L carnitine

L-carnitine participates in the carnitine shuttle, which transports long-chain fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membrane. The body also produces it from lysine and methionine.

• Scientific identity: L-Carnitine; chemistry: 3-hydroxy-4-N-trimethylaminobutyrate.
• How it works: Made or absorbed: The body synthesises it from lysine and methionine; meat and dairy supply more, and oral absorption is relatively modest. Concentrated in muscle: Around ninety-five % of the body's carnitine is held in skeletal muscle.
• Primary function: This transport process contributes to the normal use of fatty acids within cellular energy metabolism.
• What it supports: L-Carnitine helps move fatty acids into your cells' energy-producing machinery to support normal energy metabolism and active recovery.
• Important consideration: Its contribution depends on ingredient form, quantity and the complete formulation.

CARPEDIEM selected L-Carnitine for a clearly defined role within a thoughtfully balanced formulation.

• Formulation purpose: This transport process contributes to the normal use of fatty acids within cellular energy metabolism.
• Used in: CARPEDIEM MultiMen and CARPEDIEM Men’s Daily Performance Stack.
• Works alongside: L-Carnitine complements CoQ10, Taurine and Algal DHA (Omega-3) to support a more coordinated functional-nutrition approach.
• Meaningful contribution: L-Carnitine helps move fatty acids into your cells' energy-producing machinery to support normal energy metabolism and active recovery. Contributes to metabolic processes that are particularly relevant within skeletal muscle.
• Quality and scientific context: Its contribution depends on ingredient form, quantity and the complete formulation. 2 ingredient-specific studies are included because the research reports a relevant benefit.
