BOOST YOUR MITOCHONDRIAL ENERGY WITH MITO-PRO™

Mito-Pro is a combination of two important, energy enhancing and protective agents, Acetyl-L-Carnitine and R-lipoic acid. In addition, each capsule also contains the supporting methylation agents vitamin B1, pantothenic acid and biotin.

Mito-Pro enhances the productive qualities of mitochondria, the organelles found inside every cell, and whose principle role is to produce Adenosine triphosphate, (ATP). This substance is present in all living cells and provides the energy required for many metabolic processes.

Over time, these power furnaces are subject to damage, and their efficiency declines as we age. However, it is possible to help nurture mitochondrial energy production and support their defences against decline. This is where Mito-Pro, with its combination of natural ingredients, can help.

These include:- R-lipoic acid

R-lipoic acid is an important antioxidant, and a necessary component for optimal functioning of the metabolism. It is one of the vital nutrients required for energy production, through the Krebs cycle, where it can enhance immunity and protect various parts of the body (especially nerves) from oxidative stress.

The body does make small amounts of this antioxidant, but the majority is derived from diet. Foods rich in R-lipoic acid are, animal liver, yeasts and spinach, but huge quantities would need to be consumed for it to be equivalent to the amount found in each capsule of Mito-Pro. This is why lipoic acid supplementation is advised by most nutritionists.

Lipoic acid is also known to lower glucose levels and improve conditions of insulin sensitivity (e.g. syndrome X).

Acetyl-L-Carnitine

Acetyl-L-Carnitine is responsible for directing fatty acids into the mitochondria, thereby enabling efficient production of ATP. This ensures that dietary fats are converted into energy and muscle.

Animal research studies have shown that when Acetyl-L-Carnitine is administered, the heart cell energy functions of old animals are returned to the metabolic functional abilities of younger animals. This means that it may be potentially useful for treating congestive heart failure in humans.

A hypothesis also exists that healthy levels of Acetyl-L-Carnitine may not only protect against certain kinds of neuropathy, (particularly those associated with diabetes), but that it may reduce the amount of sleep needed, especially for those who are sleeping in excess of 8 hours.

Synergy

In short, ALC and R-lipoic acid work synergistically. Together, they support and protect the energy producing mitochondria, leading to a number of real benefits. These include improvements in brain, heart and insulin function, as well as overall energy enhancement, which by itself can induce feelings of well being.

Dosage:

Each capsule of Mito-Pro contains a potent 300mg of Acetyl-L-Carnitine and 30mg of R-lipoic acid. One to three capsules, twice daily is recommended.

Note: R-lipoic acid can lower blood sugar levels. Diabetics, especially those using insulin (i.e. type-I) are advised to take advice from your healthcare provider to adjust doses as may be necessary.
