Go for the patents

It's nice to know that a component in your supplement has been patented by a company for its effectiveness and uniqueness in the marketplace. There are so many supplements that use many of the more common, pedestrian ingredients. For instance, a supplement called PhenterFein uses Citrus Aurantium, not the patented form.

Advantra-Z is the only known patented form of Citrus Aurantium, or Bitter Orange Extract, on the market at this time. Citrus Aurantium is believed to be useful for boosting metabolic rate, burning more fat and sustaining high energy levels. However, the patented Advantra-Z is said to be at least several times more potent than the civilian version.
