FitShape L-Carnitine and Green Tea
Extract
L-Carnitine health benefits
• L-Carnitine will give an energy
boost, which in addition converts body fat to fuel
and elevates certain enzymes needed to metabolize sugars, starches, and other
carbohydrates. Athletes and casual exercisers can benefit from L-carnitine
supplementation because it reduces the accumulation of lactic acid, which is
responsible for the burn felt inside the muscles. This may enable exercisers to
gain without the pain, as one study confirmed.
• L-Carnitine is also
useful in clearing the bloodstream of ammonia and aids in creating glycogen used
to store essential glucose.
• L-Carnitine has been used in connection
with angina, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder, congestive heart failure,
heart attacks, and intermittent claudication.
• L-Carnitine can help
prevent muscle atrophy. Anyone suffering from a severe degenerative disease,
such as cancer or AIDS, may benefit from L-carnitine supplementation.
•
Cardiomyopathy, a disease of the heart muscle, becomes a distinct possibility
for those suffering from carnitine deficiency. This amino acid protects the
heart from damage when a heart attack or a spasm cuts off the oxygen
supply.
• Low thyroid function may indicate a need for carnitine to help
overcome low energy levels and the tendency to gain weight.
• Kidney
dialysis rinses away amino acids, causing weak, tired condition, which is
threatened by high triglycerides. L-Carnitine supplements may be advisable in
such situations.
