REPP Sports L-Carnitine 2K Thermo Ingredient Profile
Metabolic Matrix - 2000mg
(L-Carnitine Matrix (L-Carnitine, Acetyl L-Carnitine, L-Carnitine L-Tartrate, L-Carnitine Fumarate), Taurine)
This powerful complex combines 4 types of carnitine with taurine. While every form of carnitine helps transport stored fat to be burned as cellular energy, each has unique benefits.
L-Carnitine
L-Carnitine is typically called an amino acid. Technically, however, L-Carnitine is a molecule that comes from the amino acids methionine and lysine. It’s produced naturally in the liver and kidneys. L-Carnitine, in all its forms, is responsible for the transport of fatty acids to the mitochondria. The mitochondria are where it’s burned for energy by the body. It’s this conversion into energy that creates ATP. This is, of course, the energy source your muscles use when you’re working out. (1)
L-Carnitine L-Tartrate (LCLT)
This form of Carnitine absorbs faster than other forms. Besides transporting stored fat to be used for energy, it supports muscle growth and recovery. How does LCLT impact muscle growth? By increasing the androgen receptor allowing testosterone to work more efficiently in the body. (2, 3)
Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALCAR)
This form of Carnitine has several benefits, including cognitive benefits. For example, ALCAR elevates mood and improves learning ability. (4)
L-Carnitine Fumarate
This is a type of Carnitine that’s bound to fumaric acid. L-Fumarate occurs naturally in the body as a Citric Acid cycle intermediate. This cycle plays a role in ATP energy production. This form of Carnitine, like all others, helps the body burn fat by using stored fat as energy.
Taurine
This is a type of amino acid that has a number of functions. Primarily, it supports cognitive function and improves hydration.
Thermogenesis Blend - 100mg
(Choline Bitartrate, GBB(Gamma-Butyrobetaine Ethyl Ester HCL), Citrus Aurantium Extract, Grains Of Paradise Extract, Black Pepper Extract (95% Piperine))
Choline
This is a well-known focus enhancer. It’s often included in thermogenic formulas to optimize cognitive function in times of calorie restriction.
GBB
The standout ingredient in this Blend is GBB, also known as “Super Carnitine''. GBB is a molecule that your body converts into L-Carnitine while it’s producing its own carnitine. Studies have shown that plasma concentrations of carnitine double after taking GBB. That’s how it got the nickname “Super Carnitine”. GBB is also an effective thermogenic. (6, 7)
Citrus Aurantium
Also known as Bitter Orange, this herbal extract provides synephrine, which is a mild stimulant and thermogenic. (8)
Grains of Paradise
This is an African herb that comes from the Ginger family. The active ingredients in Grains of Paradise include the following: 6-paradol, 6-gingerol, and 6-shogaol. Clinical studies suggest that Grains of Paradise stimulates the effects of B.A.T. (Brown Adipose Tissue). This is a type of fat that helps the body maintain core temperature when exposed to cold. It does through thermogenesis activation. Also, B.A.T. burns a greater number of calories than regular fat.
