ThermoCarnitine 3000

Synthesized from L-Lysine and L-Methionine, L-Carnitine is the amino acid responsible for energy metabolism in all cells of the body: it transports fatty acids into the cell to be used as an energy source.

Taking it before exercise helps significantly increase oxygen uptake and minimize the formation of lactic acid, which reduces fatigue and muscle damage.

ThermoCarnitine 3000, by Vitobest®, is made from L-Carnitine tartrate (Carnipure™), the most stable and fastest-absorbing form of carnitine; which helps improve physical performance and reduce adipose tissue.

To enhance the effect of L-Carnitine our formula also contains:

• Guarana: has a synergistic effect with L-Carnitine. Improving the use of fats as an energy source, as well as reducing fatigue and improving attention in prolonged efforts¹.
• L-Taurine: improves the assimilation of L-Carnitine and facilitates the transmission of nerve impulses, which helps reduce fatigue and muscle damage during exercise.
• Choline: helps increase the absorption of L-Carnitine up to 75%, and improve fat metabolism².
• Caffeine: contributes to improving the use of fats as an energy source in prolonged efforts³.
• β-Alanine: helps control muscle pH, improving muscle contraction and reducing fatigue.
• Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid): enhances the use of fats as an energy source (acts on the formation of acetyl coenzyme A)⁴.

Product statements (claims):

• Pantothenic acid contributes to normal energy metabolism.
• Pantothenic acid helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
• Pantothenic acid contributes to normal intellectual performance.
• Pantothenic acid contributes to the normal synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, vitamin D, and some neurotransmitters.
