Carnitine – A Powerhouse Amino Acid

Carnitine or L-Carnitine is a dietary supplement that assists in producing energy through the transport of fatty acids into the cell. The mitochondria inside the cell are what is responsible for burning these acids that give the body the power to get through the day.

L-Carnitine is found in the body naturally.  For your body to produce a lot of L-Carnitine you have to consume large amounts of Vitamin C or get Carnitine in small amounts from the foods you eat – fish and red meats. Vegans in particular are often low on this amino acid. There are also certain genetic issues that prevent the body from making Carnitine in significant amounts.

L- Carnitine is an essential nutrient, having an adequate supply is necessary for health.

We at Vitality Health SFL understand the importance of L-Carnitine in your body and therefore have dedicated our resources to the production of safe and healthy supplementary alternatives that you can consume for raising the levels of L-Carnitine in your body.

A Look at How Carnitine Injections Work

L-Carnitine stores itself in the muscles, brain, and heart. It is produced by the kidneys and liver and its purpose is to convert fat into energy. Used to treat heart issues as well as hyperactive thyroid conditions, it is also a viable tool in weight loss.

Carnitine helps to burn body fat as fuel and helps improve endurance by inhibiting the build-up of lactic acid which causes fatigue during workouts. Studies show that patients who use L-Carnitine for weight loss can expect to see a reduction in body fat, an increase in muscle mass, as well as increased stamina and strength, and less fatigue.

The Benefits of Supplementing with L-Carnitine

Weight loss – Carnitine assists in helping to metabolize fat in your body and enables the mitochondria to function, by carrying the fatty acid cells into the mitochondria of your cells. There they are burned to produce energy.

Exercise Benefits – Those who work out regularly show great improvement in recovery, strength, and the ability to add muscle. L- Carnitine injections have also been associated with the buildup of testosterone levels and better sensitivity to insulin.

Mental Wellness – Because Carnitine helps increase blood flow and circulation it results in better memory, cognitive skills, a reduction in brain inflammation and resulting brain fog, and overall better mood.
