Solgar® Lipotropic Factors is a specialized combination formula of Choline, Inositol and L-Methionine. The transfer of fat, cholesterol and triglycerides from the liver to the cells of the body also requires choline and acts to maintain the liver without accumulation of fat.Choline also contributes:* to normal homocysteine metabolism* to normal lipid metabolism* to maintaining normal function in the liver.Inositol, also known as vitamin B8, is a water soluble element and creates a building block for each cell membrane in the body. It works similar to choline. Inositol, although technically not a basic vitamin B as it can be created in the body, remains a very basic nutrient. Amino acids are the foundations of protein and are needed for many internal functions of the body. They are classified as ‘basic’ or ‘non-basic’, with essential amino acids not being produced by the body and needing to be supplemented by diet in order to maintain overall good health. Amino acids are also used by the body to create hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters, antibodies and nutrient carriers.
