Lipotropic Nutrients are compounds that promote the flow of fat and bile to and from the liver by producing a “decongesting” effect on the liver and promote improved liver function and fat metabolism. Lipotropic substances decrease the deposit or speed up the removal of fat within the liver.
- Methionine (12.4 mg) is an essential amino acid that the body needs, but does not create itself so it must be obtained through diet. It has antioxidant properties and can therefore protect the body from toxic substances and free radicals. Methionine also reduces the level of histamine in the blood, which reduces allergy symptoms. In addition, it is important for the regulation of the acid-base balance and contributes to the detoxification of heavy metals. As methionine makes urine more acidic, it can be used effectively to prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs). Aids in the treatment of depression and Parkinson’s disease because it has a role in many of the metabolic processes in the brain and encourages the production of the mood-lifting neurotransmitter serotonin.
- Inositol – B8 (25 mg) aids in the metabolism of fats and helps reduce blood cholesterol. Inositol participates in the action of serotonin, a neurotransmitter known to control mood and appetite.
- Choline (25 mg) is considered one of the B-complex vitamins as well as a lipotropic nutrient. It is present in the body of all living cells and functions with inositol as a basic constituent of lecithin. Choline appears to be associated with the utilization of fats and cholesterol in the body. It prevents fats from accumulating in the liver and facilitates the movements of fats into the cells and is essential for the health of the liver and the kidneys.
B Vitamins
- Vitamin B1 (50 mg) plays an essential role in converting carbohydrates to ATP for energy and promotes the health of the digestive tract, nervous system, skin, hair, eyes, mouth, and liver.
- Vitamin B2 (5000 mcg) plays a significant role in the production of energy and serves as an antioxidant, which slows the pace of aging. Maintains proper functioning of adrenal glands, which prevents weight gain around the waist.
- Vitamin B12 – Methylcobalamin (1000 mcg) is needed for normal fatty acid and DNA synthesis. It is essential for maintaining the integrity of the nervous system and the synthesis of molecules involved in the production of energy. Vitamin B12 deficiency can result in fatigue, cognitive impairment, neuropathies, and sleep disorders.
L-Carnitine (125 mg) accelerates the rate of ketone production for an appetite suppressing effect. Training benefits: improved muscle building potential, increased strength and endurance, improved bone strength, reduced risk of overtraining, improved mental function, improved fat metabolism, increased muscle mass, reduced recovery times, and improved energy levels.
The Aspen Lipo ULTRA+ is recommended for weekly doses and works most effectively when received after 4 weeks of Aspen Pure B12+Aspen Lipo Extreme.
