L-Carnitine
L-Carnitine is an important co-factor for energy production from fats.
Research indicates that L-Carnitine: *
- Transports fat from fat cells to mitochondria cells in muscles, in the heart, and other body tissues
- May support healthy weight maintenance
- May support healthy cardio function
- May support kidney health
- May support healthy sperm counts in men
- May support healthy thyroid function
- May support healthy energy levels
What is L-Carnitine and what does it do?
Technically, L-Carnitine is not an amino acid, but an amino acid-like compound. L-Carnitine helps the body produce energy by transporting fat from fat cells to the mitochondria of cells to be burned for energy. Not only can this energy be utilized by the muscles, but it is also used by the heart and other body tissues. Due to this, L-Carnitine is especially important to optimal cardiovascular health.*
Carnitine also facilitates the metabolism of carbohydrates and enhances the rate of oxidative phosphorylation.*
L-Carnitine works synergistically with CoQ10, an antioxidant and energy co-factor that is found in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
