CHAMP Pack F.A.Q.

Vitamin A

Class: Vitamin
What: Vitamin A, as a group, includes retinol, retinal, and retinoic acid. It contributes significantly to eye sight, gene transcription, and skin health.
How: Vitamin A propels the reformation of rhodopsin, and contributes to the ability to see at night. This makes sense, given that Vitamin A, converts to 11-cis-retinal, which is bound to a protein, opsin, in order to form rhodopsin (in rods), and iodopsin (cones). This allows color, and contrast to be present in our vision. In gene transcription vitamin A, as retinoic acid, is converted into retinol, which is taken up by a cell, oxidized into retinal (by relevant enzymes).

Calcium (as Calcium Carbonate)

Class: Mineral
What: Calcium is an important mineral, which is important for life.
How: 99% of calcium is stored in the bones and teeth, as it is responsible for their strength. The rest of the calcium in the body works in neurotransmitter release and muscle contraction, through the calcium channels at the neuron.

Iodine

Class: Vitamin
What: Iodine is an essential trace element. It is also the heaviest element commonly needed by living organisms, for metabolism.
How: Iodine is a constituent of the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). These are made from addition of products of amino acid tyrosine, and are stored prior to release in an iodine-containing protein called thyroglobin. T3, and T4 contain four and three atoms, respectively. The thryroid gland actively absorbs iodine from the blood in order to synthesize and release these hormones into the blood.

Magnesium

Class: Mineral
What: Magnesium is an essential mineral, and is the second most prevalent electrolyte in the human body.
How: Magnesium is primarily used as an electrolyte and mineral cofactor (helper) for enzymes. As an electrolyte facilitates maintenance of fluid balance, and as a cofactor, it has a purpose in over 300 enzyme systems. One of these crucial systems, in which magnesium has a role, is in the formation of ATP. Magnesium’s role in ATP, involves the activation of creatine kinase, as well as many of the enzymes involved in glycolysis (conversion of glucose into pyruvate). Simply put, magnesium contributes to energy, bone health, the immune system, and mental functioning (through magnesium ion channels at neuron sites). In fact, magnesium can actually help after neural injury and in learning, due to reducing the effects of excessive NDMA. Magnesium also has a role in sleep, due to sedative-like actions. Magnesium can also improve scores on assessments for depression and anxiety.

Chromium

Class: Mineral
What: Chromium is a mineral which has a role in improving insulin sensitivity.
How: Chromium mainly operates through a protein, chromomodulin, which increases the signaling of insulin receptors. Through this mechanism the insulin system is made to be more efficient. It is believed that this is even what has influence over an increase in nor-epinephrine due to consumption of chromium.

Molybdenum

Class: Mineral
What: Molybdenum is a trace mineral, which serves as a component of many enzymes.
How: Molybdenum is a component of xanthine oxidase (XO), xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH), sulfite oxidase (SOX) and aldehyde oxidase (AO), and is crucial to the breakdown of sulfure-containing amino acids, xanthines (such as caffeine), purines, and pyrimidines. This is necessary to many biological processes. Impaired SOX activity can cause neurological issues, due to a change in sulfate/sulfite effects in the body.

Potassium

Class: Mineral, and Electrolyte
What: Potassium is an essential mineral and electrolyte, and has many crucial roles in the body.
How: Potassium plays a significant role in electrolyte regulation, nerve function, muscle control, and blood pressure. One mode of action is through the regulation of water and mineral balance throughout the body. Another mode of action is through the potassium channels in many different cell types, which can control a wide variety of cell functions. Generally speaking, potassium channels set or reset the resting potential in many cells. In neurons (and other similar excitable cells), the delay in counterflow of potassium ions is what shapes the action potential (which is a short-lasting event where electrical membrane potential (where the voltage is differing between each side of the membrane) of a cell rapidly rises and falls, along a consistent curve or trajectory).

Chloride

Class: Vitamin
What: Chloride is an essential mineral , occurring in body fluids.
How: Chloride is the most commonly occurring negatively charged ion in the blood, where it represents 70% of the body’s total negatively charged ion status. In the body chloride functions as an electrolyte, combines with hydrogen in the stomach to make hydrochloric acid (HCl), absorption of other metallic minerals, and activation of an factor in order to make vitamin B12. As sodium and potassium, work in the nervous system, as does chloride. Here, chloride plays an important role, where it facilitates the transport of electrical impulses throughout the body.

Lecithin

Class: Vitamin
What: Lecithin is a generic term used to denote any group of yellow-brown fatty substance found in animal and plant tissue.
How: Lecithin contains phosphoric acid, choline, fatty acids, glycerol, glycolipids, triglycerides, and phospholipids. Due to containing phosphatidylcholine, letichin is a significant source of the essential nutrient known as choline. This will facilitate formation of acetylcholine, which is responsible for muscle contraction, concentration and attention. The choline, also has shown promise in benefiting acne, improving liver function, and in lowering cholesterol.

Choline Bitartrate

Class: Vitamin
What: Choline bitartrate helps with the production of acetylcholine.
How: Choline bitartrate is simply choline with a chemical salt, bitartate, attached. This facilates absorption. Choline bitartrate aids in the synthesis and storage of acetylcholine. With more acetylcholine available in the neurons, this means that the cholingeric system is better activated. This facilitates mental functioning through better concentration, learning abilities and improved memory.

Inositol

Class: Vitamin, Carbohydrate
What: Inositol is a carbohydrate , which is heavily involved in forming the structural basis for many secondary messengers in cells.
How: Inositol can be converted into myo-inositol, which has a pivitol role in the formation of the structural basis for many secondary messengers in our cells. In fact, these secondary messengers are involved in many processes, such as: insulin signal transduction, cytoskeleton assembly, nerve guidance, intracellular calcium, cell membrane potential maintenance, breakdown of fats, and gene expression.

Para-Aminobenzoic Acid

Class: Vitamin
What: Para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) is often used as a nutritional supplement in humans for the fatigue, irritability, depression, and many skin issues.
How: PABA acts as an essential nutrient for microorganisms and animals. PABA acts as intermediate in the synthesis of folic acid, and is commonly found in the following: brewer’s yeast, liver, wheat germ, whole grains, and eggs. It is also synthesized by the bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract.

Bromelain

Class: Vitamin
What: Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes found in pineapples, which digest protein, and are used to treat indigestion and inflammation.
How: Bromelain has been demonstrated to reduce muscle damage associated with exercise and preserve power output over time. Bromelain also reduces platelet aggregation, and the binding of them to the endothelium, by way of the enzymatic components, meaning a reduction of thrombus (blood clot) formation. Bromelain has been known to improve digestion and reduce inflammation through the enzymes present in bromelain. Bromelain may also burn fat.
