Bioperine- Basically a pure and safe nutritional supplement of piperine, Bioperine can have several positive effects on our body. It contains about ninety five percent of piperine that is known to enhance the bioavailability of nutrients. As a result, bioperine intake helps in rapid absorption of nutrients from the gastrointestinal tract. Owing to its affinity for the fatty tissue, it even interacts with the lipid component of the intestinal cell membrane thereby allowing further nutrient permeability. It is quite popular due to its ability to enhance thermogenesis. This is how it works - the piperine present in bioperine stimulates the release of catecbolamines that trigger thermogenesis in the GI tract thus, making more energy available for digestion. It can be combined with other nutrients too to improve the health of human beings as well as animals.

Also known as ‘zhi shi’, green orange or bitter orange; it is a chief, active constituent found in the fruit belonging to the plant, Citrus aurantium. Synephrine is not only similar to ephedra in its chemical composition but also serves the same benefits as caffeine or ephedrine. However, it mildly stimulates the fat metabolism without causing any of the side effects associated with ephedra based products. The best advantage of using Synephrine is that it increases the metabolic rate without affecting the hemodynamics. Thus, it is comparatively much safer than ephedra. Since Synephrine promotes weight loss and supports thermogenesis, Synephrine supplements are an ideal solution for dieters and weight watchers. The total intake should be between 2 to 10 mg. per day.
