CarniCote^® Microencapsulated L-carnitine
CarniCote^® is a free-flowing powder of L-carntine. Microencapsulation protects the hygroscopic L-carnitine from absorbing moisture.

Health Benefits
L-carnitine is involved in energy metabolism within the body's cells. L-carnitine facilitates the transport of fat cells into mitochondria, where they are turned into ADP and ATP, the type of energy that cells utilize. This activity inside the body gives L-carnitine the following attributes:

• Facilitates energy metabolism
• Improves exercise recovery time
• Supports cardiovascular health
• Plays a role in weight management

Free-Flowing Powder
L-carnitine base (pure L-carnitine) is a highly hygroscopic ingredient. In layman's terms, this means that L-carnitine absorbs moisture, even from the air, turning the solid crystals of L-carnitine into a gel within minutes. This hygroscopicity makes it difficult to work with L-carnitine base in dry applications such as tablets, two-piece hard-shell capsules and premix powders. CarniCote^® L-carnitine is microencapsulated with a protective layer blocking the L-carnitine from absorbing moisture.

More Active Ingredient
CarniCote^® is 85% L-carnitine base. Other free-flowing powders chemically alter the l-carnitine into a salt, which has between 58%-67% L-carnitine. With a potency of 85%, CarniCote^® can provide significant space savings in tablets and capsules. In addition, the larger amount of active ingredient makes CarniCote^® 85 a more economical choice.
