Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA). CLA is a naturally occurring fatty acid in a number of foods (CLA such as milk, cheese, beef, lamb, etc.) that exerts a positive effect on protein and fat metabolism by accelerating fat loss. An added benefit is that it is also a powerful antioxidant. CLA may slow the loss of muscle tissue in catabolic conditions by lowering levels of anti-catabolic hormones within the body.

L-Carnitine. L-carnitine burns fat, boost energy levels and can increase muscle endurance. L-carnitine works by transferring long-chain fatty acids, such as triglycerides into mitochondria where the compound is oxidized to produce energy.

Pyruvate. Calcium Pyruvate (Pyruvate) is a naturally formed product of digestive processes, which also exists in many different foods such as red apples, and cheese.Pyruvate (like L-carnitine) also enhances energy, but in a different way. Pyruvate enhances the transport of glucose and protein into muscle cells and increases the amount of ATP available to the mitochondria.
