Carnipure & Healthy Lifestyle Found to Effect Weight Management

A new study confirmed the role of Carnipure supplementation combined with healthy lifestyle education on the success of weight management programs. The primary objective of this pilot, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial was to examine the effect of Carnipure tartrate providing a low dose of L-carnitine on weight management and energy metabolism-related parameters in overweight but healthy human subjects. Data are published in the February issue of Food and Nutrition Sciences (Vol 4, No 2).

During the four-week study, 24 overweight adults were split into four groups: group A received a daily Carnipure supplement (500 mg L-carnitine), group B received the Carnipure supplement combined with motivation training, group C received placebo and group D placebo plus motivation training. Motivation training included a 30-minute face-to-face session with the study investigator, as well as a 15-minute session two weeks into the study, in which subjects received detailed information about the metabolic function of L-carnitine as well as the impact of lifestyle changes with regard to metabolic diseases. They were also instructed to increase their daily activity, use a step counter, reduce calorie intake and use a food diary while monitoring their body weight on a daily basis.

Only subjects in group B, who received the combination of Carnipure and motivation training, showed a statistically significant reduction in body, while there were no significant changes in body weight in any of the other groups. In addition, group B also showed the largest decrease in blood triglyceride levels among all the groups.
