The present invention is directed to novel compositions of bio-active compounds comprising 4-hydroxyisoleucine and one or more compounds selected from the group of amino acids, alkaloids, glycosides, volatile oils, saponins, sapogenins, mannans, flavonoids, fatty acids, vitamins and provitamins, minerals, and carbohydrates. Preferably, the novel compositions of bio-active compounds include 4-hydroxyisoleucine and one or more amino acids selected from the group consisting of arginine, aspartate, threonine, serine, glutamate, proline, glycine, alanine, cysteine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, tryptophan, phenylalanine, omithine, proline, lysine, histidine, and gamma-aminobutyrate. The composition of bio-active compounds preferably include between about ten percent and about seventy percent of 4-hydroxyisoleucine and between about twenty percent and about forty percent of other amino acids. The bio-active compounds of the novel composition of the present invention may be derived, isolated, and/or extracted from Fenugreek seeds.

Methods for deriving, isolating, and/or extracting amino acid compositions from Fenugreek seed

A composition of bio-active compounds and methods for facilitating and supporting the metabolism and transport of glucose and carbohydrates into muscle cells. Preferably, the composition of bio-active compounds include 4-hydroxyisoleucine and one or more amino acids selected from the group consisting of arginine, aspartate, threonine, serine, glutamate, proline, glycine, alanine, cysteine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, tryptophan, phenylalanine, ornithine, lysine, histidine and gamma-amino butyrate. In one presently preferred embodiment of the present invention, the bio-active compounds are extracted from fenugreek seeds. A method for extracting a composition of bio-active compounds from fenugreek seeds is also disclosed, wherein the method comprises the steps of: (1) providing a plurality of fenugreek seeds; (2) preparing the fenugreek seeds; and (3) extracting a composition of bio-active compounds from the fenugreek seeds, wherein the bio-active compounds comprise 4-hydroxyisoleucine and one or more amino acids selected from the group consisting of arginine, aspartate, threonine, serine, glutamate, proline, glycine, alanine, cysteine, valine, methionine, isoleucine, leucine, tryptophan, phenylalanine, ornithine, lysine, histidine and gamma-amino butyrate. The composition of bio-active compounds and methods for extraction of same preferably include between about 10% and 70% of 4-hydroxyisoleucine and between about 20% and 40% of the amino acids.
