Jarrow Liquid Carnitine 1000, 16 Oz: Description: Carnitine is essential for the production of energy from fats, a process called fatty acid oxidation. Major body tissues, such as the heart and skeletal muscles, depend on fatty acid oxidation as a primary source of energy. L-Carnitine promotes proper fatty acid oxidation by transporting long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for energy production. Also, L-Carnitine facilitates the metabolism of carbohydrates, enhances the rate of oxidative phosphorylation (ATP or energy production). L-Carnitine is a naturally occuring compound made in the body from the essential amino acid lysine and methionine. Although red meat is the best dietary source, each serving of Jarrow Formulas L-Carnitine 1000 contains the equivalent of 3. 5 lbs of steak. L-Carnitine 1000 is naturally synthesized by microbiological fermentation and is not animal derived. L-Carnitine is necessary for proper fat metabolism and energy production, especially during protracted periods of aerobic exercise.
