Scientific Summary<br />
& CURRENT USE<br />
Caffeine is used as a dietary supplement<br />
ingredient in <strong>VLT</strong>. There are about 165 mg of<br />
caffeine per <strong>VLT</strong> dosage that provide energy and<br />
nutritional support. Excessive dosages of <strong>VLT</strong><br />
combined with caffeinated beverages or o<strong>the</strong>r<br />
sources of caffeine should be avoided. The <strong>VLT</strong><br />
formulation is designed to incorporate a balanced<br />
amount of caffeine and o<strong>the</strong>r nutrients to provide<br />
short and longer term sustained energy. Energetic<br />
effects may last 3-4 hours and complement <strong>the</strong><br />
longer term energy impacts of <strong>VLT</strong> nutrients.<br />
Preliminary studies have demonstrated that subjects<br />
can cycle up to 29% longer during high-intensity<br />
circuits after taking caffeine in <strong>VLT</strong>.<br />
Guarana Extract A source of xanthine<br />
alkaloids including caffeine, <strong>the</strong>obromine and<br />
<strong>the</strong>ophylline. Guarana contains polyphenols,<br />
and catechins and epicatechins (Green Tea type<br />
nutrients). It is used as a popular carbonated soft<br />
drink and as a dietary supplement ingredient. It<br />
is used in <strong>VLT</strong> to complement <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r nutritional<br />
ingredients with a balanced nutritional and flavor<br />
<strong>profile</strong>.<br />
Glycine acts to support <strong>the</strong> energy metabolism<br />
in <strong>the</strong> body. It inhibits and neutralizes free radicals<br />
that may form during extended exercise. It is key<br />
to <strong>the</strong> syn<strong>the</strong>sis of ATP, glucose and glycogen that<br />
provide energy to our bodies.<br />
Acetyl L-Carnitine is <strong>the</strong> acetylated form<br />
of L-carnitine. It increases ATP production on a<br />
cellular level in our mitochondria and plays a role<br />
in <strong>the</strong> body’s energy metabolism. It provides an<br />
impact to <strong>the</strong> cardiac and neuroprotective systems.<br />
Glucuronolactone is a precursor for<br />
Vitamin C syn<strong>the</strong>sis and both of <strong>the</strong>se substances<br />
have been demonstrated to play a role in structural<br />
and connective tissues in <strong>the</strong> body.<br />
B Vitamins & Vitamin C Each<br />
<strong>VLT</strong> dosage provides Niacin (B3 at 70% Daily<br />
Value), pyridoxine (B6 at 70% Daily Value) and<br />
cyanocobalamin (B12 at 23% Daily Value). Each are<br />
essential nutrients that have been associated with<br />
energy and wellness. Vitamin C at 40 mg or 67%<br />
DV per dosage is a recognized anti-oxidant and<br />
supports neutralization of free radicals. Vitamin C is<br />
recognized in supporting <strong>the</strong> structural elements of<br />
skin, tissues, and bone. Deficiency of Vitamin C has<br />
been identified as an element in scurvy (disease of<br />
<strong>the</strong> skin and mucous membranes). Each packet<br />
and dosage provides a rich source of B vitamins<br />
and Vitamin C.<br />
