Lipo-C (Lipotropic Compound Injections)

Lipo-C combines L-Carnitine, Arginine, Methionine, Inositol, Choline, and B vitamins to support fat metabolism, energy production, liver health, and weight loss with improved bioavailability via injection.

- Support fat metabolism and weight loss

- Improve liver function and detoxification

Mechanism of Action

How this peptide works in the body

Fat Metabolism & Energy Production:

L-Carnitine (200 mg): Facilitates the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondrial matrix via carnitine palmitoyltransferase I (CPT1) on the outer mitochondrial membrane. Once inside, fatty acids undergo beta-oxidation, generating acetyl-CoA for ATP production through the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. This process enhances energy availability, particularly for skeletal muscle and cardiac function.

Methionine (25 mg): Functions as a methyl donor in the S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) pathway, aiding in lipid metabolism by enhancing phosphatidylcholine synthesis. It also supports the detoxification of homocysteine via the methionine-homocysteine cycle, reducing oxidative stress and protecting hepatic cells from fat accumulation.

Liver Detoxification & Lipid Regulation:

Inositol (50 mg): Plays a key role in lipid transport by regulating phosphatidylinositol signaling, which influences fat metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and hepatic lipid processing. It enhances the function of insulin receptors, improving glucose uptake while reducing fat storage, making it particularly beneficial for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and metabolic disorders.

Choline (50 mg): A precursor to phosphatidylcholine, a major component of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) particles, choline facilitates the export of triglycerides from the liver, preventing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Additionally, it is involved in the synthesis of acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter for cognitive function and muscle control.

Circulation & Nitric Oxide Production:

Arginine (20 mg): Functions as a substrate for nitric oxide synthase (NOS), converting into nitric oxide (NO), which relaxes vascular smooth muscle via the cyclic GMP (cGMP) pathway. This vasodilation enhances blood flow, oxygen delivery, and nutrient transport to muscles, reducing exercise-induced fatigue and improving endurance and recovery.

Cellular Metabolism & Vitamin Support:

B5 (Dexpanthenol, 25 mg): Acts as a precursor to coenzyme A (CoA), a critical molecule in the TCA cycle, facilitating fatty acid oxidation and acetyl-CoA metabolism. It also plays a role in skin and hair health by supporting keratinocyte proliferation and repair.

B6 (Pyridoxine, 25 mg): Functions as a coenzyme in amino acid metabolism, particularly in the conversion of glutamate to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter that regulates neuronal excitability. It also modulates inflammatory cytokines by inhibiting nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling.

B12 (Methylcobalamin, 400 mcg): Supports red blood cell formation by promoting erythropoiesis in the bone marrow. It is also essential for myelin sheath maintenance and DNA synthesis, preventing neurodegenerative disorders and anemia by facilitating methionine and folate metabolism.
