Product 5/5
Key Benefits:
Recommended Dosage:
One teaspoon ( 5 cc. ) taken orally per day as a nutritional vitamin supplement. Take this amount twice per day (ideal if taken between meals, once mid-morning and once mid-afternoon) for optimum effects in weight loss when concurrently taking Diet Therapy®.
Intended Uses:
L-Carnitine is an amino acid manufactured by the body from the amino acids tyrosine and methionine. L-Carnitine (also known as vitamin BT) is the essential cofactor needed for fatty acid metabolism and helps control weight gain, prevent heart disease, and improve stamina. Consumption increases energy levels and increases the antioxidant ability of vitamins C and E. L-Carnitine functions in the breakdown of fat when taken in combination with vitamins B1 and B6. Continued use helps prevent fatty acid buildup in the body.
The B vitamins are essential vitamins needed for proper functioning of the bodily metabolic processes. They work together to breakdown caloric nutrients (carbohydrates, protein, and fat) for energy. Vitamin B1 is good for steadying nerves and strengthening the heart. Vitamin B6 strengthens the immune system and the heart.
Along the line of reducing cholesterol, we would like to point out that studies have been done that shows the amino acid L-carnitine is beneficial to the heart by increasing energy supply to heart muscle, lowers triglycerides, raises HDL cholesterol, reduces arrhythmias, prevents cardiotoxicity from taking Adriamycin, and that the benefits are dose dependent.
Our Unique Formulation:
Combining some the most needed B vitamins with L-carnitine into an easy to take sugar-free liquid enables our exclusive formulation Liqui Carnitine™ to be used for supplementation by all health conscious individuals. The formula is especially good for use in exercise and physical fitness and also for those concerned with fatty weight loss and regain. Consumption provides the diet with two of the major B vitamins as well as with the multiple usefulness of the amino acid L-carnitine.
This formula was developed to maximize weight loss effects nutritionally by being consumed along with Diet Therapy® tablets. However, all of the healthy effects are still available by taking Liqui Carnitine™ alone (without the need to lose weight afforded by taking Diet Therapy® tablets) or with other products such as Muscle Therapy™.

Recently it was shown that garlic is not effective in reducing cholesterol (see the news article Garlic Doesn't Lower Cholesterol). In addition, cholesterol is not exactly as easily understood as physicians and drug companies advertise (read about it on our Diet & Health Myths and Fallacies page).
