Do not irrigate unprofessional ones. I really need these materials now. Thank you.
Analysis:
Glucomannan (GM) has a strong swelling power, which can not only fill the gastrointestinal tract and eliminate hunger, but also control weight and achieve the goal of losing weight and bodybuilding because it contains very few calories. But it is a dangerous ingredient to lose weight-glucomannan is actually a food thickener, which will cause intestinal obstruction, thus affecting appetite and eventually leading to digestive dysfunction and arrhythmia.
At the beginning of the 20th century, scientists discovered L-carnitine in muscle extract, which was later proved to be an amino acid widely existing in human body and involved in many metabolic processes. L-carnitine is an essential nutrient under certain conditions and an essential auxiliary factor of human fat metabolism. The oxidation of fatty acids needs to be carried out in the β zone of mitochondria in biological cells, but fatty acids can not directly penetrate the inner membrane of mitochondria. The main function of L- carnitine is to transport long-chain fatty acids from mitochondrial membrane to membrane as a carrier to promote fatty acid oxidation. L- carnitine, as the carrier of fatty acid transport, transports the medium and long-chain fatty acids in the outer membrane of mitochondria to the membrane in the form of acetyl L- carnitine, and then carries out β-oxidation in the mitochondrial matrix, which becomes the energy needed by human body. Therefore, L-carnitine is a high-quality active substance for reducing weight. For a simple analogy, fatty acids are like fuel, mitochondria are like combustion furnaces, and then L-carnitine is a shovel. He shoveled fuel into a combustion furnace to burn it to get energy.
Supplementing L-carnitine has many important functions: reducing fat and losing weight; Help the body burn fat during exercise and improve energy, endurance and sports performance during exercise; Remove excess lactic acid, improve the ability to do work and promote fatigue recovery; Enhance the ability of myocardial cells to oxidize fat and reduce the burden on the heart during high-intensity exercise; Slow down the aging process of people and so on.
L-carnitine was used earlier in the field of sports. 1982, the Italian team participating in the World Cup in Spain first widely used L-carnitine as a nutritional supplement. In this tournament, the Italian team's players were very energetic, coupled with perfect technical play, and the Italians finally won the championship. Since then, L-carnitine has been widely used in sports.
Now L-carnitine has been widely used as a common weight-loss tonic. L- carnitine was designated as "multifunctional nutrition" at the 1985 international nutrition conference. Switzerland, France, the United States and the World Health Organization (WHO) listed it as a statutory multi-purpose nutrient. 1993, the expert committee of the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) thinks that L-carnitine is "recognized as safe and nontoxic".
Studies have confirmed that the concentration of free carnitine in human muscle tissue is about 20% after high-intensity physical training, but it can be improved by supplementing exogenous L-carnitine. L-carnitine exists only in a small amount in daily diet, which can not meet the physiological needs of fasting, vegetarian, strenuous exercise, obese people and bodybuilders who train with a lot of exercise. Therefore, carnitine "deficiency" is also very common in these people. It is also necessary to supplement L-carnitine, because many people are in a state of deficiency or marginal deficiency, and their blood and tissue carnitine levels are low.
In the field of bodybuilding, many people have begun to pay attention to supplementing L-carnitine. Bodybuilding enthusiasts are mainly used to reduce fat, enhance endurance and resist fatigue. Under certain weight conditions, reducing fat means increasing lean body mass. L-carnitine is the main component of many slimming products and anti-fatigue products in the slimming and fat-reducing market. By using L-carnitine products, people who lose weight and fat find that its fat-reducing effect is stable and less rebound, so it is loved by young women.
L-carnitine is suitable for many uses related to heart health:
Prevent heart disease
To improve the cardiac function of patients with congestive heart disease.
Minimize the injury after a heart attack.
Relieve the pain of colic
Improve arrhythmia without affecting blood pressure
When high-density cholesterol or beneficial cholesterol increases, the levels of triglycerides and cholesterol in blood will decrease.
If you have other health conditions, your health consultant will recommend L- carnitine supplements as follows:
Aids, especially protective drugs to reduce the side effects of AIDS treatment.
drink excessively
Az Hamo's disease
anorexia
chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS)
diabetes
Depression syndrome
Epilepsy (children)
haemodialysis
Suppress (an organism's) immune response
Male infertility
L-L- carnitine is also recommended to lose weight.
food source
Red meat is the main food source of L-carnitine, and other animal foods include fish, poultry and dairy products. Fermented soybeans, wheat and avocados in Indonesia all contain this nutrient.
Other forms
As a supplement, L-carnitine is only recommended, including the following items:
L-L- carnitine (LC) is the most widely used and cheapest one, which has been proved to be effective by a lot of scientific research.
L- acetyl L- carnitine (LAC) has the best effect on Alzheimer's disease and brain functional degeneration.
L- propionyl L- carnitine (LPC) has the best effect on colic and other heart problems.
D-L- carnitine is often not used because it has been proved to have adverse side effects.
A certain L- L- carnitine product has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for medical use and can only be purchased through the prescription of your health consultant. Other forms of L-L- carnitine are sold as supplements to improve the serious shortage of L-L- carnitine.
Recommended dosage
The recommended dose of L-carnitine will be adjusted according to different health conditions. The following list is the most commonly used dosage:
Improve the metabolic level and muscle capacity of obesity: 500- 1 000 mg twice a day.
Heart disease: 600- 1, 200mg three times a day, or 750mg twice a day.
Patients receiving AIDS protection drugs: 6 grams a day.
Treatment of alcohol-related problems: 300mg, three times a day.
Treating male infertility: 300-1 000 mg, three times a day.
Matters needing attention
L-carnitine is not recommended for patients with liver or kidney diseases. If you plan to improve obesity metabolism and muscle capacity, it is generally recommended that you stop using it for one week after each month; If you take it in large quantities (5 grams a day for an adult, except for AIDS patients), you may have diarrhea.
Further research confirmed that it is safe to take L-carnitine for a long time.
