L-Carnitine is an amino acid derivative that transports fatty acids into your cells to be processed for energy. It is made by your body and also available as a supplement. In theory, using L-carnitine as a weight loss supplement makes sense.
Since L-carnitine helps move more fatty acids into your cells to be burned for energy, you might think this would increase your ability to burn fat and lose weight. However, the human body is extremely complex, and the results of both human and animal studies are mixed.
L-Carnitine’s main role in your body involves mitochondrial function and energy production. In cells, it helps transport fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they can be burned for energy. About 98% of your L-carnitine stores are contained in your muscles, along with trace amounts in your liver and blood. L-carnitine may help increase mitochondrial function, which plays a key role in disease and healthy aging. Newer research illustrates the potential benefits of carnitine’s different forms, which may be used for various conditions, including heart and brain diseases
It plays a crucial role in the production of energy by transporting fatty acids into your cells’ mitochondria. The mitochondria act as engines within your cells, burning these fats to create usable energy. Your body can produce L-carnitine out of the amino acids lysine and methionine. For your body to produce it in sufficient amounts, you also need plenty of vitamin C.
In addition to the L-carnitine produced in your body, you can also obtain small amounts by eating animal products like meat or fish. Vegans or people with certain genetic issues may be unable to produce or obtain enough. This makes L-carnitine a conditionally essential nutrient. L-carnitine is the standard biologically active form of carnitine, which is found in your body, foods and most supplements.
