ULTRA-CARNITINE 300mg 30caps

$26.94

Each capsule contains: Elemental L-Carnitine Fumarate 165 mg., Elemental Acetyl-Carnitine 135 mg. for a total of 300 mg. of active Carnitine.
Quantity:
Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino acid metabolized from Lysine and Methionine (with Vitamins B-6 and C) and synthesized in the liver and kidneys. The food sources are meat and milk and it is absent in strict vegetarian diets. Carnitine is a necessary component of heart and skeletal muscle tissue, and it is involved in lipid metabolism functioning to transport fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membranes where they can be broken down and used for the production of energy.
HOW DOES CARNITINE EFFECT WEIGHT LOSS?
In order to lose weight,it is necessary to burn excessive fat in a process, which converts long chain fatty acids into energy (beta-oxidation). Those who diet may lose at lease 25-30% of the weight from water loss and lean muscle tissue instead of fat. Carnitine is the only element that can transport the long chain fatty acids across the mitochondria, where they can be turned into energy in this process of beta-oxidation. Since low caloric diets decrease the amount of Carnitine available from food sources, the body then uses glycogen stores for energy instead of burning up fat. Carnitine, by stimulating oxidation, reduces the utilization of the branch chain amino acids, which if decreased result in reducing lean body mass rather than fat. By preventing the utilization of the glucogenic amino acids for energy, there is a higher amount available to supply the brain with energy and help induce appetite suppression.
