• Enhance Weight Loss
• Increase ATP or Energy Synthesis
• Natural Caffeine-Free Energy

International Protein Carni-Strip is another excellent formulation from International Protein, utilising some of the best ingredients in sports nutrition to provide you with an improved training and fat-stripping experience. With four different types of Carnitine, including tartrate, acetyl, orotate and fumerate, International Protein Carni-Strip has got your energy and fat burning needs covered. In fact, research shows that those who supplement with carnitine during a weight loss program lose an extra 1.3kg of body fat¹.

Carnitine is a dipeptide composed of methionine and lysine that we synthesise, with the important biological role of transporting long-chain fatty acids into the mitchondria to be utilised for Beta Oxidation (conversion to energy). This is quite a good trade, as we get to burn fat, and increase our energy reserves. To validate this further, clinical trials have been undertaken in chronic fatigue symdrome sufferers, indicating that this dipeptide can improve energy levels². This highlights this nutrients importance in supporting mitochondrial function, the energy-producing powerhouse of the cell. 

International Protein Carni-Strip contains a very specialised form of carnitine, called acetyl-l-carnitine (ALCAR). This form passes through the blood brain barrier, donating acetyl groups for the synthesis of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter linked to learning ability and memory³. Additionally, ALCAR is believed to be a nerve protectant, anti-depressive and antioxidant nutrient, indicating a range of benefits, not only for energy and fat metabolism, but also for supporting brain and nerve health⁴. 

International Protein Carni-Strip is perfect for use before exercise, or taken througout the day, especially first thing in the morning to kick-start the day on a high-note.
