Drop Factor X® Thermogenic Fat Burning Powerhouse

Cocoa Seed Extract (Theobromine)

Theobromine is a naturally occurring alkaloid compound found in cocoa beans, chocolate, and other plant-based sources, such as tea leaves and the kola nut. It is structurally similar to caffeine and is classified as a xanthine alkaloid. Theobromine has several potential benefits, including:

• Mild Stimulant: Theobromine can act as a mild central nervous system stimulant, providing a gentle boost in energy, alertness, and focus. It is less potent than caffeine, which can be an advantage for people who are sensitive to caffeine's effects.
• Vasodilation: Theobromine can cause vasodilation or widening of the blood vessels, which may improve blood flow and circulation. This effect can contribute to reduced blood pressure and improved heart health, especially in individuals with hypertension.
• Diuretic Effects: Theobromine has diuretic properties, meaning that it can help promote the production of urine. This effect can be useful in managing fluid retention and maintaining a healthy balance of fluids in the body.
• Mood Enhancement: Theobromine can have a positive effect on mood, as it may increase the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, such as serotonin and dopamine. These neurotransmitters are associated with feelings of happiness and well-being.
• Cognitive function: Some research suggests that theobromine may have a positive impact on cognitive function, including memory and learning. However, more research is needed to fully understand this effect.
• Respiratory Health: Theobromine has been shown to have bronchodilator properties, meaning that it can help relax the muscles in the airways. This may provide relief for individuals with respiratory conditions like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
• Antioxidant Properties: Theobromine is an antioxidant, which can help protect the body from damage caused by free radicals. This may reduce the risk of chronic diseases and support overall health.

Caffeine (from green coffee bean extract)

Green coffee bean extract is derived from unroasted, or "green," coffee beans. It has gained popularity as a dietary supplement due to its potential health benefits, primarily related to weight loss and antioxidant properties. One of the primary components of green coffee bean extract is caffeine, which is also present in roasted coffee beans. Caffeine from green coffee bean extract has similar effects to caffeine from other sources, such as roasted coffee beans, tea, or energy drinks, but with a reported “smoother” energy release.

Here are some of the key benefits and effects of caffeine:

• Stimulant effects: Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant that can help improve alertness, focus, and cognitive function. This makes it a popular choice for individuals looking to enhance their mental performance, particularly in situations that require sustained attention.
• Physical performance: Caffeine can enhance physical performance by increasing endurance, strength, and power output. This makes it a popular ergogenic aid among athletes and fitness enthusiasts.
• Weight loss: Caffeine may help with weight loss by increasing metabolism, promoting fat oxidation, and providing a temporary boost in energy expenditure. Some studies suggest that green coffee bean extract, which contains caffeine and other bioactive compounds like chlorogenic acid, may have additional weight loss benefits.
• Mood enhancement: Caffeine can have a positive effect on mood by increasing the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine and serotonin. This can lead to an improvement in overall well-being and feelings of happiness.
• Antioxidant properties: Caffeine has antioxidant properties that can help protect the body from damage caused by free radicals. This may contribute to reducing the risk of chronic diseases and supporting overall health.

Yerba Mate Leaf Extract 4:1

Yerba mate is made from the dried leaves of the Ilex paraguariensis plant. It has been consumed for centuries for its numerous health benefits. Here are some of the key benefits of yerba mate:

• Antioxidant properties: Yerba mate is rich in antioxidants, including polyphenols and flavonoids, which help protect the body against oxidative stress and damage caused by free radicals. This may contribute to reducing the risk of chronic diseases and supporting overall health.
• Weight management: Some research suggests that yerba mate may help with weight management by increasing metabolism, reducing appetite, and promoting fat oxidation.
• Digestive health: Yerba mate has been traditionally used to improve digestion and relieve gastrointestinal issues, such as constipation, diarrhea, and indigestion. Yerba Mate may also help maintain a healthy gut microbiome.
• Immune support: The antioxidants and other compounds found in yerba mate may help support the immune system, potentially reducing the risk of infections and other illnesses.
• Cardiovascular health: Yerba mate may have a positive effect on heart health by improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and helping to regulate cholesterol levels.

Naringin (from pomelo fruit extract [Citrus maxima]

I started putting Naringin in supplements because it has been demonstrated to increase the efficacy and absorption of many ingredients, giving you more bang for your buck. But there is so much more to this ingredient.

Naringin is a bioactive flavonoid glycoside primarily found in grapefruit and other citrus fruits. It is responsible for the bitter taste of grapefruit and has been studied for its potential health benefits.

Here are some key benefits of Naringin:

• Antioxidant properties: Naringin has strong antioxidant properties that help protect the body against oxidative stress and damage caused by free radicals. This may contribute to reducing the risk of chronic diseases and supporting overall health.
• Anti-inflammatory effects: Naringin exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, which may help alleviate inflammation-related conditions such as arthritis, asthma, and inflammatory bowel disease.
• Cardiovascular health: Naringin may have a positive impact on cardiovascular health by improving blood lipid profiles, reducing cholesterol levels, and inhibiting the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. This may contribute to a reduced risk of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases.
• Blood glucose regulation: Some studies suggest that naringin can help regulate blood glucose levels by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing glucose absorption in the intestines. This may be beneficial for individuals with diabetes or those at risk for developing the condition.
• Neuroprotective effects: Naringin has been shown to have neuroprotective effects in some preclinical studies, suggesting that it may help protect brain cells from damage and support cognitive function.
• Weight management: Some research suggests that naringin may help with weight management by increasing metabolism and reducing fat accumulation.

InnoSlim® Panax notoginseng root extract and Astragalus membranaceous root extract

InnoSlim® is a stimulant-free ingredient composed of NLF-05 Panax notoginseng and Astragalus membranaceus to regulate blood sugar and lipid metabolism through the adiponectin and AMPK signaling pathway.

While supplementing with InnoSlim®, individuals may experience reduced fat from an important interaction taking place within the body called ACC activation, which is mediated by the Adiponectin-AMPK pathway.*

InnoSlim® decreases glucose absorption in the intestine by reducing an important glucose transporter called SGLT1. Then increasing glucose absorption in muscles and fat cells through increased glucose transport protein GLUT4. These associated effects reduce circulating blood glucose and fat build-up in your body, which means a generally healthier state of being.*

MTS Nutrition YHCL - Drop Factor Booster

Drop Factor X is perfectly paired with MTS Nutrition YHCL! Studies show that the effective dose is .2mg per kilogram of body weight per day. That is a LOT of Yohimbine HCl and simply too much for some people. Also, while the max dose of the other ingredients covers a wide range of weights and the two genders, Yohimbine HCl (being weight dependent) requires a varying degree of dosing, and also, you need to ease into the higher doses more than other fat burning agents to assess tolerance. This is why MTS Nutrition has a Yohimbine HCl.

We have a comprehensive article on how to properly dose and supplement Yohimbine. Read the article by clicking here!
