Sun Shots Product Details

What is Sun ShotsTM?

Sun ShotsTM, Tan + Energy, is a convenient, great tasting, energy “shot” drink formulated to maximize your tanning experience. By maximize we mean that Sun ShotsTM will do the following:

TAN + ENERGY Blend

Sun Shot’sTM, Tan + Energy Blend, is formulated to maximize the tanning process and energizes your tan with long-lasting energy. Tyrosine, one of the main ingredients, stimulates melanin production in the skin, which is essential to producing a deep dark tan. A combination of Amino Acids, vitamins, minerals, natural stimulants and enzymes work together to instantly provide a burst of long-lasting energy.

TANNING NUTRIENTS


TYROSINE

Tyrosine is a important Amino Acid in the body. In the tanning process Tyrosine plays a vital role in the process of creating melanin, which is the skin pigment that gives the “tan” that tanners seek. Without Tyrosine there would be no melanin and therefore no ability for your body to tan.

COPPER

Copper plays a key role in the development and maintenance of healthy skin and hair. The body needs copper to produce the skin pigment Melanin, which when oxidized by UV light is what gives a Deep Dark Tan

TYROSINASE

Tyrosinase is a copper-containing enzyme present in plant and animal tissues that catalyzes the production of melanin and other pigments from tyrosine by oxidation, in the case of tanning this means that Tyrosinase is a co-factor in the tanning process.

CHOLINE BITARTRATE & INOSITOL

Both of these substances are integral in the transportation and assimilation of substances within the body. Choline also helps in the conversion of Tyrosine into Melanin. Inositol promotes the formation of cell membranes.

NIACIN

A well known vitamin for increasing blood flow, increased blood flow insures the transportation of the body’s nutrients to those areas demanding it.

FOLIC ACID

Utilized during the conversion of Tyrosine into Melanin and for the formation of red blood cells.

ENERGY NUTRIENTS


N - ACETYL- L - TYROSINE

An amino acid that transmits nerve impulses to the brain, elevates mood, improves memory and increases mental alertness.

PHENYLALANINE

An essential amino acid that elevates the mood, enhances memory, alertness and learning and suppresses the appetite.

TAURINE

Taurine is a conditionally essential amino acid that is naturally occurring in the human body. "Conditionally essential" means under certain conditions, as, for example, in conditions of high stress or physical exertion, increased amounts of taurine are eliminated from the body and cannot be replaced by the body in sufficient amounts.

CAFFEINE

Provides a boost of energy and feeling of heightened alertness. Caffeine also facilitates the rapid absorption of nutrients, including B-vitamins known for producing energy.

MALIC ACID

Malic Acid is a naturally occurring chemical our bodies require. It is a biochemical product of the Kreb’s Cycle, a chain of reactions involved in the production of cellular energy. The body synthesizes Malic Acid during the process of converting carbohydrates to energy.

GLUCURONOLACTONE

A natural metabolite found in the human body. It is produced by the metabolization of glucose in the liver, and has been clinically shown to reduce sleepiness and sleep-related traffic accidents. It is widely known to improve mental performance, reaction time, concentration and memory.

VITAMIN B12

Helps boost metabolism and strengthen our immune systems. In large does B12 is known to increase energy.

D RIBOSE

D Ribose is a naturally occurring sugar shown to assist in quickly replenishing lost ATP energy storage. ATP is the body’s primary energy-carrying molecule and can be lost during strenuous activity.
