SUPER
L-CARNITINE
Fat-Loss Protocol – 3 For enhanced fat-loss
programming
Super L-Carnitine is essential for fat burning.
I.B. Fritz and K.T.N. Yue, physiologists from
the University of Michigan, discovered that
Carnitine actually accelerates the fat-burning
process in the liver and muscles. Without
it, fat is unable to penetrate the walls of
the mitochondria of the muscle cells. Carnitine
is the shuttle that carries fat into your
body’s furnaces (muscles) to be burned
for energy. Super L-Carnitine increases the
rate of fat utilization for fuel.
Unfortunately, the richest natural sources
of Carnitine are meats such as sheep, lamb
and beef — which are also high in calories
and saturated fats. Plus they’d have
to be eaten in excessive quantities to supply
sufficient amounts of Carnitine. One serving
of Super L- Carnitine is equal to one and
one half pounds of beef without the calories
and fat.
Here’s a simple analogy to demonstrate
how Super L-Carnitine works. Imagine your
blood stream is a river. Your body-fat cells
are little people in boats floating down the
river to reach their final destination: The
Muscle Hotel, (muscle tissue-where fat will
be burned as fuel for energy). But, when they
arrive, they find the door too heavy to open.
Super L-Carnitine is the doorman to the Muscle
Hotel. It allows your body-fat to more easily
enter (permeate) your muscle tissue to be
burned as fuel energy.
The primary function of Carnitine is to facilitate
the transport of fatty acids from the cell’s
cytoplasm across the mitochondria membrane
to the interior of the mitochondria where
oxidation occurs (fat-burning process.) Without
carnitine as a carrier, the fatty acids are
unable to penetrate the membrane of the mitochondria.
This will result in a decreased rate of fat
utilization and energy. L-Carnitine also helps
to remove by-products of fatty acid metabolism
and other toxic compounds from within the
cells. |
