What exactly are 5-HTP and Diiodotyrosine and why are they important? Do they cause side effects?
5- HTP is an amino acid produced by the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia that acts as a natural and powerful appetite suppressant. What makes 5-HTP most remarkable is that its appetite suppressant effects are macronutrient-specific. For example, increased intake of carbohydrates can cause a sleepy feeling due to increased serotonin levels. Nervousness can cause people to crave carbohydrates, possibly due their serotonin elevating properties and thus, carbohydrate craving can be viewed as a deficit in serotonin. This theory is supported by weight loss studies using 5-HTP: carbohydrate calories were reduced, but not protein or fat calories, making 5-HTP ideal for those on low-carbohydrate diets. Diiodotyrosine helps to keep the thyroid functioning normally during weight management - a critical component to long-term success. Thyroid function is critical to metabolism and weight management. During dieting, the body inevitably slows down production of the thyroid gland's hormones T3 and T4 in an attempt to keep the body in equilibrium. Dieters are forced to reduce calorie intake to the point where the body starts to use muscle glycogen as a source of energy. Diiodotyrosine, a building block for T3 and T4, can assist the thyroid gland to maintain its function and help preserve lean muscle. Neither 5-HTP or Diiodotyrosine are known to cause harmful side effects like heart palpitations or the jitteriness associated with many other weight management products.

The L-Carnitine contained in our formula naturally helps to support the weight management process by oxidizing fat, in addition to being useful for fatigue, athletic performance and enhanced overall energy.

I'm familiar with Coral Calcium. How is Jen Fe Full Life Calcium different?
Jen Fe Full Life Calcium is an exclusive formula made with AquaMin, a renewable seaweed derivative that comes from the pure waters of the North Sea. AquaMin is free from the pollutants sometimes found in the other forms of calcium. Normally, calcium can be difficult to absorb. AquaMin's molecular structure makes it easier to absorb; an extremely high surface area allows for greater bioavailability. Calcium is important not only for its positive effects on our bone structure, but also for its link with weight management. Finally, a calcium product such as Full Life Calcium helps address a balanced body pH level, offsetting the modern-day acidic diet.
