Lipo-C
Lipotropic injection blend — MIC + B12 + L-Carnitine for accelerated fat metabolism and energy.
1 mL 3× per week
Key Benefits
MIC complex prevents fat accumulation in the liver and enhances VLDL export
L-Carnitine transports fatty acids into mitochondria for energy production
Inositol improves insulin signaling and glucose metabolism
essential for GLP-1 users experiencing fatigue from caloric restriction

How long will one vial last?
Based on standard research protocols, here's exactly what to expect from a single 10mL vial vial — and when to plan your next order.

Scientific Background
Mechanism of Action
Lipo-C works through complementary lipotropic mechanisms: Methionine is an essential amino acid that prevents fat accumulation in the liver by supporting phosphatidylcholine synthesis. Inositol regulates insulin signaling and fat metabolism via the PI3K pathway. Choline is a precursor to phosphatidylcholine, essential for VLDL assembly and hepatic fat export. L-Carnitine transports long-chain fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membrane for beta-oxidation. Vitamin B12 supports energy metabolism and red blood cell production.
Clinical Context
Lipo-C injections are a staple of medical weight loss clinics, commonly prescribed alongside GLP-1 agonists (Semaglutide, Tirzepatide) to enhance fat metabolism and prevent the fatigue and B12 deficiency that can accompany caloric restriction. The combination of hepatic fat mobilization (MIC) and mitochondrial fat oxidation (L-Carnitine) creates a comprehensive metabolic support protocol.
Research Highlights
- MIC injections shown to enhance hepatic fat export and reduce liver fat accumulation in clinical studies
- L-Carnitine supplementation demonstrates 10–15% improvement in fat oxidation during exercise
- Inositol shown to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce fasting glucose in PCOS research
- B12 deficiency is common in GLP-1 users — Lipo-C provides essential repletion
Storage & Reconstitution
Inject IM into gluteal muscle or deltoid. Commonly paired with GLP-1 protocols. Can be administered on same day as GLP-1 injection.
