What is L-carnitine?
L-carnitine is a vitamin-like substance with an important physiological role, naturally occurring in foods of animal origin and synthesized in the human body from the amino acids lysine and methionine. It is present primarily in muscle tissue and the heart, as well as in nervous tissue.
During exercise, the body primarily draws energy from unnecessary fat tissue and effectively burns even the most resistant fat. It is L-carnitine which takes part in the metabolism of lipids, acting as a specific transporter of long-chain fatty acids to the cell mitochondria, thus enabling their combustion and energy production.
In addition, carnitine ensures an appropriate ratio of acetyl-CoA to CoA in cells and exhibits antioxidant activity. The carnitine derivative acetyl carnitine is also a donor of acetyl groups for the synthesis of acetylcholine - an important neurotransmitter, and recent studies indicate that it also affects male fertility.
Green tea extract extract supports metabolism and contributes to fat oxidation. Green tea owes its slimming properties to catechins, in particular the substance epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). The catechins contained in green tea have a significant and multidirectional effect on the reduction of body fat.
Vitamin C positively influences the functioning of the immune system and is the best known antioxidant. Thanks to its antioxidant properties, it plays a protective role in the body. Vitamin C also stimulates the production of collagen, which ensures the proper functioning of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin and teeth.
Furthermore, it contributes to:
- MAINTAINING NORMAL ENERGY METABOLISM,
- THE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM,
- MAINTAINING NORMAL PSYCHOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS,
- PROTECTING CELLS FROM OXIDATIVE STRESS
- THE REDUCTION OF TIREDNESS AND FATIGUE.
Vitamin C also helps in regeneration of reduced form of vitamin E and increases absorption of iron.
Thiamine i.e. vitamin B1 which helps in the proper functioning of the heart, nervous system, maintenance of correct psychological functions, as well as contributes to the maintenance of correct energy metabolism.
Vitamin B6 supports correct functioning of immune system and maintenance of correct psychological functions. It supports correct synthesis of cysteine and correct functioning of nervous system. Additionally, VITAMIN B6 helps in correct metabolism of homocysteine and protein and glycogen.
