Lcarnitine has very important physiological roles, including the transfer of long-chain fatty acids from the cytoplasm to the mitochondria in liver cells, and as a result, it increases the beta-oxidation of these fatty acids
Cardiovascular outcome trials that are planned or underway will determine whether such robust cardiometabolic potency through complementary receptor targeting translates into incremental cardiovascular protection, ideally with improved drug tolerability
Weight Management As described above, berberine has shown some benefits in supporting weight management through the mechanisms described above, especially through its effects on increasing GLP-1 secretion and thereby improving insulin sensitivity and promoting feelings of satiety
