Nutrition and enzymes practices!

[Kcm3000]

so in class we have been studying enzymes and the how they effect metabolism. I figured since the school book sucked, and i was interested in learning i would go to borders and pick up a few things and read over the vacation. anyways. the 2 books i picked up were everythign you need to knoww about ENZYMES ( a simple guide to using enzymes to treat everything from digestive problems and allergies to migranes and arthritis ) and IRONMANS ULTIMATE GUIDE TO BODYBUILDING NUTRITION

but i have a couple questions for you guys, mainly on the supplementation part of ironmans book. has anyone ever takin Acetyl-L-Carnitine as a supplement mix or Pyruvate as a supplement. If so how did that work out for you. bc the scientific evidence in the book stated that both substances enhance musclebuilding capapbilities.

also i know there are other threads out there. but what would some one use for the ketosis diet, in phase 1, there are 5 days of high fat and high protein then phase 2 of 2 days carb loading then back to phase 1. but what would you eat besides nuts fish peanut butter chicken ribs pork etc. do you add salads? idk some suggestions would be cool

thanks

Pyruvate makes a big diffreance on dnp at 6g
the studies were done with 30+g IV as the stomach just can't handle it.
It is the last part of the krebs cycle if memory serves so maybe a good prevention hangover supplement with water as you get a hangover becasue you get dehydrated so fast the krebds cycle does not have enough water to do it's job.

leafy greens are ok on a ketogenic diet, as much as 10 grams carb content per meal roughtly speaking (which is a lot!) or every 3 hours. Not sure I agree with you about the phase one and phase 2 that sounds like some modified ketogenic diet rather than a scientific one.

I understand L'carnitine is better used IM like on synthetine here is what is on their site, but I am sure one of there representatives here can go into more detail as to exactly why.


Synthetine™ is a high quality product containing L-carnitine. L-carnitine is a substance similar to amino acids and vitamins and it is made in the body in small amounts from amino acids such as lysine and methionine plus other vitamins like C, B.

Synthetine™ has many benefits for the body, most importantly with the fat loss process, it is responsible for the transport of fatty acids to the mitochondria, where they are burned for energy, as such enabling the athlete to lose bodyfat.

The amount of body fat the athlete loses is directly related to the amount of fatty acids transported to the mitochondria.

As such, an athlete will only burn as much bodyfat as is being transported by the Synthetine, irrespective of the amount of fat loss aids that person might be taking.

Additional benefits for Synthetine™ : Recent research has found that supplementing with l-carnitine, increases the number of androgen receptors in the muscles - yes the same receptors that use testosterone and are responsible for your muscle growth .

What does that mean?

This means that not only Synthetine™ is a great tool for fat burning, it may also improve the lean body mass, by increasing the amount of receptors which increases the opportunity for size gains.

This is especially useful for bodybuilders with elevated testosterone levels, whether naturally or by certain supplements/compounds.
Either way, the user can experience better muscle gains with Synthetine.

And yet another benefit for Synthetine™ is that it is shown to improve sexual ability, particularly the erection quality, which may not be your reason for using it, but its an additional benefit that you cannot complain about.

To summarize :
Synthetine™ is an indispensable tool in the fat loss process - this is the main use for it. However, whether your goal is to lose fat, compete, add muscles , or even improve your sex life, Synthetine™ can help you.

Synthetine™ comes in a 100ml bottle, each ml contains 200mg of L-carnitine.

Synthetine™ - the indespensible tool in the war against fat!

best wishes

ALC has been used or researched for Alzheimers disease. ALC is an acetylated form of L-carnitine. ALC has been claimed to be superior to normal L-carnitine in terms of bioavailability. However, at least one study has suggested that the acetylated form may have a lower oral bioavailability.

As of the diet your talking about its almost along the lines of Bodyopus, Dan Duchaines book. But there you went with no carbs for 5 days then carbed up for 2 days.
