Agel FIT is a unique approach to weight loss and appetite suppression. This product works from a couple of different angles. When taken before meals, Agel Fit can cause a mild sensation of fullness, helping you to eat smaller portions. In addition to this, Agel Fit can prevent your body from storing the carbohydrates that your body doesn't use, as well as increasing your ability to "burn" what you may have already stored.

Agel OHM is a wonderful tasting blend of energy creating herbs, Taurine, D-Ribose, and B Vitamins. All of these have been combined together to create a product that provides energy and mental alertness.

Agel UMI is based on the beneficial polysaccharides found in ocean seaweed and brown algae. Its unique name literally means, "from the sea." The strength and uniqueness of Agel UMI is that it provides the nutrition and high mineral content of ocean plants in an easily consumable, green-apple flavored, fast-acting gel form. The active ingredient in UMI is Fucoidan, a well-studied component of brown algae. Fucoidan has long been considered a natural source of good nutrition. Sea-going people have incorporated sea plants into their daily diets for centuries for the benefits they provided. Today, years of study and research suggests that Fucoidan may indeed possess these benefits. Fucoidan has interested many scientists and researchers of late, many of whom consider it one of the ocean's greatest treasures.

Agel FLX combines four natural ingredients to help provide the lubrication, cushioning and natural maintenance that joint flexibility requires, all in a simple-to-use single-serve package. And thanks to Agel gel suspension technology, the active ingredients in Agel FLX are quickly assimilated into the body for the optimal promotion of joint health.

Agel PRO gets its power from ultra-filtered whey protein isolate, the highest quality protein known. This technology creates a protein that is complete (containing all nine essential amino acids, plus several others), easy to digest, and 90 percent pure. Whey isolate is a rich source of the critical amino acids that give athletes an edge by metabolizing directly into muscle tissue. It also is an excellent source of leucine, an essential amino acid that helps build lean muscle mass while promoting fat loss.

Why is the Gel Technology Advantageous?

There are two key factors that influence the efficacy of any nutritional supplement: the timing of the ingestion, and the bioavailability of the nutrients. The convenience of the portable gel pack delivery system that Agel uses allows first for the proper timing of ingestion to correctly correspond with meals, which in turn enhances the overall absorption and use of the nutrient. And second, the Gel Technology forces the critical nutrients to remain suspended in gel, thus optimizing the bioavailability of those nutrients when ingested. Traditional supplements found in pills and capsules do not always fully absorb in the digestive track, allowing a portion of the critical nutrients to travel through the digestive track without ever interacting with the lining of the stomach or intestines.

Where are the nutrients in Agel products absorbed?

Ingredients in each of the products contain nutrients that have specific (although widely different) methods of absorption along the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. For most of these nutrients, the primary location is in the small intestines. By suspending nutrients in a gel, all of the nutrients are readily available to be digested and absorbed in the GI tract.

In the Agel MIN, why is there only 100% of the RDI of vitamins?

There is increasing research and literature to support the concept of moderation in vitamin supplementation. The old adage that too much of a good thing can be harmful is becoming a widely held view amongst nutritionists and scientists around the world. We feel that the best way to enhance healthy living for the greatest number of people is to create a product that provides exactly 100 percent of the RDI of vitamins in a single dose.

Can pregnant women take these products?

There are some ingredients in the Agel EXO that have been listed in some texts as not appropriate for pregnant women. Consequently, we would recommend that pregnant women not consume Agel EXO.
In addition, it is not recommended that pregnant women take in more than 5000 IU of vitamin A. There is 5460 IU of vitamin A in the Agel MIN product. If you are pregnant, prior to taking any vitamins, herbs, supplements or over-the-counter medications, we strongly recommend that you consult with your physician.

Can children take an entire Agel MIN pack?

As a point of reference, the American Academy of Pediatrics does not endorse vitamin supplementation in children under 16 years old, except for specific groups with chronic illnesses. Furthermore, the mineral needs of children are unclear.
Agel MIN contains 100% of the RDI of the essential vitamins and selected essential minerals for adults. Most children's vitamins currently on the market contain about the same amount of vitamins as Agel MIN, without the minerals. If you elect to use Agel MIN for your children, the preparation does not contain enough of the vitamins or minerals to be considered dangerous, however, an entire gel pack of Agel MIN is probably more than necessary. We recommend consulting with your pediatrician about appropriate dosing of the vitamins and minerals for your children.

Can I take all four of the Agel Gel products in one day?

As far as we know, there are no problems with consuming all four of the Agel Gel products in the same day. Agel MIN contains 100% of the RDI of vitamins and up to 50% of the RDI of minerals for adults. Agel OHM contains a vitamin B-complex that would result in duplication of the B vitamins. If only one of each of the gels was taken in the same day, most of the B vitamins would be less than 150% of the RDI for an adult, and 400% of vitamin B12. Agel EXO contains exotic fruit purees and plant extracts that are high in antioxidants. Because vitamins C and E are both effective anti-oxidant, there would be duplication of the anti-oxidants as well. Prior to taking any vitamins, herbs, supplements or over-the-counter medications, we recommend that you consult with your physician.

Can Agel FIT be taken by children?

We recommend consulting with your pediatrician about appropriate food supplementation and weight management regimens for children. As a general rule, we do not recommend diet aids for children, and we therefore do not recommend using Agel FIT in the pediatric population. We advocate healthy eating habits and plenty of physical activity as a means for children to manage weight. To initiate an early habit of dependence on dieting aids in childhood may be sending the wrong message.

Are there any drug interactions related to any of the Agel products?

We are only aware of two potential drug interaction concerns. They involve anyone taking medications that increase serotonin levels. In particular, medications in the category of SSRI’s (Selective Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitors) are of concern. We strongly advise consultation with your physician prior to using Agel FIT or OHM if you are taking these medications. In Agel OHM, panax ginseng is one of the active ingredients and may cause increased serotonin levels in the brain. Agel FIT has Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) as its primary active ingredient. HCA has been shown to be effective in part by its ability to reduce appetite by increasing brain serotonin levels. In general, for individuals taking medications that increase brain serotonin, there is a theoretical risk of serotonin syndrome.

Are Agel's products "All Natural?"

All of the ingredients in the Agel products come from natural sources except the preservative Sodium Benzoate and the synthetic Taurine found in OHM. Synthetic Taurine is preferred over natural Taurine because natural Taurine is derived from bile. In order to be sensitive to all Agel team members’ varying religious beliefs, we chose to use the synthetic source.
