The ingredients in Stemulite Fitness formula help trigger the release of sleep hormones so that deeper REM sleep is achieved quicker and easier. Taking this supplement on a regular basis encourages deep sleep night after night so the mind and body can work cohesively together repairing itself. This naturally results in improvement of cellular repair so that tissues are repaired overnight and muscle growth takes place. This is imperative for athletes who consistently exercise at a high intensity; damage to muscles can be restored with a healthy level of sleep from taking stemulite.

Many athletes underestimate the importance of sleep, natural sleep is essential for healthy cell growth and recovery. Healthy REM sleep serves as a restorative process crucial for improving muscular strength and endurance, and without it or lack thereof an athlete will not improve. Sleep habits also keep the body’s metabolic engine pumping at an optimal level, making stress management a lot easier. Stemulite contain a high concentration of melatonin which helps restore the sleep cycle to a healthy level.

After extensive scientific research it is clear that the body does most of its repair during the night. Circadian rhythms regulate the metabolism of the higher organisms. During REM sleep, the body facilitates cellular repair and rebuilding of body tissue. When awake, the body operates its metabolism at a much higher rate than sleeping. The body’s heightened activity during the day leaves the body little energy for replenishing phyto-protein, nutritional and cellular repair. When the body is in REM sleep mode all of the body’s organs have a chance to recover and repair. The deeper you sleep the better your body does recovering. Which is why quality of sleep, is so important for us as athletes to function at our very best.

Key Benefits of Taking Stemulite Overnight for serious athletes:

• Reduces impact of oxidative stress
• Improves the cellular repair process
• Decreased perceived stress throughout the day
• Improve mood and increased energy levels
• Increase muscle size, strength and endurance
• Eliminate all dependency on sleep aids
• Expel toxins and detoxification for the body overnight
• Regulate emotions and mental health

Indium is considered the third heaviest molecular element known to be useful in nutrition. On the periodic table indium, element no. 49 is the 10th most scarce of all available elements. It connects the two largest groups of elements known to be beneficial to human nutrition giving its names at the true “Missing-Link” in anti-aging supplements. Most people have never even heard of Indium, it has been used in several different manufacturing processes, and its value as a nutritional supplement was virtually unknown five years ago.

There are few different forms of Indium. You can buy Indium by itself as indium sulfate; this type of indium has not been regulated by the FDA and is not approved. The indium used in Stemulite is called Indium In-111 Chloride solution and is FDA approved-Search Results: indium. Indium supplementation through Stemulite Fitness Formula is pharmaceutical grade Indium that is water soluble and has been used for over 40 years. FDA has determined that water-soluble Indium is totally safe even at 20,000 times the recommended dosage. There is approximately 5mg in Indium.

Here is what is written by Metabolic Research on their Stemulite website regarding the Indium in Stemulite:

“We use a pharmaceutical grade of indium which has been used by the medical professions for over 40 years in diagnostic radiology. It is of course FDA approved for this indication or it could not be use in literally millions of medical procedures around the world.

-Metabolic Research Inc.

What does Indium do?

Indium stimulates the hypothalamus pituitary adrenal (HPA). The hypothalamus is responsible for homeostasis, and controls the basic functions of the body such as breathing, food and water intake, body temperature, and stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract. The pituitary gland “master gland of the body,” controls growth hormone release (decreases with age), sexual glands and the function of your adrenal glands. The adrenal glands are responsible for producing hormones that regulate the effects of inflammations as well as mental alertness and fatigue. When the hypothalamus determines that a change is needed within the body, it signals the pituitary to release hormones. Every bit of information that is processed by the brain must pass through the hypothalamus, which then acts on the information and initiates the body’s response. Indium encourages (stimulates) the master gland in the body (pituitary gland) to excrete more hormonal stimulating secretions. These hormones boosts the supply of oxygen and glucose to the brain and muscles as well decrease the perception of pain and fatigue. Indium helps reduce the pain in muscles caused by lactic acid. The HPA is a very complex system, it contains thirty-one different hormones and the synchronization of these hormones from Indium produces feeling of well-being in most and even euphoria in others. These hormones control sleep, body temperature, metabolism, appetite, blood pressure, sex drive, as well as many other bodily functions. Indium also supports proper thyroid levels and more calories are burned and weight is normalized.

Indium Gives You More Endurance and Stamina

The Following is from the book by Dr. Robert Lyons called: Indium: The Missing Trace Mineral.

A study performed in Budapest, Hungary which should be published in a prominent peer review journal in the coming months, demonstrated that even 20 to 30 year olds can benefit from indium supplementation. The study was conducted using 15 male subjects who were all members of Hungary’s National Kung Fu Championship team.

NOTE: These results occurred in well-trained athletes. The same results should not be expected in all individuals.

Who is Indium for?

This supplement is without question for any serious athlete. Improved stamina and strength are the results noticed from an increase in muscle cell production that takes place over a short period of time. When an athlete is unable to recover from oxidative damage that takes place an injury can occur. By taking this supplement an athlete is ensuring that their muscle cells will adequately recover every day. Healthy and natural cellular repair after a workout is essentially the most important element for improvement. Taking indium will intensify every vitamin and mineral ingested and helps the body better absorb and use every nutrient. Therefore pre-workout and post-workout drinks are far better utilized by the body when taken with indium. The combination of Stemulite with creatine has provided many athletes with new gains never seen or thought possible without illegal substances.

Anyone who wants to feel younger and have more energy should take Indium. One main theory about aging is the relationship between decreasing hormonal levels with age in particular Human Growth Hormone and several gonadal hormones. Studies have shown that the increased levels of these hormones reverse many symptoms and conditions associated with aging. As we get older we produce less and less human growth hormone (HGH). The key ingredient in Stemulite Indium will help stimulate HGH and build lean muscle mass. Indium can still be used effectively for less active individuals, since it’s regarded by scientist as the true “Missing-link” in anti-aging supplements. The indium in Stemulite stimulates hormonal production at a youthful level this slows down the aging process and supplies the body with higher growth hormone levels. Another theory associated with aging is the fact that societies known for health and longevity have diets loaded with an abundance of trace minerals. Current research has shown that these minerals which are not common in a typical diet provide life-enhancing and life-promoting benefits. Research has shown that indium enhances the body’s assimilation and use of the minerals shown to have many life extension and health promotion benefits.

Other benefits of taking Indium include:

• Provides the immune system with greater immunity thus reduces the chances of getting sick.
• May assist the body in depression, anxiety and fears, unstable sugar levels, Parkinson’s disease, and bowel problems.
• Helps the body better absorb vital trace minerals (chromium, copper, manganese, selenium, zinc, calcium, magnesium, potassium)
• Increased Libido
• Enhanced Eyesight
• Better Memory

Special Instructions for Indium and or Stemulite

Indium is highly reactive with many different food compounds so it’s important to take Indium on empty stomach without food or beverage besides water. Indium is better utilized by the body and absorbed when taken on an empty stomach. An individual should wait about 20-30 minutes after supplementation in the morning before eating and wait an hour after eating at night before you take indium just before bed. Since indium is a supplement that is water soluble there is no added benefit to taking more than is recommended.

How it Works
Each cell in our body comes equipped with its own energy mini-engine. This engine is called mitochrondria and ALA is essential to mitochrondial function. Mitochondria are cellular organelles that act like tiny engines to convert unusable forms of energy (sugar, protein, fat, amino acids, etc) into a usable chemical form known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), so that vital cellular chemical reactions throughout the body can occur. They do this by oxidizing (burning) fuels, such as lipids from the diet, and transporting free electrons liberated from these oxidation reactions through a series of proteins called the “electron transport chain.” An electrical potential develops across the inner mitochondrial membrane as a result of this movement of electrons. ALA increases the influx of lactate or pyruvate into mitochondrial with corresponding increased O2-*. Energy liberated from these oxidation reactions is then used as the driving force for ATP synthesis. It is clear that factors and conditions that cause mitochondrial dysfunction could severely affect overall cellular metabolism and ultimately, our energy levels and survival.

Other Effects
There is tantalizing evidence that mitochondrial decay may be a primary factor in the aging process. As already noted, mitochondria are the chief source of endogenous oxidants, including hydrogen peroxide and the superoxide and hydroxyl radicals. This high flux of oxidants would not only be expected to damage the cell overall, but also certainly would damage the mitochondria in which the oxidants are produced. Despite an impressive array of antioxidant defenses, such as vitamin C, glutathione and vitamin E, the level of oxidative damage to mitochondria is enormous. Experiments have shown that oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA (the only organelle with its own DNA outside the nucleus) is 8 to 10-fold higher than the levels found in nuclear DNA and accumulates even higher levels of damage with age.

Chronic steroid use in exercise training and body building often leads to prediabetic conditions or prediabetes. One hallmark of the insulin-resistant state of prediabetes and overt type 2 diabetes is an impaired ability of insulin to activate glucose transport in skeletal muscle, due to defects in insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1)-dependent signaling. An emerging body of evidence indicates that one potential factor in the etiology of skeletal muscle insulin resistance is oxidative stress, an imbalance between the cellular exposure to an oxidant stress and the cellular antioxidant defenses. Therefore, anyone who has any kind of a chronic high glucose should daily take ALA. Exposure of skeletal muscle to an oxidant stress leads to a vicious cycle of impaired insulin signaling and subsequently to reduced glucose transport activity. Numerous studies have demonstrated that treatment of insulin-resistant animals and type 2 diabetic humans with antioxidants, including alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), are associated with improvements in skeletal muscle glucose transport activity and whole-body glucose tolerance.

Weight Reduction
Any overweight person who begins an exercise/ fitness program can reduce fat and improve fitness. Recent investigations have demonstrated that the combination of exercise training and antioxidant treatment using ALA in obesity-associated insulin resistance provides a unique interactive effect resulting in a greater improvement in insulin action on skeletal muscle glucose transport than either intervention individually. Moreover, this interactive effect of exercise training and ALA is due in part to improvements in IRS-1-dependent insulin signaling. These studies highlight the effectiveness of combining endurance exercise training and antioxidants in beneficially modulating the molecular defects in insulin action observed in insulin-resistant skeletal muscle. The insulin-like of effects of ALA provide body builders a powerful synergistic effect when used with creatine.

“R”-ALA is prescribed in Germany to treat diabetic and alcoholic neuropathies and alcoholic liver disease, thought to result in part from free-radical damage. As discussed above, there is also evidence that it can help decrease insulin resistance; it speeds the removal of glucose from the bloodstream by enhancing insulin function, and thus helps control blood sugar, underlying many cases of coronary heart disease and obesity.

Fitness /Training Applications
For Weight Lifting – Body Building – Elite Athletes – & Individuals who Workout regularly:

Powerful Antioxidant and mimics insulin
Enhances Glucose Utilization
Enhance Amino Acid Transport
Lowers Blood Sugar
Increases Creatine Uptake
ALA increases your muscles uptake of glycogen. This increases muscle cell volume and contributes to that full pumped feeling when you workout.

This is a very desirable effect as the increase in muscle glycogen also increases other important nutrient transport that contributes to cell volume and muscle growth.

ALA is not a thermogenic but it does appear to contribute to favorable body composition changes. This is believed to be due to a nutrient partitioning effect where nutrients are channeled more too lean tissue and away from fat tissue.

ALA will help enhance the efficiency of many different supplements and pharmaceuticals. It enhances the absorption of creatine into the muscle cell by providing a transport vehicle by its unique ability to mimic insulin.

ALA is also one of the most potent antioxidants available. And, when taken with other antioxidants it actually enhances their antioxidant abilities.

Acetyl (L-carnitine amino acid): 200 mg

——————————————————————————–

L-carnitine, an amino acid derivative, is found in nearly all cells of the body. L-carnitine transports long-chain fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membranes in the mitochondria, where they are processed by beta-oxidation to produce biological energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate or ATP. L-carnitine is one of the neurotransmitters that cross the blood-brain barrier and functions to support mental clarity and memory. L-carnitine is also known as levocarnitine and was formerly called vitamin BT. L-carnitine is a quaternary amine and belongs to the same chemical family as choline and is soluble in water.

L-carnitine occurs naturally in animal products. Generally, only very small amounts of it are found in plants, with few exceptions, such as avocado and some fermented soy products, e.g. tempeh. L-carnitine is a chiral molecule. Its stereoisomer D-carnitine does not have the biological activity of L-carnitine and may even antagonize L-carnitine in its biological roles.

L-carnitine is synthesized in the human body, chiefly in the liver and kidneys, from the essential amino acids L-lysine and L-methioine. Niacin, vitamins B6 and C, and iron are involved in its biosynthesis. L-carnitine is described as a conditionally essential nutrient. This refers to certain conditions where exogenous L-carnitine may be required, such as in long-term parenteral nutrition, that on valproic acid therapy and possibly for the elderly.

How it Works
There are at least two major functions of L-carnitine. All tissues except the brain use long-chain fatty acids for bioenergy production. In cardiac and skeletal muscle, a major contribution of bioenergy comes from the beta-oxidation of long-chain fatty acids. Long-chain fatty acids require L-carnitine to transport them across the inner membranes of the mitochondria, wherein their metabolism produces bioenergy. Following the delivery of long-chain fatty acids into other mitochondria, L-carnitine, either by itself or esterified to an acyl group, recrosses the mitochondrial membrane to allow for continual use in this shuttle process.

Another function of L-carnitine is to remove short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids from the mitochondria in order to maintain coenzyme A levels in these organelles. These fatty acids accumulate as a result of normal and abnormal metabolism. This mechanism prevents the build-up in the mitochondria of short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids that may interfere with the bioenergy-producing process vital to the normal function of the cell.

As mentioned above, L-carnitine is a neurotransmitter which crosses the blood brain barrier. Neurotransmitters are essential in mental processing, memory and concentration.

Synergistic Effects
Alpha lipoic acid and acetyl L-carnitine: could alpha lipoic acid and acetyl L-carnitine combine to form the Elixir of Life? When ALA is combined with L-carnitine the effect is powerfully synergistic. The initial excitement about ALC/alpha lipoic acid (ALA) supplementation began when a team of researchers in California fed elderly rats both nutrients for a period of seven weeks and then compared them with young rats. They were testing the theory that mitochondrial decline is caused by free radical damage. There was already evidence that supplementation with acetyl L-carnitine (ALC) could reverse the age-related decline in mitochondrial activity in rats, increase fatty acid oxidation and boost general metabolic activity. However the down side to this increased mitochondrial function was that more oxidative damage occurred, so the researchers decided to add the powerful mitochondrial antioxidant alpha lipoic acid (ALA) to the mix to see if they could get the best of both worlds: increased mitochondrial energy output, with reduced mitochondrial damage.

This two-pronged ‘punch’ to ageing cells seemed to work, with the two supplements together producing better results than either one alone. After a month on the supplements, elderly (24-month-old) and lethargic rats had more energy and did better on memory tests, while their mitochondria worked better. The decline in overall activity typical of aged rats was reversed to the level of young-to-middle-aged adult rats, aged 7-10 months. The researchers likened this result to a group of 80-year-old humans throwing away their walking sticks and starting to act 35 years younger!

Other Implications for Human Health
These studies on rats caused a huge stir within the scientific community. Here was evidence that some of the processes of ageing could be slowed or even reversed, and the implications for human health and performance were enormous. In the months that followed, a number of human studies were started, many of which are still under way.

However, the question of whether the benefits observed in rats might also apply to humans will not be easy to determine. For one thing, the ageing process in humans is much slower than in rats, so the seven-week supplementation period used in the rat studies would equate to around five years of supplementation in humans! Secondly, the amounts of acetyl L-carnitine (ALC)/alpha lipoic acid (ALA) used in the rat studies were very high – equivalent to 50g per day of acetyl L-carnitine (ALC) and 5g of alpha lipoic acid (ALA) for an 150 pound adult. That’s around 50 times more than is typically available in acetyl L-carnitine (ALC)/ALA supplements found on the shelves of most health food stores!

One of the earliest studies examining the effect of acetyl L-carnitine (ALC) and alpha lipoic acid (ALA) in humans was carried out at San Francisco State University in 2001. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study lasting 17 weeks, 18 healthy sedentary men aged 60-71 were randomized to one of two treatment régimes: a placebo tablet twice a day or 1,000mgs of acetyl L-carnitine (ALC) and 400mgs of alpha lipoic acid (ALA) in two divided doses. Both groups were then asked to perform a demanding sequence of exercises, after which blood was drawn and analyzed for signs of exercise-induced oxidative stress (a potentially damaging by-product of energy production). To measure oxidative stress, the study evaluated nine different biomarkers: ammonia, beta-carotene, glutamine, glutathione, malondialdehyde, total antioxidant status (TAS), vitamin C, vitamin E-alpha tocopherol, and vitamin E-gamma tocopherol. For eight of these nine biomarkers, a majority of subjects in the treatment group recorded values indicating that levels of oxidative stress had fallen. By contrast, no such benefits were reported in the placebo group.

Fitness/Training Applications
If an acetyl L-carnitine (ALC)/alpha lipoic acid (ALA) combination can reduce exercise-induced oxidative stress that would be good news for athletes, who are particularly vulnerable to such stress. However, because the small scale of this study made it difficult to reach statistically significant conclusions, the results were not submitted for scientific publication, which means they should be interpreted with caution.

Other human studies are also currently under way, but so far there are no published human studies available, although positive studies in animals continue to proliferate. Last year, for example, American researchers demonstrated that alpha lipoic acid (ALA) supplementation in older racehorses reduced the oxidative stress burden even under light training loads, while a number of other animal studies have shown that acetyl L-carnitine (ALC)/ALA supplementation reduces oxidative stress and improves mitochondrial function in a number of tissues, including brain, muscle and heart.

In one of these studies, researchers examined the effects of acetyl L-carnitine (ALC)/alpha lipoic acid (ALA) therapy on ageing and hearing in rats, and found that it reduced the normal age-associated deterioration in auditory sensitivity and improved inner ear function. They concluded that these improvements were related to the acetyl L-carnitine (ALC)/ALA combination’s ability to protect and repair age-induced mitochondrial DNA damage, thereby boosting mitochondrial function and improving energy turnover. However, while the initial evidence from animal studies looks extremely promising, the jury is still out as far as humans are concerned.

Beta Glucan: 50 mg

——————————————————————————–

B-Glucans (or beta-glucans) are both soluble and insoluble natural gum polysaccharides (sugars) occurring in mushrooms, barley, oats and to a lesser degree in rye and wheat. They are thought to have extensive use or potential in many medical and human nutritional applications. The sugars are branched from a protein backbone molecule which has myriad configurations. The beta glucan used in Stemulite is a 1, 3-1, 6-beta glucan derived from edible mushrooms.

Beta-glucans found in certain such as mushroom fungi are thought to have anticancer properties. In Japan, mushroom-derived extracts rich in beta-glucans have been used for over 20 years in intravenous forms and are approved for use as adjuncts to chemotherapy. There is a phase III trial in the U.S. using beta-glucans with other cancer drugs. No forms of beta-glucans have been approved by the FDA to treat cancer. Since beta-glucan activates complement in the immune system it can be used as a potent recruiter and mobilizer of stem cells from the bone marrow. These progenitor cells have the unique ability to differentiate into any cellular tissue in the body.

How it Works
The immune system responds to cell signals that identify “self” from “non-self” (a germ or virus is considered non-self) by the release of complement. The insoluble Beta-glucan has the unusual ability to enter the blood stream via the Peyer’s patches in the gut and activate the immune system’s complement component regardless of whether or not the body is invaded by germs or viruses. Complement is a protein that affects only non-self organisms. The white cells of the body are mobilized to attack infections and disease and are guided by antibodies released by B-cells. Obviously, daily use of foods or supplements containing beta-glucan can maintain a heightened immunity to all disease.

When beta-glucan activates the body’s complement system such as CR3 receptors on stem cells, they are up-regulated to bind with certain growth factors released by injured tissue. These factors act as powerful signals to recruit somnambulant progenitor stem cells in the body to mobilize and migrate to certain disease or injured tissues in order to repair (and in the case of stem cells) or replenish the injured or dysfunctional cell population. Once stem cells become resident of a tissue system (such as a muscle group) or organ they quickly multiply and replace old tissue with new juvenile cells which are able to mature in a matter of hours or days into the same tissue type that was earlier dysfunctional. If the genetic component of the tissue is normal, the new cells continue replicating indefinitely, completely and perminately eradicating the problem. In the case of fitness training, the stem cells are recruited in great numbers to mobilize in muscle systems replacing fat and adding brand new muscle.

Synergist Effects
Beta-glucan and lipoic acid both participate in the processes of cell growth and differentiation. The process then may become accelerated much in the same manner as steroids effecting muscle growth and inflammation. This has enormous implications in improvement in human health and fitness. A healthy and enhanced immune system provides the body with continual surveillance and immediate defense against disease.

Fitness/Sports Applications
The immune-stem-cell health potential in fitness and body building is enormous. Over 200,000 cases of tendons tears are treated by physicians annually in the United States. Millions of fitness buffs are constantly slowed or hindered by sprains and muscle pulls which interrupt the training regimes. Within professional sports, injured athletes can incur staggering financial loss. Stem cell recruitment and anti inflammatory action by a beta-glucan/lipoic acid/acetyl carnitine combination may be able to drastically reduce both the injuries and the recovery time of such injuries.

SerraPeptase (Serratiopeptidase): 50 mg

——————————————————————————–

SerraPeptase is a proteolytic (breaks down waste proteins) polypeptide enzyme isolated from the non-pathogenic bacteria Serratia species found in the digestive tract of the Japanese silkworm. The enzyme is used by the cocoon-forming silkworm butterflies mature to digest their cocoons. Serrapeptase has been used as a nutritional supplement in Europe and Asia for nearly three decades.

How it Works
SerraPeptase flushes off congregated waste protein and naturally eases minor pain and inflammation form overexertion or everyday activities by breaking down extraneous fibrin, mucus and other inflammatory compounds the congregate when the body’s natural repair function are working. It supports the body’s natural process for both drainage and repairs and therefore thought to be extremely helpful in supporting cardiovascular health.

Fitness/Training Applications
This product can be taken in the supplement as a preventative before an athletic event to allow the body to immediately begin repair from inflammation caused by extreme workouts or physical traumas. It enters inflamed areas that have been isolated from the body’s circulation, caused by sprain, swelling, or bruises allowing for recovery time to be greatly accelerated. Therefore it is very useful for athletes who incur any type of muscle damage.

Quercitin: 50 mg.

——————————————————————————–

Quercitin belongs to a group of polyphenolic substances known as flavonoids. Quercitin is a member of the class of flavonoids called flavones. It is widely distributed in the plant kingdom in rinds and barks. Especially rich sources of Quercitin include onions, red wine, green tea and St. John’s wort.

Quercitin is typically found in plants as glycone or carbohydrate conjugates. Quercitin itself is an aglycone or aglucon. That is, Quercitin does not possess a carbohydrate moiety in its structure. Quercitin glycone conjugates include rutin and thujin. Rutin is also known as quercetin-3-rutinoside. Onions contain conjugates of Quercitin and the carbohydrate isorhamnetin, including quercetin-3, 4’-di-O-beta glucoside, isorhamnetin-4′-0-beta-glucoside and quercetin-4′-0-beta-glucoside. Quercitin itself is practically insoluble in water. The Quercitin carbohydrate conjugates have much greater water solubility than Quercitin. Thus, daily Quercitin conjugation with other carbohydrates in the body may produce mild diuretic effects. This benefit is especially in women’s fitness as monthly menses usually produces a short period of fluid retention (plumping out) and a diuretic would help maintain body definition.

How it works
Quercitin has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, immunomodulatory, anticancer and gastroprotective activities. It appears also have anti-allergy activity and activity in preventing secondary complications of diabetes. Quercitin is an antioxidant and has been shown to inhibit lipid peroxidation. The putative anti-ulcer and gastroprotective effects of Quercitin may, in part, be accounted for by this activity. In vitro and animal studies have shown that Quercitin inhibits deregulation of inflammatory mast cells, basophiles and neutrophils. Thus, quercitin, a special bioflavonoid antioxidant shown to have an antihistamine effect in the body, makes it a natural putative for anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy and immunomodulating activities.

Fitness/Training Applications
Quercitin adds synergy to the anti inflammatory effects of ALA, SerraPeptase, and Beta glucan reducing recovery time after hard workout. This helps keep airways open and clear of excess mucus. As discussed above, Quercitin is prescribed in Europe as a mild diuretic, and when used in training should prevent fluid accumulation in other body tissues.

Melatonin: 2 mg.

——————————————————————————–

Melatonin is the principal hormone of the vertebrate pineal gland, and it is also produced by extra-pineal tissues in amphibians. It is found in plants as well, but at much lower concentrations than in animals. This hormone is involved in setting the timing (entrainment) of mammalian circadian rhythms, as well as regulating seasonal responses to changes in day length in seasonally breeding mammals—so called photoperiodic responses. Photoperiodic responses include changes in reproductive status, behavior and body weight. Seasonal effects on reproduction in humans are subtle, and the role of melatonin here, if any, is unclear. Recently, melatonin supplementation has become popular as an aid for sleep disorders among other things.

How it works
Melatonin is synthesized by the pineal gland in the midbrain. The essential amino acid L-tryptophan is a precursor in the synthesis of melatonin. In this synthesis, L-tryptophan first gets metabolized to 5-hydroxytryptophan from which 5-hydroxytryptamine, also known as serotonin, is made. 5-hydroxytryptamine is converted to melatonin in a two-step process, occurring mainly in the pineal gland.

Melatonin promotes rapid eye movement (REM) sleep and circadian rhythms that regulates the metabolism of all higher organisms. In man, the body shifts into a quiescent state during sleep which facilitates cellular repair and rebuilding of body tissues. When awake the body operates its metabolism at a much higher rate than when sleeping. Blood pressure, heart rate, breathing, and brain activity operate at a much higher rate requiring most of the available energy of the body. This heightened activity leaves little energy for replenishing vital protein, nutritional, cellular repair, and hormone stores for vitality, down regulation of localized inflammatory states, muscle growth and cellular repair which are necessarily carried out during sleep. This is why sleep is so vital to the maintenance of good health.

During sleep the liver, kidneys, and other organs typically detoxify the accumulation of ingested, internally manufactured, and inhaled toxins. As heart rate slows and blood pressure drops during sleep, the pressure differential in the extra-cellular spaces allow the cells to expel toxins from the cytoplasm into the interstitial spaces where the lymph and venous systems pick them up and carry them to liver, kidneys and gut for elimination. When one dreams in what is called REM sleep, the body is actually in a paralytic state, unable to move. A great deal of emotional adjustment and brain repair is carried out in REM sleep.

Fitness/Sports Applications
One of the most important aspects of proper performance (and one of the least practiced) is the concept of regular sleep patterns. Athletes are notorious for working their bodies extremely hard, and not getting the required sleep they need for proper performance. This is seen in a multitude of high school athletes who never make it through intercollegiate sports, and college athletes who do not continue after university sports. Dancers, and some professional athletes who have hectic travel schedules, who disregard the importance of sleep also limit their longevity in their sports. REM sleep,

Eggplant Extract: 10 mg

——————————————————————————–

Eggplant is a member of the Solanaceae family, which includes some of the most nutritious plants–potato, eggplant, tomato. It contains a powerful alkaloid which acts as an agonist on the acetylcholine (AChR) receptor which when activated is the most effective stem-cell and growth factor combination yet discovered.

How it Works
With the discovery of the adult stem cell found in the bone marrow of adults by Catherine Verfaillie at the University of Minnesota in 2002 it became obvious that stem cells carried an enormous potential to accelerate and enhance the building of new muscle and other tissues in the human body. John Cooke, et al., of Stanford University later identified a specific agonist and receptor for adult stem cells and demonstrated a mechanism of action for the de novo building of blood vessels in blood-starved limbs of animals. If followed that not only blood vessels but any tissue theoretically could be built or be remolded with adult stem cells.

Eggplant alkoloids binding the acetlycholine agonist receptor enhances cognitive functions, such as learning, memory, and retention through activation of brain nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). The most common nicotinic receptors found in the brain are the low affinity a 7-nAChR and the high affinity a 4b2-nAChR. a 7- and a 4b2- nAChR agonists possess cognitive-enhancing properties. Several large pharmaceutical companies are developing alpha 7 agonist binding agents. Target treatments include stem-cell activations and recruitment, Parkinson Disease, Schizophrenia and Alzheimer’s.

Fitness/Training Applications:
Two new types of stem cells have been found that can seek out injured muscle tissue and replace the damaged cells. Both types respond to the alkaloids found in eggplant extract. Researchers in Italy used stem cells from blood vessels to repair muscle in mice with muscular dystrophy. Canadian scientist found that stem cells from damaged muscle give rise to new muscle fibers. The studies reveal how different typed of stem cells repair injured muscle and point to common: Damaged tissue sends out molecular signals that attract new stem cells. The stem cells then multiply and form new muscle fibers, replacing and repairing injured tissue.

Until recently the signals that recruit stem cells to sites of injury have been unknown. Understanding these signals seems to be the key to finding new ways to replace damaged tissues by encouraging the growth of stem cells already in the body. Athletes should also be interest in these finding, which lend credence to the “no pain, no gain” approach to strength training and may lead to new strategies for bulking up. Researchers found that stem cells from normal tissue would not multiply in culture, but those isolated from injured muscle readily proliferated and gave rise to new muscle cells.

Mental acuity and sharpness are required in almost all sports. Stem cell recruitment combined with exogenous ingestion of natural alkaloids that bind and activate the alpha 7 AChR receptors in the brain and promote clarity and mental concentration.

Indium: 5 mg

——————————————————————————–

Indium is known as the missing trace mineral. It is the newly discovered supplement for vibrant health. Only rarely has product been discovered that has been found to have such profound benefits, and yet so little, known, and not at all publicized. This rare earth trace mineral was considered of little use to the body since it is inorganic and therefore unavailable in diet. However, new research has found that indium helps improve the absorption of essential trace elements – such as copper, manganese, and chromium, copper and zinc – in the body, thereby allowing them to perform their functions more efficiently. It has also been shown to have age-related benefits, including improving memory, increasing libido, and keeping weight stable and regulating blood sugar levels.

How it Works
Indium appears to work via the hypothalamus/pituitary/adrenal (HPA) feedback loop complex. The hypothalamus is the key to homeostasis and parasympathetic functions such as breathing, body temperature, food and water intake, and stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract. The pituitary controls growth hormone release, sexual glands and the function of the adrenal glands. The adrenal glands produce sterols such as adrenalin, epinephrine, and cortisol. These hormones down regulate the effects of inflammation as well as the perception of pain, fatigue, and mental alertness.

By balancing the feedback of the HPA complex one synchronizes the function and production of at least thirty-one hormones. This synchronization produces an almost universal feeling of euphoria and well-being in most users.

One of the theories regarding the ageing process is that it is precipitated by the decreased production of certain hormones as we get older. Indium appears to counteract this by balancing and synchronizing the HPA complex, the hypothalamus, pituitary and adrenal glands. These hormones control sleep, metabolism, body temperature, appetite, blood pressure, sex desire and many other body functions.

Indium stimulates hormonal production to youthful levels. It does this by stimulating the HPA master hormone producers – that in turn stimulate the production of over thirty hormones. These hormones then circulate throughout the body and help prevent and fight various aspects of the ageing process – for example, supplies of growth hormone are boosted, which controls metabolism and affects bone density.

Fitness/Training Applications
Immediate increased energy and strength is one of most reported effects of Indium by sports and fitness users. Most of the benefits of Indium occur within 5-10 days of supplementation!

Within one week the regular exerciser, who normally stop exercising due to muscular pain and fatigue should be able to increase their workout by 10% before reaching the pain threshold as indium helps reduce the painful buildup of lactic acid by removing it more quickly from the tissues.

In one very recent study with Indium conducted in Budapest, Hungary, 15 male members of the National Kung Fu Championship Team were measure for stamina. Each was administered one drop of liquid indium (ca. 5ml) sublingual for two months. At re-testing 13 of the 15 demonstrated significant increases over baseline.

Although anecdotal, a group of distance runners recently reported 30% increase in running distance for the same time in just two weeks. A group of weight lifters recently reported increasing their standardized bench press by 40% in 60 days using the same protocol.

Indium also has a beneficial effect on the thyroid gland. By potentiating this gland and supporting proper thyroid levels, more calories are burned and weight is normalized.

Mexican Yam Extract:

——————————————————————————–

The female version of Stemulite contains an extract of the Mexican Yam (Dioscoreaceae family) which contains alkaloids as well as diosgenin and other saponins that may mimic the effects of progesterone, DHEA, or other sex hormones. As a folk medicine, this herb has been traditionally used for centuries to reduce the symptoms of PMS and alleviate discomforts associated with menopause. It is often taken to relieve menstrual uterine cramps. When taken as a dietary supplement to exercise regimens, its estrogenic effect on mammary epithelium has been shown to reduce the effects of fibroglandular tissue loss in the breast while increasing the effect on the loss of adipose fat in the abdomen, hips and thighs.

What is Indium? I have read on the internet that it is not safe.

Indium is “generally regarded as safe” or (GRAS) as defined by the FDA dietary supplement guide and is taken by millions of people safely.

New research has found that indium helps improve the absorption of essential trace elements – such as copper, manganese, and chromium, copper and zinc – in the body, thereby allowing them to perform their functions more efficiently. It has also been shown to have age-related benefits, including improving memory, increasing libido, and keeping weight stable and regulating blood sugar levels.

The largest radiopharmaceutical manufacture in the world Mallinckrodt sells more indium for diagnostic x-ray imaging than we will ever hope to sell. Mallinckrodt is a global manufacturer of healthcare products. This indium is radiated and given to patients directly into the blood stream via, i.v. solution. Indium has had FDA APPROVAL for these procedures for almost 50 years without one reported death from use.

I am a diabetic, can I take Stemulite Fitnes Formula?

A recent study at the Linus Pauling Institute demonstrated that the main ingredient in Stemulite, alpha lipoic acid actually improves diabetes, blood pressure and reduces the buildup of atherosclerotic plaque in the arteries.

Can I take Stemulite if I have High Blood Pressure?

Is Stemulite FDA approved?

The supplement as a whole is not approved by the FDA. FDA regulates dietary supplements under a different set of regulations than those covering “conventional” foods and drug products (prescription and Over-the-Counter). Under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), the dietary supplement manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that a dietary supplement is safe before it is marketed. FDA is responsible for taking action against any unsafe dietary supplement product after it reaches the market. Generally, manufacturers do not need to register their products with FDA nor get FDA approval before producing or selling dietary supplements.* Manufacturers must make sure that product label information is truthful and not misleading.

What are Dr. Summers credentials?

He has founded and managed three public biomedical companies in the past. Dr. Summers has developed several pharmaceutical drugs, and many medical devices and nutraceutical products. He has performed cutting-edge research in the area of angiogenesis (the growth of new tissues) and formulated an acetylcholine receptor agonist compound that demonstrated re-growth of heart attack-damaged heart tissue (in pre-clinical FDA trials at Texas Heart Institute). He has also developed a new prostaglandin drug called Liprostin , which provides slow release of PGE-1 from liposomes (in final human FDA trials) which can potentially improve quality of life for the 10 to 12 million Americans who suffer from the painful and debilitating effects of peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD). Dr. Summers is also the inventor and designer (US Patent 7,074,812) of one of the best-selling non-steroidal nutraceutical product for bodybuilders today, Endothil-CR©, sold in all GNC stores and many other stores around the world.

What exactly does Stemulite do?

Second is the lipoic acid which goes directly to every cell in the body. It quickly enters the cell and goes to the mitochondria (which are hundreds of tiny sub-cells within each cell) and begins to supply greatly increased oxygen, nutrients to the cell nucleus for production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)…the absolute fuel of life. The net effect is abundant energy strength and stamina.

The rest is pretty much spelled out on the web page, i.e., acetyl L-carnitine is discrete little packages of amino acids that are doled out to the muscles for energy-on-demand. This energy is made available when required. The beta glucan stimulates the immune system to an enhanced immune surveillance, a sort of a Red Alert system against foreign invaders. Serra Peptase is a powerful enzyme that is now made by a common fungus and not the bacteria we talk about. (I’ll have to edit the web page later) but it makes the same enzyme as the bacteria. This natural enzyme basically cleans up the mess from hard exercise…metabolic waste such as lactic acid, aggregated fat or protein fragments, etc.

Finally, you have the stem cell recruiter from the eggplant. Eggplant contains a powerful stem cell agonist (promoter) that goes to the bone marrow and recruits literally millions of progenitor (baby) stem cells for mobilization in the workout zone. The brand new cells provide new populations of muscle that you cannot get by simply exercising.
