A natural method for promoting fat, and weight loss while decreasing food cravings comprising administrating to an individual in need thereof L-carnitine, chromium, coenzyme Q10, creatine, lipoic acid, niacin, pyruvate, riboflavin, and thiamine. Pyruvate is a major promoter of the oxidation of dietary fuels like carbohydrates and fatty acids in the citric acid cycle. L-carnitine allow the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria were they can be degraded in the citric acid cycle. Lipoic acid is a major intracellular antioxidant, and component of key enzymes in the citric acid cycle. Niacin, riboflavin, and thiamine are key components of enzymes that lead to the breakdown of dietary fuel molecules such as fatty acids, amino acids, and carbohydrates that enter the citric acid cycle. The breakdown of these dietary fuels leads to the production of high energy hydrogen atoms. Coenzyme Q10 accepts these hydrogen atoms and utilizes them for cellular energy production. Chromium helps reduce food cravings by normalizing insulin levels. Creatine allows increased storage of cellular energy, and promotes lean muscle tissue. |
