gamma-butyrobetaine and Weight Gain

gamma-butyrobetaine has been researched along with Weight Gain in 2 studies

4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate : An amino-acid betaine gamma-aminobutyric acid zwitterion in which all of the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen are replaced by methyl groups.

Weight Gain: Increase in BODY WEIGHT over existing weight.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Betaine (BET) reduces diet-induced liver lipid accumulation, and may relieve obesity-related metabolic disturbances."3.79Betaine supplementation causes increase in carnitine metabolites in the muscle and liver of mice fed a high-fat diet as studied by nontargeted LC-MS metabolomics approach. ( Auriola, S; Hanhineva, K; Huotari, A; Keski-Rahkonen, P; Kolehmainen, M; Lehtonen, M; Mykkänen, H; Olli, K; Pekkinen, J; Poutanen, K; Tiihonen, K, 2013)
"Experimental vitamin C deficiency in guinea pigs is associated with low carnitine concentrations in blood and some tissues."1.29The ability of guinea pigs to synthesize carnitine at a normal rate from epsilon-N-trimethyllysine or gamma-butyrobetaine in vivo is not compromised by experimental vitamin C deficiency. ( Rebouche, CJ, 1995)
