethanol, or choline. To diversify it from other betaines, trimethylglycine is often called glycine betaine as well. Humans generally ingest betaine through their diet, because it is high in content in wheat, whole wheat, shellfish, sugar beets and spinach. It can also be formed in the human body out of choline. As a potential methyl donor, trimethylglycine, or TMG for short, is in the same provider group with Vitamin B12, the folic acid, choline and S-adenosyl methionine, or SAMe. TMG also plays a vital function in the production of carnitine, furthermore it works in protecting kidneys and the liver.

ChitosanAnyone who wants quick fat loss that too in a natural way must have heard of Chitosan. A simple fat inhibitor, Chitosan has made it possible for all those people, who enjoy a good fatty meal once in a while, to stay fit and in perfect shape. Chitosan has garnered raving reviews owing to its miraculous ability to inhibit fat in a safe manner. It is derived from a polysaccharide Chitin that is found in exoskeletons of crustaceans like shrimp, crabs, etc. While we lack adequate studies to determine how exactly chitosan works, it is believed that chitosan has the ability to soak up about six to ten times its weight in fat and oils being a special kind of fiber. It binds with fat molecules converting them into a form that cannot be absorbed and metabolized by the body so as to expel them through the stool. -There is just one Problem, just like the popular prescription drug Alli, it can only absorb a few grams of fat at most, so don't start emptying the cookie jar.

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 Picolinate is a nutritional supplement that treats and helps prevent chromium deficiencies and has shown a reduction in carbohydrate cravings making it another weight loss product as well.

Inositol , a type of sugar that differs from glucose in chemical structure. Inositol helps prevent the accumulation of fat in the liver and aids in the detoxification of metabolic wastes.

L-Carnitine - Carnitine is a quat, quaternary ammonium cation, which is derived through biosynthesis of amino acids lysine and methionine. During the breakdown of stored fat in the lipids for purposes of generating additional metabolic energy, carnitine is needed to transport the fatty acids from the intracellular fluid to the mitochondria. The biologically active form of this stereoisomer is named l-carnitine. It is believed that l-carnitine has strong antioxidant effects and that it can strengthen the bone mass during the aging process. It is furthermore believed that l-carnitine promotes the glucose uptake and that it improves the male fertility in clinical trials. Concentrations of carnitine are found in highest levels in red meat and dairy products, but also in some seeds and pulses, as well as cereals and some fruits.

Methionine is an a-amino acid classified in the non polar group of amino acids. All amino acids have a basic structure in which there is a central carbon atom, attached with the amine, carboxyl, and functional groups as side chains and also a hydrogen atom. Only the functional group varies in different amino acids and the properties, and thus the importance of the amino acids varies according to the functional groups. Methionine has a non polar thioether group as its functional group. Most of the advantages of methionine are based on the fact that the body can convert it into very useful substances. On its own, it is a potent antioxidant and helps in the breakdown of fat. When converted to creatine monohydrate, it helps muscle building.
