Lipo-C
THE LIPID MOBILIZER
Lipotropic Compound Injections
Lipo-C is an injection blend of methionine, inositol, choline, L-carnitine, arginine and B-vitamins that work together to help your body metabolize fat. It supports your liver's ability to process fats, shuttles fatty acids into your cells' energy factories (mitochondria), and can give your metabolism a noticeable boost. Popular at weight loss clinics as a complement to diet and exercise.
