Lipotropic Injections

Lipotropic injections are a great aid in boosting your energy, increasing your metabolism and suppressing your appetite. Alone they can help you lose weight but you will see the best results when you combine these injections with a healthy weight loss program.

Lipotropic injections are a safe and effective way to boost weight loss or maintain a healthy weight. Not only will they contribute to the success of your weight loss plan, they’ll also give you a boost in energy.

Like any injection, there is some discomfort during the injection but it is minimal.

No. While both can be used to aid in weight loss they are not the same. Lipotropic injections include a combination of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. HCG (or human chorionic gonadotropin) is the hormone women produce when they are pregnant.

Regardless of whether you are looking to just lose weight, build muscle or both, L-Carnitine should be a weapon in your supplement arsenal. Studies have been done on L-Carnitine since 1937. Below are just a few of the benefits of this amino acid.

• Fat loss
• Reduces fatigue
• Helps keep your body from storing fat plus increases your aerobic capacity to burn more calories
• Helps you build muscle
• Slows down the bone loss process
• Improves brain function

B12 Injections Miami’s Powerful New GAC Injections Promote Rapid Weight Loss and Increased Energy Levels Among Patients

Widely used as an effective weight loss supplement for some time now, GAC Injections are helping many dieters lessen sugar cravings and stick to low-carb dieting. Glutamine, arginine, and carnitine (GAC) are three combined amino acids that convert energy to glycogen rather than fat, which is easier to burn and expel from the body.  Available as a pharmacy-grade prescription by B12 Miami in injectable form, GAC injections are specifically formulated for rapid weight loss and enhanced athletic performance via the stimulation of the body’s metabolism through the transfer of fatty acids to the mitochondria.

B12 Injections Miami’s team of medical physicians have found GAC to be an important component in muscle repair, body sculpting, and immune system enhancement and are delighted to offer safe and supervised GAC injections to our patients. Patients using GAC injections can expect to enjoy:

• Increased growth hormone levels
• Prevention of muscle loss
• Faster muscle recovery
• Improved circulation
• Powerful fat burning properties
• Conversion of stored fat into energy
• Increased energy levels
• Higher metabolic rates
• Balanced hormones
• Improved mood
• Increased stamina

Below is a breakdown of each amino acid, and its role in fat loss:

• Glutamine is one of the body’s most abundant amino acids and is the building block for all essential proteins. It is most commonly used to boost the immune system to combat the effects of bodily distress. Glutamine also enhances exercise performance and expedites muscle recovery allowing its users to effectively burn more calories.
• Arginine is an amino acid that changes into nitric oxide. Nitric oxide is a neurotransmitter that improves circulation and blood flow. Due to arginine’s positive effects on blood circulation, workout performance and muscle recovery time have been shown to improve while taking arginine, leading to an increase in the rate of fat burning which is extremely effective for weight loss.
• L-Carnitine is a substance produced by the liver and kidneys which convert body fat into energy. Studies show that carnitine reduces body fat, increases muscle mass, improves stamina and strength and lessens fatigue, which may all contribute to weight loss. Its muscle building properties make it a favorite among weightlifters and bodybuilding professionals. Carnitine has also been used to boost energy during times of caloric deficit which can help to eliminate fatigue and irritability while dieting.

The amino acids that are injected into the body stimulate the liver into optimizing the process of metabolism. These injections boost the body’s metabolic power by providing a highly effective temporary increase of normal metabolic functions. As soon as the effect of these substances wears off, the body begins to gradually return to its normal metabolic rate. When administered in combination with a low-calorie diet and regular exercise, our lipotropic formulas can help your body to rid itself of fat, while simultaneously increasing your energy levels both via the fat released energy and the energy promoting properties of vitamin B-12. The formula used in the MIC Injection specially blends the following important ingredients:

Methionine – The “M” in MIC Injection, is an essential amino acid, which means that it is not synthesized in humans. This amino acid acts as a lipotropic agent which: assists in the breakdown of fats within the liver; helps to lower cholesterol thereby preventing excess fat buildup in the liver and throughout your body’s circulatory system; is helpful in preventing and relieving fatigue; and is useful in some cases of allergies by virtue of its ability to reduce histamine release.123

One of the sulfur-containing amino acids (along with cysteine and cystine), methionine is important (essential) to many bodily functions and must be directly consumed through supplementation or methionine-containing proteins. Foods which contain high levels of methionine include cheese, eggs, fish, meats, spinach, potatoes, Brazil nuts, sesame seeds, and select other plant seeds. However, by injecting methionine into your muscles you can rapidly achieve high concentrations which many researchers and physicians believe results in more effective mobilization and elimination of abnormal fatty deposits. Other reported benefits of methionine include improvement of: liver disease; skin tone and elasticity; nails; hair; and cardiovascular and muscular functions, through its role in the production of creatine. It has also been used to treat premature ejaculation, chronic depression, pancreatitis, Parkinson’s disease, and AIDS myelopathy. More specifically, clinical research has clearly demonstrated methionine’s ability to “…strongly improve the alcohol-induced histological changes in the liver. Triglyceride content of the liver was found to decrease in a dose-dependent manner with increasing methionine ingestion.4

Inositol – The “I” in MIC Injection, is a B-vitamin that promotes: the health of cell structures and nerve synapses; aids in the metabolism of fats; helps reduce blood cholesterol; and participates in the action of serotonin, a neurotransmitter known to control mood and appetite.567

Also known as myo-inositol, inositol is best described as a carbocyclic polyol, which forms the basis for many signaling and secondary messenger molecules. As such, it is involved in many biological processes, including the breakdown of fats, the reduction of serum cholesterol, serotonin activity modulation, gene expression, and insulin signal transduction. It is not considered a vitamin because your body is unable to synthesize it. However, it has been shown to be helpful for the treatment of depression, panic disorder, polycystic ovarian syndrome, and fatty liver. It also important for optimal brain function.89

Inositol deficiency may manifest as symptoms of constipation, high cholesterol, vision problems, and hair loss. Although it is naturally found in certain foods such as nuts, beans (especially red beans and kidney beans), grains, cantaloupe melons, and oranges, it is more effective in breaking down fat when given as an intramuscular injection.

Choline – The “C” in MIC Injection, is an essential nutrient that helps to support the liver in its processing and excretion of chemical waste products. Moreover, it is required for the transport and metabolism of fats and cholesterol, which is important for the healthy support of the endocrine, cardiovascular, and hepatic systems.

A few specific studies have clearly demonstrated:

• “Choline supplementation normalized cholesterol metabolism, which was sufficient to prevent nonalcoholic steatohepatitis development and improve liver function. Our data suggest that choline can promote liver health by maintaining cholesterol homeostasis.”10
• “Choline induces glucose and insulin intolerance in Pemt(-/-) mice through modulating plasma glucagon and its action in liver.”11
• Choline supplementation decreased the concentration of liver triacylglycerol during the first 4 wk after parturition. Results from this study suggest that hepatic fat export in periparturient dairy cows is improved by choline supplementation during the transition period and this may potentially decrease the risk for metabolic disorders in the periparturient dairy cow.”12
• Choline is also known to be involved in the synthesis of carnitine, cell membrane phospholipids, and the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It is a major source for methyl groups via its metabolite trimethylglycine (betaine) that participates in the S-adenosylmethionine synthesis pathways. Lastly, choline has also been shown to specifically aid with memory, and to support the maintenance of a healthy nervous system.1314 Food sources of choline include peanuts, soybeans, wheat, chicken, fish, beef, cauliflower, eggs, and lettuce.
