L-Carnitine Supplement an Essential Amino Acid
Naeem
L-Carnitine is an amino acid found in high levels in muscle tissue & is synthesized in the body from Lysine and Methionine. L-Carnitine plays an essential role in fat metabolism, by transporting long-chain fatty acids into the Mitochondria; which act like power houses and make energy available to the body of the cell. Long-chain Fatty acids are oxidized in mitochondria by a process called beta-oxidation & stored as ATP, a prime energy fuel. Beta-oxidation is especially important for our muscles, which largely depend on fatty acids for energy. L-Carnitine is synthesized primarily in the liver and also in the kidneys, and must be transported to other tissues. It is most concentrated in tissues that use fatty acids as their primary dietary fuel, such as skeletal and cardiac (heart) muscle. In this regard, L-Carnitine plays an important role in energy production by chaperoning activated fatty acids (Acyl-CoA) into the Mitochondrial matrix for metabolism and chaperoning intermediate compounds out of the Mitochondrial matrix to prevent their accumulation. L-Carnitine plays a fundamental role in energy production, and it is used to support all bodily functions that require high levels of energy.
