10 Ways L-Carnitine Improves Health

We know that amino acids are vital to pretty much every aspect of health, and L-carnitine is no exception. From enhancing weight loss to boosting brain function, L-carnitine really shines as a vital protein building block.

The importance of L-carnitine is particularly clear in the transport of fatty acids. This is why it’s especially well known as a fat burner.

In fact, L-carnitine is the only molecule in our cells with the ability to move fatty acids into the mitochondria where it’s used for energy. Equally important, L-carnitine carries the waste generated by ATP metabolism out of the mitochondria (1).

This action of being a receptor molecule for different fatty acids makes L-carnitine a key performer in the essential functions of the human metabolism (2).

10 WAYS L-CARNITINE IMPROVES HEALTH

In addition to these profound fat burning and energy producing strengths, studies have also shown that L-carnitine can help (3-6):

  1. Increase Endurance
  2. Promote Positive State of Mind
  3. Reduce Fatigue
  4. Support Immune System Function
  5. Lower Cholesterol
  6. Prevent Muscle Damage
  7. Decrease oxidative stress from Diabetes
  8. Boost Brain Function
  9. Boost Male Fertility
  10. Regulate Blood Sugar & Reduce Cravings

In short, L-carnitine isn’t an amino acid you want in low supply

L-CARNITINE SHORTAGES

Because the human body mostly receives its supply of L-carnitine from red meat, dairy products and mushrooms—fruits and vegetables contain little or no L-carnitine—it’s especially important to supplement vegetarian and vegan diets with this important amino acid.

Without supplementation, vegetarian and vegan diets only provide approximately 3-20% of the needed L-carnitine levels received through a mixed diet. This amount is classified as being inadequate (7).

You can help your body maintain healthy levels of L-carnitine by using pH Miracle® L-Carnitine.
