L-Carnitine with Chromium - 30 Tablets

Carnitine helps your body turn fat into energy. At the same time, it also assists in neutralizing the harmful effects of free radicals, which are particles in your body that can cause damage to cells. Your liver and kidneys manufacture carnitine, while it’s stored by the heart, brain, and skeletal muscles. Your body is generally able to produce sufficient amounts of carnitine, but it may sometimes need a little health. You may not have enough carnitine in your body if you have a heart condition like angina, or if you take medications that lead to lower levels of the substance. In other cases, your body makes enough of this substance but is unable to use it. Carnitine supplements—such as Metagenics’ L-Carnitine with Chromium— are used for a variety of reasons, including:

• Weight loss, since chromium helps your body burn fat
• Heart conditions (such as heart attacks and angina), when used in combination with conventional forms of treatment
• Diabetic neuropathy, a condition that occurs when you suffer nerve damage due to diabetes
• Kidney disease, since this illness often leads to low levels of carnitine

You can usually get enough carnitine from your diet if it includes red meat and dairy products. Other sources that contain this substance—albeit in smaller amounts—include poultry, peanut butter, wheat, and asparagus. However, some of those foods can be an acquired taste.

Chromium is a mineral that helps the insulin in your body regulate blood sugar levels. When you’re deficient in chromium, your blood sugar levels and cholesterol levels may be excessively high, raising your risk of developing heart disease or diabetes. Chromium supplements are often used to promote weight loss and heart health, or treat the symptoms of obesity and diabetes.

L-Carnitine with Chromium by Metagenics contains 250 mcg of carnitine and 50 mcg of chromium. The combination of these nutrients provides an efficient way for your body to metabolize fats. Each bottle contains 30 tablets, which should last you for about 15 days if you’re taking one tablet twice per day. You should take these tablets in between meals for the best results.
