L-Theanine is a relaxing and nondietary amino acid found pretty much exclusively in teas from Camellia sinensis (alongside green tea catechins and caffeine) and is known to promote relaxation without sedation. It appears to be effective at this as well as reducing stress at standard dosages. L-theanine was discovered as a constituent of green tea in 1949 and was approved in Japan in 1964 for unlimited use in all foods, including chocolates, soft drinks, and herb teas, except infant foods. It also provides a unique umami (brothy or savory) taste and flavor to green tea infusion. L-theanine may help relieve stress by inducing a relaxing effect without drowsiness and may also possess immunologic attributes. Theanine may also have effects on the cardiovascular system and play a preventative role in cancer; however, limited clinical information is available to support these claims. L-Theanine and its positive effects on cognitive performance is one of its most important functions. Because of chemical structure of L-Theanine similar to glutamate it can act as a neurotransmitter related to memory. In a study made on rats, it was found out that L-Theanine modulated the serotonin and dopamine levels and increased learning skills with memory. In addition, it is stated that L-Theanine increases neuro - throphine mRNA level by activating its neuro - transmitter inhibiting system and supports the central nervous system that helps the development of brain functions. L-Theanine had a positive effect on memory and had positive effects on the treatment and prevention of Alzheimer. Theanine is an antagonist of the NMDA receptors (albeit with fairly weak efficacy) and can inhibit synaptic release of glutamate via blocking the transporter competitively. Theanine may also reduce glutamate levels, but this is also a fairly weak mechanism requiring a high concentration of theanine.

THIOCTIC ACID, also known as alpha-lipoic acid, is a vitamin-like antioxidant that acts as a free-radical scavenger. It exists in two enantiomeric forms, R and S, being the R isoform an essential cofactor of four mitochondrial enzyme complexes. THIOCTIC ACID is available as an over-the-counter nutritional supplement and has been used nutritionally and clinically since the 1950s for various diseases and conditions.

Fusidic acid is a anti-bacterial agent, initially isolated from Fusidium coccineum by Godtfredsen et al (Leo Pharma) in 1960. It is discussed that fusidic acid exerts its anti-microbial effect by inhibiting bacterial elongation factor G, thus suppressing the protein synthesis. Fusidic acid is widely used in Europe under the names Fucidin H(fusidic acid / hydrocortisone acetate), Fucidin (fusidic acid / sodium fusidate) and Fucicort (fusidic acid / betamethasone valerate) for the treatment of primary/secondary skin infections and inflammatory dermatoses.

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the major polyphenol from green tea, has the potential to impact a variety of human diseases. EGCG functions as a powerful antioxidant, preventing oxidative damage in healthy cells, but also as an antiangiogenic and antitumor agent and as a modulator of tumor cell response to chemotherapy. It was shown, that EGCG can inhibit 5-cytosine DNA methyltransferase (DNMT) activity and reactivate methylation-silenced genes in cancer cells and another of the probable mechanisms by EGCG exercise their anti-tumor property is through the suppression of the NFκB signaling pathway. EGCG has emerged as a potential neuroprotective agent for the treatment of neurological disorders associated with harmful effects of reactive oxygen species. The neuroprotective mechanism of action is probably based on several factors, including EGCG's modulation of several signal transduction pathways, its influence on the expression of genes regulating cell survival or programmed cell death, as well as its modulation of mitochondrial function. A phase II/III trial of oral Sunphenon epigallocatechin-3-gallate in patients with progressive multiple sclerosis has been completed. In addition, EGCG was in phase III clinical trials for the treatment of multiple system atrophy and for patients with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy ((DMD). DMD is the most frequent neuromuscular condition to occur in childhood and youth.

LAUROYL GLUTAMIC ACID is a small molecule organic gelator used to increase the solubility of poorly soluble compounds.
