GPLC

by Jarrow Formulas


GPLC, formally know as "Ester Carnitine," is a propionyl ester of carnitine (PLC) that includes an additional glycine component. Compared with other forms of carnitine, PLC exhibits a special affinity for muscle tissues, such as the heart. GPLC is a powerful scavenger against superoxide radicals and it protects against lipid peroxidation. It assists energy production by facilitating the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria and, likewise, the removal of waste substances. GPLC contributes to muscle function by compensating for reduced oxygen availability during exercise and it provides powerful support for peripheral arterial blood flow. Under reduced oxygen conditions, GPLC also promotes proper carbohydrate metabolism and reduces the buildup of lactic acid.


One capsule contains: GPLC 758 mg, consisting of 500 mg PLC and 174 mg Glycine.

Other ingredients: Cellulose, magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide. Capsule consists of gelatin. Store in cool dry place. Do not refrigerate.


Suggested use: Take 2-4 capsules per day on an empty stomach or as directed by your qualified health consultant.
