Beverly Int'l ENERGY RESERVE - 60 Tabs

L-L-Carnitine basically serves two extremely important functions as far as we\'re concerned as bodybuilders, burning fat and the metabolism of branched chain amino acids (BCAA\'s). 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 BCAA\'s are the major amino acid constituents of your muscles. An in-crease 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 in-creases the utilization of fats for energy, sparing glycogen and amino acids. In essence, L-Carnitine shifts your fuel source utilization toward fats, leaving your amino acids and glycogen free to build muscle.
