The FentraPhen Review

Chromium Picolinate is, besides chromium polynicotinate, a nutritional supplement designed to avoid or treat chromium deficiency. Insulin requires some modest levels of chromium in order to utilize glucose in healthy individuals. There is no record of chromium deficiency occurrences in regular population, only prolonged dieters in clinically observed and controlled obesity reduction treatments have registered any. Clinical trials have suggested that chromium picolinate may have antidepressant qualities, when applied to patients with atypical depression. Further observation signaled a reduction in carbohydrate cravings and seemed to regulate appetite. These results led to the incorporation of chromium picolinate into supplements for athletes who are working on body development and are looking to lose weight. It has been also observed that chromium picolinate is able to boost the blood levels of insulin for a limited time.

PEA (Phenylethylamine), which is also known as Beta-Phenylethylamine, is a supplement, which favors aggression and is supposed to raise mental alertness, focus, and ability to concentrate. It is believed to also promote energy. In clinical trials it has been observed that infusion of Beta-Phenylethylamine raises the extracellular dopamine count, furthermore inhibiting the dopamine transmitter DA neuron firings. An additional activity is seen through the Beta-Phenylethylamine modulation of noradrenergic transmissions. It is viewed as a stimulant, but the lack or disturbed amounts of PEA have been observed in people with attention deficit and the hyperactivity disorders, people suffering from depression, schizophrenia, migraine and phenylketonuria. The obvious antidepressant qualities are paired with the increased wakefulness, which may lead to difficulty falling asleep, but improve motivation when exercising or training.

Synephrine is an ingredient that is obtained mainly from the fruit of a small citrus tree, the Citrus aurantium, also known as bitter orange, zhi shi and sour orange. Synephrine is viewed as the safer version of ephedrine, whereby the properties include weight loss, increased fat burning, raised metabolism, as well as boosted energy levels. With such properties, this drug became instantly popular with the weight loss and control circles, but also with the body building community, and is now used in FentraPhen where fat burning and higher energy level properties are eagerly sought after. Initial research show stimulation of beta-3 receptors, whereby no increased heart rate or blood pressure was observed. It seems that synephrine induces lipolysis and stimulates similarly to caffeine. Some have also observed that synephrine suppresses appetite and increases the metabolic rate.

Vitamin B12- Also called Riboflavin, B2 is a water absorbed vitamin of which the body must replenish its supplies each day as it cannot be stored. It is necessary for the production of red blood cells and, like the other B vitamins, it works at supporting it supports energy production by helping in the metabolism of various foods.B2 is required for healthy skin as well as hair growth, the nails and has a role in regulating the activity of the thyroid gland. It is also necessary in order that the body can process amino acids found in proteins and fats and to activate vitamin B6 and folic acid.
