L-Carnitine

Making energy happen

Overview

Product Details

Carnitine supports cardiovascular health, facilitates energy metabolism, improves exercise recovery time, and plays a role in weight management. It does all this by delivering long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, the energy factory of cells. The fat is then oxidized and muscular energy is produced—which is particularly important for vital organs like the heart. Additionally, it has been shown to prevent the buildup of toxic compounds and waste by transporting them out of the mitochondria.
