METHIONINE
This important amino acid helps block fat storage and reverse weight gain through its various roles in the body.
- Methionine supplement has a detoxifying effect on the body due to its sulfur component which helps to cleanse the liver and remove toxins efficiently.
- L-Methionine is an essential amino acid that acts as an antioxidant promoter. The body is able to convert methionine to cysteine which acts as a precursor to the detoxifying antioxidant L-Glutathione.
- Methionine stimulates the body to secrete the hormone somatotropin, an important fat-burning hormone, making methionine an important amino acid in one’s weight loss journey.
- Methionine is also the primary methyl donor in the body through S- adenosyl methionine via the transmethylation pathway, which is involved in the synthesis of several key metabolites including creatine and phosphatidylcholine.
- Creatine is a substance that is found naturally in muscle cells. It improves muscle development at the expense of fat and helps muscles produce energy during heavy lifting or high-intensity exercise.
- Phosphatidylcholine helps prevent the accumulation of fat in the liver. It may also promote lipolysis or the breakdown of fats in the body.
- These can help to increase your metabolic rate and aid in weight loss efforts.
- Methionine supplement also aids in the process of making new cells, which is important news for any athletes out there to return them to premiere performance shape.
- Methionine supplement has anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties to help muscles recover from damage after a rigorous training session.
INOSITOL
There is evidence to suggest inositol can correct many metabolic disorders that contribute to the development of high blood pressure, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome.
A 2016 pilot study published in the International Journal of Endocrinology reported that people with type 2 diabetes given myo-inositol and d-chiro-inositol daily along with their anti-diabetes drugs had a significant drop in their fasting blood glucose (192.6 mg/dL down to 160.9 mg/dL) and A1C (8.6% down to 7.7%) after three months.
Another small study published in the journal Menopause suggested that myo-inositol may aid in the treatment of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women. According to the research, women assigned to six months of myo-inositol supplements experienced significantly greater improvements in blood pressure and cholesterol levels than women provided a placebo.
When treated with myo-inositol, women with metabolic syndrome experienced an 11% drop in diastolic blood pressure, a 20% drop in triglycerides, and a 22% increase in “good” high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.
All of these values translate to an improvement of metabolic syndrome as well as a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease.
CHOLINE
Choline plays an important role in controlling fat and cholesterol buildup in the body. It has even been suggested that choline helps the body burn fat, which may result in easier weight loss and better metabolic health.
“Without an adequate supply of choline for phosphatidylcholine synthesis, triacylglycerides will accumulate, which leads to fatty liver condition,” according to the National Institutes of Health.
Furthermore, there is credible evidence that sub-optimal choline levels in humans are associated with liver and muscular damage.
“The importance of choline in the diet extends into adulthood and old age. In a study of healthy adult subjects deprived of dietary choline, 77% of the men and 80% of the postmenopausal women developed signs of subclinical organ dysfunction (fatty liver or muscle damage),” according to this report from the NIH.
Basically, a choline deficiency can cause an abnormal deposition of fat in the liver, which may result in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
