MCT Oil and L-Carnitine

The Thermogenic Combination

 

Medium chain triglycerides, MCTs, are fatty acids that are more easily digested by the body than other fat. MCTs are naturally found in coconut oil, palm kernel oil. Chemical names of MCTS are as follows caproic acid, caprylic acid, capric acid, and lauric acid. Due to their shorter structure MCTs are more readily absorbed and metabolized by the body. They promote the body to metabolize fatty acids for fuel and are not as prone to storage like other fatty acids. Due to this great property, MCT oil is ideal for reducing body fat and producing a thermogenic effect for cutting during dieting prior to shows or for weight loss in general. MCT oil should be introduced slowly starting with as little as 1 tsp daily and can be used up to 1 tbsp three times daily.

 

For even better results, MCT can be combine with l-carnitine for a synergistic effect. L-carnitine is an amino acid that helps to transport long chain fatty acids to the mitochondria to be used as fuel via oxidation processes. So again, the MCT oil is promoting the body to used fatty acids for fuel and is not readily stored as fat. By adding L-carnitine to the formula you promote the body to transport stored fats in the form of long chain fatty acids to the mitochondria to be broken down for fuel. Acetyl-L-carnitine is a superior formulation to just L-carnitine because the acetyl group improves the ability of the molecule to penetrate through the the cellular and mitochondria walls/membranes. The liquid formulation has an onset 30 minutes faster than tablet or capsule formulation since it does not need to dissolve first to be in an absorbable form. Recommended dose is 1-2gms up to three times daily. Neither MCT oil or L-carnitine give any type of simulant effect and can be combine with other natural fat loss products.

Other Natural Weight Loss Products

 

Garcinia Cambogia - Naturally occurs in the Garcinia fruit rind. It has been shown to inhibit fat deposition and promote oxidation of fatty acids for fuel. Recommended dose 1000mg three times daily.

 

African Mango - This is a mango like fruit from Africa. It has been shown to inhibit adipocyte or fat cell genesis and differentiation. It also helps increase the hormone adiponectin which is involved in promoting fatty acid metabolism. Recommended dose 150mg twice daily.

 

Raspberry Ketones - Also helps to increase adiponectin to promote fatty acid metabolism. Adiponectin helps to mobilize fat stores to be burned as fuel. Recommended dose 100mg twice daily.

 

Green Coffee Extract - Active ingredient is chlorogenic acid which is destroyed during the roasting process. Therefore, look for supplements that are "green" or unroasted and standardized to at least 50% chlorogenic acid. Chlorogenic acids reduces glucose absorption, modulates glucose metabolism, and alters body fat distribution and storage. Recommended dose 600-800mg twice daily.

 

Psyllium - This is usually the best option for diabetics as it does not alter glucose metabolism. Psyllium absorbs fluids, sugars, and fats thus preventing/reducing absorption into the blood stream. In addition, it also acts as a bulk laxative to help with bowel health and regulation. Recommended dose 1 tablespoon up to three times daily. Separate from other medications etc that you need to be well absorbed. Best results with timing before meals.
