What is L-Carnitine?
NOW®
L-Carnitine Liquid has all of the properties of carnitine in a highly
absorbable liquid form. L-Carnitine is a non-essential amino acid that
helps to maintain overall good health by facilitating the transfer of
fatty acid groups into the mitochondrial membrane for cellular energy
production. It naturally occurs in red meat and other animal-source
foods, but NOW recommend supplementation to obtain optimal levels of
this excellent amino acid. NOW® L-Carnitine is the purest form,
clinically tested, and vegetarian (non-animal sourced). Carnipure®
offers purest L-Carnitine and is a registered trademark of Lonza Ltd,
Switzerland and is supported by numerous studies.
About L-Carnitine:
L-Carnitine
is synthesized in the body from the amino acids lysine and methionine
and plays a critical role in energy production by transporting
long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria, our cells’ “power plants,” for
energy production. Energy production results in toxic metabolic
byproducts. L-Carnitine helps to transport these materials out of
mitochondria, preventing their accumulation.
Research suggests that
as we age, carnitine levels decline, which may lead to a reduction in
the integrity of the mitochondrial membrane and deterioration of
mitochondrial function. Loss of optimal mitochondrial function is
believed to contribute to the aging process. The heart runs primarily on
energy produced from fat; consequently, Carnitine is highly
concentrated in cardiac tissues and may help to support normal cardiac
function.
