Carnipure supplementation decreases hypoxic stress.A new study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research demonstrates that supplementation with Carnipure, manufactured by Lonza, induces an increase in muscle oxygen consumption, providing a potential mechanism for reduced hypoxic hypoxic a state of hypoxia. hypoxic cell sensitizers compounds that selectively sensitize hypoxic tumor cells to the effects of radiation. stress following resistance exercise. Previous research from the University of Connecticut The University of Connecticut is the State of Connecticut's land-grant university. It was founded in 1881 and serves more than 27,000 students on its six campuses, including more than 9,000 graduate students in multiple programs. UConn's main campus is in Storrs, Connecticut. has shown that supplementation with Carnipure, a very stable salt form of L-carnitine, beneficially affects markers of oxidative stress oxidative stress, n an imbalance of the prooxidant antioxidant ratio in which too few antioxidants are produced or ingested or too many oxidizing agents are produced. following resistance exercise. However, the mechanism for this response remained unclear. In this recent Lonza-sponsored study, changes were found in tissue oxygenation oxygenation /ox·y·gen·a·tion/ (ok?si-je-na´shun) 1. the act or process of adding oxygen. 2. the result of having oxygen added. response of the thigh muscle in resistance trained athletes during the recovery periods following squat exercises. This led to the conclusion that the Carnipure-supplemented group had higher muscle oxygen consumption than the placebo group. This research is supported by another study actually published at the same time by an Indian research group led by Arkadeb Dutta in Experimental Physiology. In this study, rats were exposed to hypoxia-induced oxidative stress and supplementation with L-carnitine was found to reduce oxidative ox·i·da·tive adj.
