What Is In It and How Does It Work?

Okay, we know that A.C.E is an all natural supplement and we have even been given a list of the ingredients but have you wondered- what are they and what do they do? I have! So, I have done the research. Here is what I have found:


Vitamin B6

According to what I have found vitamin B6 is responsible for the proper function of sixty enzymes within our body. I think its main function in this supplement is to help break down carbohydrates which provides the body with energy. It also contributes in manufacturing serotonin which aids in good cognitive function. It also helps support the immune system by helping in the production of hemoglobin. Another function that is aided by this vitamin is the production of estrogen and progesterone. Some studies have even found that it is beneficial for cardio vascular health.

Cocoa Powder

Our next ingredient is cocoa powder. Everybody wants a little chocolate right? Well little did we know that it could be so good for us! These nutrient chemicals in cocoa can lower the risk of depression, as well as suppress one's appetite and block the pathway that leads to food cravings. Additionally, phenylethylamine (PEA) improves mood, which in turn decreases food cravings. Fiber in cocoa is linked to decreased weight. Fiber helps block some fat absorption as well as a feeling of fullness. Various vitamins and minerals found in cocoa have been found to boost energy levels and aid in recovery from exercise. Besides these weight loss advantages, cocoa has also been said to relieve inflammation, influence mood, stabilize blood sugar levels, and aid with digestion.


Chromium

Chromium works with insulin to improve the transportation of glucose out of the blood and into the cell. This function improves health in many ways. Chromium can help to reduce the amount of sugar circulating in your blood, decreasing your risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome. It can help reduce the bodies insulin sensitivity, therefore reducing body fat and increasing lean body mass. It also helps lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and raise HDL (good) cholesterol. It can reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke and high blood pressure.

Spirulina

It seems that spirulina can be credited for the decrease in cravings and appetite that A.C.E provides. Spiruline is actually an algae that is said to be the most complete "super food" due to its wide variety of vitamins and nutrients. This ingredient is said to increase nutrients in your body which, in turn, decreases the cravings and hunger. It contains a high protein content which is good for building muscle. It has a high concentration of Omega 3 and GLA which helps regulate blood sugar and insulin levels helping to prevent binging. This super foods health benefits are so numerous that I would have to do a post on it alone to cover them all. The Health Guru does a pretty good job of covering them if you would like to see what else this little green algae does for you body!

Green Tea Extract

Green tea extract is said to instigate body heat which results in calorie burning. Among the many other benefits are neutralizing free radicals which protects the body from cancer, lowering LDL cholesterol, improving the immune system with its many antioxidants, aiding in skin rejuvenation which fights wrinkles, helping with inflammatory bowel issues, preventing liver disease, fighting against cold and flu and many other health-related problems.

Geranium Flower Extract

Geranium Flower Extract is a natural diuretic. From what I have found in my research, this is the main function of this ingredient in this supplement. Hence the need to drink plenty of water to replenish the body of fluids.

Caffeine

Caffeine is found in many herbs and plants. The caffeine in A.C.E. is classified as natural so it is safe to assume that it is derived from one of these herbs or plants. Caffeine is known to provide a burst of energy, increase metabolism, and improve mood, alertness and concentration.

I have said it before and will again, I love this product. I love the energy and the weight loss we are seeing. I have had so many positive comments from the people who have tried it and many are already seeing great success! I originally bought it because it was all natural. Learning the many other health benefits that it has is just a bonus!
