Mitotropin
Mitochondria-Trippin’
Mitotropin, a weight-loss product by Gaspari Nutrition, is a product intended to “Turn the Mitochondrial System into OVERDRIVE” as well as to increase your resting metabolic rate so that you burn more calories. This product is specifically designed for the body-building community and aims to cut the extra bit of fat off to give body-builders that extra-shredded look.
Mitotropin Science
The Mitotropin formula is quite a complex one, though considering all of the ingredients are packed into only 783 mg, it is very difficult to tell how effective any given component will be. The idea behind mitochondrial system is that 3,3′ diidothyronine increases the expression of the carnitine palmitoyl transferase-1 (CPT-1) enzyme and accelerates your overall metabolism. The full ingredient list is as follows.

Mitotropin Effectiveness/Dollar
First of all, this product is mainly designed to scrape the last remaining pounds of fat off of a body-builder, but may not be the best option for someone looking to drop their first 15-30 lbs. It is a generally good formula and includes a number of mood enhancers and other vitamins that may improve general health. For $60, it is not the cheapest “cutting” product I’ve seen, but it generally seems to be worth it for the body-builders who are serious about getting shredded.
