Abstract: A composition and method for promoting weight loss through the mutual and simultaneously to promotion lipolysis, the expenditure of energy stored in the body as fat, the inhibition of lipolysis as well as affording the body of an individual protection from reactive oxygen species resulting from the ?-oxidation of fats. The composition comprises at least a lipolytic substance, a thermogenic substance, a substance to inhibit the reformation of triglycerides in the bodily tissues of an individual and an antioxidant.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a sensory stimulating effect upon the opening of a vessel containing a nutritional or dietary supplement. The sensory stimulating effect occurs each time the vessel is opened and without shaking or disturbance of the vessel prior to said opening. At least some of the nutritional or dietary supplement is fine-milled to produce particles of an effective size and an effective weight to provide the desired effect upon opening the vessel.

Abstract: A nutritional composition and method is provided for enhancing cognition, providing nootropic effects to improve concentration in an individual by supporting the biological activity of the neurotransmitters comprising therapeutically effective amounts of Sulbutiamine or derivatives thereof, an effective amount of Huperzine-A or derivatives thereof and an effective amount of Tyrosine or derivatives thereof.

Abstract: A nutritional composition and method is provided for increasing blood flow to skeletal muscle in an individual by supporting the biological activity of nitric oxide comprising therapeutically effective amounts of L-arginine, Crataegus extract and Artichoke flavonoids.

Abstract: A nutritional composition and method is provided for promoting weight loss or weight maintenance in an individual by supporting and enhancing thermogenesis and lipid oxidation comprising therapeutically effective amounts of yohimbine or derivatives thereof, an effective amount of Evodia rutaecarpia extract and a source of an effective amount of L-carnitine or derivatives thereof.

Abstract: A method for promoting restful, quality sleep in an individual comprising the administration of a composition comprising Hops extract, Eclipta alba extract powder, and Nardostachys jatamansi extract.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus for achieving high work output per unit volume in micro-robotic actuators, and in particular TiNi actuators. Such actuators are attractive as a means of powering nano-robotic movement, and are being developed for manipulation of structures at near the molecular scale. In these very small devices (one micron scale), one means of delivery of energy is by electron beams. Movement of mechanical structures a few microns in extent has been demonstrated in a scanning electron microscope. Results of these and subsequent experiments will be described, with a description of potential structures for fabricating moving a microscopic x-y stage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for increasing the ?-oxidation of fatty acids while substantially simultaneously maintaining blood glucose concentration through the inhibition of carbohydrate absorption. Furthermore, the present invention additionally provides a composition for increasing the ?-oxidation of fatty acids while substantially simultaneously maintaining blood glucose concentration through the inhibition of carbohydrate absorption comprising an Extract of Green Coffee Bean, and an Extract of Salacia oblonga. The composition may further comprise diacylglycerol.

Abstract: A nutritional composition for improving blood cholesterol by jointly and simultaneously inhibiting cholesterol absorption, decreasing blood LDL levels, increasing blood HDL levels and interfering with HMG-CoA reductase synthesis or degradation in an individual comprising, therapeutically effective amounts of plant sterols or plant stanols or derivatives thereof, procyanidins, policosanol and niacin or derivatives of niacin is provided. Both a composition and a method are provided by the present disclosure.

Abstract: A dietary supplement comprising Creatinol O-Phosphate and Alpha Lipoic Acid, wherein the dietary supplement optionally comprises a timed-release or controlled-release delivery system. The timed-release or controlled-release delivery system may include one of quick release, slow release and controlled release delivery system. By way of oral administration, the present invention provides a method increasing lean muscle mass, increasing muscle strength and improving athletic performance.
