C3 Formula
C3 comes in powder form and contains just 15 calories per serving, with no sugar. A single scoop of C3 gives you 5 grams of collagen, 2.5 grams of a CLA matrix, and 2 grams of carnitine. Here™s a closer look at the contents of C3.
Hydrolyzed Collagen Peptide Types 1 & 3
Each 12-gram serving of C3 includes 5000mg of hydrolyzed collagen, which is also often called collagen peptide.
Collagen is a well-known ingredient in health and skincare products, as it promotes healthier skin, hair, and nails. However, it is also beneficial for alleviating joint pain and improving bone health. It may help reduce discomfort caused by osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, or collagen damage.
Collagen production declines with age. After the age of 40, collagen production may decrease by about 1% per year. Taking C3 ensures an ample supply of collagen to help fight the signs of aging on the skin, improve joint health, and promote faster wound healing.
Yet another benefit of collagen is body composition. Research has found that collagen peptides may help reduce body fat, especially when combined with strength training or resistance training.
CLA Matrix
The CLA matrix provides 2500mg of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) from the following blend of high-quality ingredients:
- Safflower oil powder
- Avocado oil powder
- Coconut oil powder
CLA is a fatty acid that most people get from dairy and meat. However, many plant oils offer a healthier source for this beneficial compound. The safflower oil, avocado oil, and coconut oil included in the C3 formula ensure that you get high-quality CLA.
Research has shown that CLA may promote fat loss by stimulating the breakdown of fats and inhibiting fat production. It may also lower your risk of heart disease and promote a healthier metabolism.
Carnitine
The C3 formula includes 2000mg of carnitine. It is a chemical made in the body that helps turn fat into energy. Supplying your body with more carnitines may allow you to shed more fat, which can also have a positive impact on your heart health.
Carnitine may also improve your cholesterol levels and decrease your risk of heart disease. It is known to help improve triglyceride levels, which can counter high levels of bad cholesterol.
Along with greater fat loss and heart health, carnitine can give you a significant boost in the gym. It is a common ingredient for getting better muscle gains and shortening your recovery time after a difficult workout.
