Product Description
TURN FAT INTO FUEL
As a crucial component in transporting long-chain fatty acids to the mitochondria of our cells, L-Carnitine can be found primarily in muscle and brain tissues. Once in the mitochondria, this fat can be oxidized into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the essential fuel for muscle contraction and other bodily functions. Without L-Carnitine, fats cannot be efficiently used as fuel, causing the body to rely on muscle protein and sugar instead. This can result in weakened muscles, slow growth, and stubborn fat reserves that are difficult to remove.
By assisting your body to transform long-chain fatty acids into energy, L-Carnitine is used both as a dieting tool and as a pre-workout supplement. Since L-Carnitine promotes fat as the primary source of energy, often greater amounts of glycogen are available in your muscles – allowing you to workout harder while ensuring that greater amounts of energy come from fat instead of muscle.*
L-Carnitine also assists the body by preventing lactic acid from accumulating in your muscles (lactic acid creates the burning feeling when you’re near exhaustion), which means you’ll be able to workout longer and recover more quickly.*
FOR BULKING, DIETING, & MORE
In short, since L-Carnitine can help limit the amount of new fat storage, it’s perfect for bulking or when trying to gain new, lean muscle. Since L-Carnitine also helps mobilize your body’s fat stores and turn them into energy for your workouts, it’s an essential supplement for anyone dieting or trying to lose weight while preserving lean muscle.*
UK researchers found that subjects taking L-Carnitine burned 55% less muscle glycogen, while increasing fat burning by 55%. They also found that subjects taking L-Carnitine could consume an extra 640 calories of fast-digesting carbs a day without gaining any additional body fat.*
Protect Your Brain and Body
In addition to these proposed fat and lactic acid fighting capabilities, L-Carnitine is also thought to be a potent antioxidant – supporting and protecting both brain and muscle functioning at the highest levels.*2 By reducing free radical damage in the brain, it’s thought that L-Carnitine may even enhance cognition, reduce depressive symptoms, and improve sleep.*
L-CARNITINE ONLY WORKS IF IT’S ABSORBED
