You may have heard of Alphamine or it may be a completely unknown ingredient to you. It is becoming an increasingly popular weight loss supplement within the sports nutrition industry today, so it is worth finding out what Alphamine is all about.

What Is Alphamine?

Alphamine is considered to be in the same category as thermogenic/fat burners. It is a new supplement that many people are trying out or using in order to try and lose weight via fat loss. The aim of a fat burner is to lose weight. However, not all fat burners will ensure that the weight you lose is just fat. Many fat burners on the market today will allow the consumer to lose weight via loss in fat, loss in muscle tissue, and a loss in water retention.

Alphamine Ingredients

What make alphamine so great is the ingredients it contains.

? Choline

Each serving contains Choline, which is a nutrient that is reduced within the body during exercise. The reduction of choline within the body, it leads to a further reduction of the neurotransmitter known as Acetylcholine, which helps with endurance levels. When you consume alphamine, you are consuming more choline, which allows for the spent levels within your body to be replaced which allows for greater focus, concentration and an increase in energy during a period of weight loss.

? Leuic Acid

Alphamine also contains another ingredient known as Leucic Acid. Leucic acid is what we get when the body metabolizes the amino acid leucine within the body or muscle tissue. This is an amino acid that aids in the stimulation of muscle protein synthesis within muscle tissue to allow for growth of cells.

? Caffeine

Another ingredient found in Alphamine is Caffeine. Caffeine is considered to be one of the top stimulants the body can absorb. Caffeine is found in many supplements and is seen as being easier to be absorbed within the body vs caffeine consumed from coffee and sugar soft drinks.

Enough caffeine being absorbed will lead to higher energy levels while also help with a minimal increase in metabolic activity within the body. It is important to note that taking too much caffeine can have side effects so make sure to stay under 1000mg a day. Take into account the amount of caffeine the supplements contain for safety precautions.

? Yohimbine

Alphamine also is high in the nutrient Yohimbine. Yohimbine is from tree bark and is excreted to be used in supplements to provide the body with a stimulus. However, Yohimbine has received reviews recently discrediting it as an unsafe supplement or herb according to the FDA and has been for many years now. If you wish to take Yohimbine, I recommend a dose that does not exceed 30mg a day to be safe. Yohimbine effects are also greatly increased on the body when it is consumed or taken with caffeine.

Take Home Message

If you plan on taking Alphamine, I recommend using the suggested serving size about 15-30 minutes before your first meal of the day or upon waking. Alphamine is best when taken on an empty stomach, although when taken on a stomach that contains food the effects will be identical.
