Reflex L-Carnitine (120 Caps)
L-Carnitine is a physiological substance, essential for energy production & for fat metabolism. Quite simply your body actually uses L-Carnitine to transport fat into your bodys cells for energy, without it your body will not be able to burn fat whatsoever
- no matter how much exercise you do! Supplementing with L-Carnitine Can Help You Burn Fat More Efficiently When used in conjunction with a reduced calorie diet & moderate exercise, L-Carnitine supplementation resulted in a much greater loss in body weight in obese people, a decrease in low density lipoprotein (LDL) & blood sugar levels & a reduction in blood pressure. Many more studies have indicated that supplementing with L-Carnitine can reduce body fat, & its also proven to be very safe with no side effects. In addition to supporting the cardiovascular system & promoting a healthier weight, L-Carnitines fundamental role in fat metabolism may result in multiple benefits for athletes & physically active people: An increasing body of scientific evidence illustrates the favourable effects of L-Carnitine for athletes & physically active people in regard to performance, fatigue & recovery.
Performance L-Carnitine supplementation increased the peak treadmill running speed in marathon runners & increased VO2max in cyclists & long distance walkers. Positive effects on VO2max are good news because it is one of the most important measures of a persons ability to perform high intensity exercise for longer than 4 to 5 minutes
Fatigue Early onset of fatigue during exercise performance is detrimental to both the high performance athlete & the physically active person. Two factors can cause fatigue during exercise: lactic acid accumulation & muscle glycogen depletion. Research indicates that L-Carnitine supplementation decreases lactic acid accumulation & spares glycogen & therefore plays a role in delaying fatigue, as described by various research groups
Recovery The most recent clinical study opens new avenues in regard to a role for L-Carnitine apart from its classical muscle energetic function: daily L-Carnitine consumption prior to high intensity exercise significantly reduced muscle pain & decreased muscle damage in untrained subjects. In simple terms, this means that L-Carnitine supplementation can help in the recovery process. The protective effects might be partly due to enhancement of oxygen supply to the muscle via increased blood flow
