ActivAMP® is extracted from Gynostemma pentaphyllum, an adaptogenic herb, and is standardized to two saponins - Gypenoside L and 20(S)-Ginsenoside Rg3. With a family of compounds that increases protiens that are produced during exercise. These proteins activate an enzyme called AMP­activated protein kinase, or AMPk, which is often called the “master metabolic regulator” because it switches on the same fat-burning and energy-producing metabolic processes that exercise does. By regulating metabolic activity (in the liver, lipids, skeletal muscle and brain), AMPk influences glucose utilization, oxidation, and appetite.
