Control del peso

En el caso del control del peso, disminuir la masa grasa mientras se preserva la masa muscular es el objetivo final. To decrease body fat, it must be used for energy via beta-oxidation. While weight management and sustained energy are different applications, both require using fatty acids, breaking them down, and converting them into energy in the form of ATP. Carnipure® L-carnitine is the nutrient needed to help support this conversion of fat into metabolic energy. As Carnipure® L-Carnitine supplementation can increase beta-oxidation, this results in glucose sparing and decreased breakdown of amino acids for energy production.
