What if you found a new substance that burned fat, enhanced fat utilization, spared muscle glycogen, and reduced muscle catabolism? Youd probably think you found a newly developed muscle building drug that the FDA doesnt know about. Its true that anabolic steroids certainly do all of the above. But, unlike steroids, your newfound substance does not raise blood serum triglycerides or lower HDLs (the good cholesterol). In fact, it does just the opposite giving you a much healthier blood lipid profile. If you saw both scientific and user reports suggesting that just such a substance exists, and the only reported side-effect was a euphoric mental state, would you be interested? Pretty ridiculous question, isnt it? This is Legit The fact is such a remarkable substance does exist. You probably even know a little about it. The name of this remarkable substance is L-Carnitine. Some of the fat burning products youve used in the past might list L-Carnitine on the label and you sure didnt experience the benefits noted above. Thats okay, theres a number of reasons why that might have happened. Lets just say the scientific community has been impressed enough to fund a substantial amount of medical and scientific research centering around L-Carnitine. In fact, at least three U.S. pharmaceutical companies now make prescription tablets of L-Carnitine. How it Works L-Carnitine basically serves two extremely important functions as far as were concerned as bodybuilders, burning fat and the metabolism of branched chain amino acids (BCAAs). L-Carnitine is a co-factor which is required for transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria of your muscle cells where they serve as a substrate for energy production while sparing muscle glycogen. Carnitine deficiency causes the fatty acids to back up and accumulate in the blood ultimately resulting in additional deposition of fat, usually right in the areas where you already have the greatest accumulation. L-Carnitine works synergistically with branched chain amino acids to increase their net metabolism. Remember that the BCAAs are the major amino acid constituents of your muscles. An increase in the amino acid content of the muscle will result in, at the very least, increased muscular hardness and possibly new muscle tissue. To sum up, L-Carnitine increases the utilization of fats for energy, sparing glycogen and amino acids. In essence, L-Carnitine shifts your fuel source utilization towards fats, leaving your amino acids and glycogen free to build muscle.
