Shred Factor

For Beginners or to Assess Tolerance:

• 1 scoop taken in the morning or pre-exercise.

For Advanced Users:

• 1-2 scoops per day, taken together or in split doses.
• Do not consume less than 6 hours before bed to avoid restlessness.

Acetyl L-Carnitine HCl (ALCAR)

• An acetylated form of L-carnitine that crosses the blood–brain barrier and shuttles long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria for β-oxidation while also supporting acetylcholine metabolism.
• Supports fat utilization by facilitating mitochondrial transport of fatty acids during exercise and caloric deficit.
• Helps sustain training output by improving cellular energy metabolism.
• Cognitive support (attention/mental energy), particularly beneficial during calorie restriction and fasted training.
• May reduce perceived fatigue and improve recovery capacity in active populations.

Green Tea Extract (leaf)

• Decaffeinated catechin-rich extract, with EGCG as the leading bioactive compound that supports thermogenesis and fat oxidation. Contains >98% polyphenols and 50% EGCG.
• Supports increased 24-hour energy expenditure and fat oxidation.
• Helps reduce body fat when paired with diet and exercise (supported by meta-analytic research).
• Aids metabolic health through antioxidant signaling and AMPK/COMT-related pathways.
• Low-caffeine profile provides “clean” metabolic support.

Coleus forskohlii Extract (4:1)

• Source of forskolin, a direct adenylate cyclase activator that raises cAMP.
• Supports reductions in body fat and favorable body composition changes in certain human studies.
• May help maintain lean mass during weight loss phases.
• cAMP signaling complements thermogenic and lipolytic pathways.

InnoSlim® (Panax notoginseng + Astragalus membranaceus; ≥2.5% saponins)

• A patented blend of ginsenosides and astragalosides, studied for AMPK activation, GLUT4/GLUT1 expression, and healthy glucose/lipid handling.
• Supports AMPK-mediated improvements in glucose uptake and fatty acid oxidation (supported by preclinical and pilot data).
• Helps reduce post-prandial glucose/insulin excursions, aiding calorie control and metabolic efficiency.
• Complements weight-management programs by improving nutrient partitioning.

CaloriBurn GP® Grains of Paradise Extract (seed, std. ≥12.5% 6-paradol)

• Aframomum melegueta extract rich in pungent vanilloids (6-paradol/6-gingerol analogs) that may activate brown adipose tissue (BAT).
• Supports increases in energy expenditure and activation of thermogenic pathways (BAT).
• May reduce visceral fat in small human trials.
• Complements other thermogenic botanicals for “clean heat.”

GBBGO® (Gamma-Butyrobetaine HCl)

• Immediate precursor to L-carnitine in the endogenous γ-butyrobetaine dioxygenase pathway.
• Increases the pool/turnover of carnitine precursors to support fatty-acid transport capacity.
• Complements L-carnitine/ALCAR strategies for lipid oxidation.
• May aid performance and heat sensation through increased carnitine dynamics.

MitoBurn®

• MitoBurn is a natural dietary supplement designed to enhance mitochondrial function, promote fat burning, and support weight loss by utilizing fat cells for energy. Contains L-BAIBA, an amino acid metabolite believed to mimic the benefits of exercise, promoting fat oxidation.
• Enhances mitochondrial function to support fat burning.
• Increases fat oxidation, especially during weight management.
• Supports weight loss by utilizing fat cells as energy sources.

L-Tyrosine

• A non-essential amino acid and precursor to catecholamines like dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine.
• Supports mental performance under stress and fatigue.
• Enhances alertness and cognitive flexibility during calorie restriction or stimulant use.
• May improve endurance and resistance to cold stress.
• Supports thyroid hormone production under metabolic demand.

Caffeine Anhydrous

• Enhances thermogenesis, energy, and exercise output.
• Increases mental alertness and perceived energy.
• Promotes fat oxidation during aerobic activity.
• Supports mood and motivation via dopaminergic activity.

AstraGin®

• Dramatically increases absorption and bioavailability of nutrients such as peptides, amino acids, glucose, vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients, and various sports nutrition supplements.
• Supports gut health by fostering a favorable microbiome environment.
• Enhances and strengthens the immune system.
