Are there any interesting developments in sports nutrition?
AA: Emerging studies show that combining Vitargo and carnitine has amazing effects. When you take carnitine supplements, blood carnitine rises, but little of it is absorbed into muscle. When a sufficient amount of carnitine is loaded into muscle, however, carb burning is replaced by pronounced fat oxidation. The muscle uses 40 percent less lactate at rest, and carbs are directly shunted into muscle glycogen rather than stored as fat. It turns out that your body needs a lot of insulin for carnitine entry into muscle, and Vitargo is ideal for that purpose. I predict some interesting benefits will emerge when Vitargo is combined with carnitine. JB: That reminds me of a study I read that discovered that an enzyme that works with carnitine in shuttling fat into cell mitochondria was upgraded in rats. Those special rats could eat anything they wanted yet never gained any fat whatsoever. I look forward to when something like that is produced in humans. Then I can put pizza back into my diet.
