Retiva: Sustained Energy for Modern Living Abstract A new technology has dramatically improved the ability of the xanthine family of nutrients to supply a sustained level of energy throughout the entire day. Although xanthines have been shown in numerous clinical trials to improve human performance, their effectiveness has been compromised by their transient nature. Now, a new sustained-release technology has made it possible for everyone to enjoy the benefits of xanthine consumption improved vigilance, stamina, mental clarity, learning and maximized physical conditioning safely and effectively. Acting by a combination of improved nervous system and musculoskeletal system function, aided by increased metabolism and lipolysis, Retiva answers the demands of modern living. The Problem Fatigue. Sluggish thinking. Insufficient energy to meet the needs of a full day. A growing dependence on a variety of pills and drinks that offer empty promises and unsatisfactory results. The problem is a combination of increasingly demanding work and recreation schedules and little time to seek out and implement health practices that support that kind of lifestyle. It is certainly difficult to deal with the hectic pace of modern living. The Problem is Not Your Fault It should be apparent that the problem does not stem from any defect in modern human beings. It isnt that there is something wrong with us. Humans are designed to perform perfectly well under normal conditions. The body has an amazing energy production capacity. Under ordinary conditions it can repair and mend itself and generate all the vitality required. But modern living is becoming entirely too energy-draining. Muscles, nerves and immune processes need extraordinary amounts of energy to cope effectively with current pressures. The Problem is Solved: Introducing Retiva What is needed is an energy supplement that truly delivers the necessary punch required to sustain an entire days energy requirement. The scientific staff at Body Innoventions has investigated this problem for years. It was easy to define what the solution should look like. The best solution would be something that provides a constant, even source of energy and stamina, something that keeps the mind sharp and the reflexes quick and sure. The hard part was finding it. Only as a result of modern technology, based upon mountains of applied research, has the solution become possible. And, like all elegant solutions, it was actually very simple. The embodiment of the solution eventually arrived at is currently known as Retiva. The uniqueness of Retiva is based on a process that slowly releases energizing nutrients over the course of several hours in a specific, predictable and constant manner. This revolutionary product is engineered to provide a burst of energy within a few a minutes and then to sustain a high level of energy for the rest of the day. Retiva comprises a list of energy-enhancing nutrients, not the least of which is the surest, safest source of energy on the face of the Earth: Xanthine specifically, trimethylxanthine, the active stimulant in so many wonderful vitality-increasing plants. However, there is one problem with xanthine that has formerly made it a not entirely desirable stimulant. The problem is that xanthines peak very quickly in the blood and then begin to wane. Repeated daily dosing is required to offset this deficiency. The result is a series of daily ups and downs an energy yo-yo effect that may leave a person feeling fatigued, restless, nervous and anxious. An unsatisfactory approach to dealing with the yo-yo effect has been to consume an exorbitant amount of xanthine at one time and then ride out the tremors and jitters for the next couple of hours. Retiva offers a much better solution. Retiva provides a constant, modest level of xanthine in the body all day. One can now draw on that energizing molecule when needed, without experiencing the unpleasant effects from stimulant highs and lows. Retiva also contains natural plant sources of xanthines, as well as a bevy of amino acids that the body uses to modulate energy production. Of special importance is the presence of taurine and tyrosine tyrosine, because it has been shown to extend the effects of agents like xanthines and taurine because of its critical role in muscle and nervous system physiology. Taurine helps stabilize the movement of mineral ions across cell membranes and thus affects neural transmission. Feelings of energy, vitality and mental acuity thus depend on the adequate taurine levels. Why Xanthine Xanthines constitute a family of stimulants that work primarily through the central nervous system and the sympathetic division of the peripheral nervous system. They produce a release of neurotransmitters and hormones. Two of the most important of these hormones are adrenaline and noradrenaline. These agents produce an almost immediate effect on vigilance and a more sustained effect on stamina. Xanthines are rapidly absorbed in the intestine 80% and the stomach 20%. Because of their lipophilic nature, they rapidly penetrate cell membranes and easily cross the blood-brain barrier. The use of xanthines as energizing aids has received considerable attention in recent decades, following on the heels of several centuries of use for improving the performance of tribal runners, trained athletes, military personnel and the population at large. From the habit of chewing gooroo nut on hundred mile long runs through the jungle to the increasing needs of marathon athletes from ancient herbal decoctions to modern medicines from the enhancement of exercise to the enhancement of weight loss throughout history, xanthines have dramatically improved the lifestyles of millions. A good deal of the research on xanthines has shown that they exert their ergogenic properties in two ways. First, they energize the central nervous system, which results in the nearly immediate increase in mental clarity. Second, and equally important, they stimulate lipolysis in fat cells, thereby providing cellular fuel to meet the needs of people involved in prolonged physical or mental exertion, as is required in a typical days work or play output. Lipolysis is the process whereby stored body fat is converted into forms the body uses for short term and long term energy production. Recently, the armed forces of the United States and Canada have become seriously interested in the possible application of xanthines as a method for increasing the performance of soldiers under acute and chronic stress. When people are exposed to several stressors, mental and physical performance is substantially degraded. The military was the first to recognize the serious lack of procedures for counteracting this problem. Astute students of military history, however, would have noticed that plant materials containing xanthines have often been used by military personnel to ward off sleepiness while on guard duty and to maintain vigilance under combat situations lasting for several days without relief. In one of the most rigorous experimental investigations of the possible role of a trimethylxanthine to offset acute stress, researchers at the U.S. Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine, in conjunction with scientists from Tufts University and Pennington Biomedical Research Laboratory, examined whether moderate doses of this xanthine would reduce adverse effects of sleep deprivation and exposure to severe, multifactor, environmental and operational stress on mental performance. In this study, U.S. Navy Sea-Air-Land SEAL trainees received either placebo or xanthine capsules after 3 days of sleep deprivation and continuous exposure to other stressors, including running, lifting, paddling, swimming, calisthenics and other rigors inflicted during the appropriately named Hell Week period of training As might be expected, sleep loss and exposure to other severe stressors resulted in a profound deterioration in all aspects of cognitive function assessed. Measured against placebo, the xanthine-treated group experienced a significant improvement in visual vigilance, reaction time, repeated acquisition and self-reported fatigue and sleepiness, with the greatest effects on vigilance, reaction time and alertness. Interestingly, marksmanship, a task that could be affected by shakiness or jitteriness, was not affected by xanthine. The researchers concluded that even under the most adverse conditions, moderate doses of xanthine can improve cognitive function, including vigilance, learning, memory and mood state. Other studies have yielded similar results. For example, in a study carried out under the Defense RampD of Canada, a group of civilian and military personnel were enlisted in a trial to examine the duration of xanthines ergogenic effect and whether it differs between users and non-users of the substance. In this trial, patients were required to ride to exhaustion on a stationary bicycle, following consumption of 5 mgkg of trimethylxanthine. In the end, the compound allowed the subjects to exercise for about 12 hour longer, and the non-users benefited slightly more than the users about 5 minutes. Not only the duration but the magnitude of response was greater. The energizing effect achieved through xanthine ingestion has been demonstrated in several other studi On Sale |
