MEX Nutrition Liquid l-Carnitine 5000 503 ml Orange

L-carnitine is not used like a regular amino acid. Although it is synthesized from lysine and methionine in the liver and kidneys and is used for protein synthesis and/or as a neurotransmitter, it also serves as a carrier of fatty acids into the mitochondria of cells. Thus, L-carnitine converts fat into energy and is informally referred to as 'muscle energy.' Due to its vital role in fat metabolism, it is believed to provide significant assistance in fat burning and weight management. Fat contains more than twice the calories per gram than protein and carbohydrates.
