L-Carnitine (available in tablets and liquid) is a naturally occurring amino acid required for the oxidation and transport of fatty acids. Found mostly in the heart,skeletal muscle and brain, L-Carnitine is synthesized in the body, primarily in the liver and kidneys, from essential amino acids obtained through the diet. Population studies have shown that many vegetarians are unable to meet optimal carnitine requirements. Improved lipid transport may in turn facilitate weight management,increase exercise performance and balance cholesterol levels. L-Carnitine supplementation has also been shown to decrease muscle fatigue by preserving muscle glycogen through the preferential use of fat as energy. L-Carnitine may produce great results for decreasing weight and increasing exercise performance.
