| Overview
Technically, L-Carnitine is not an amino acid, but an amino acid-like compound. L-Carnitine helps the body produce energy by transporting fat from fat cells to the mitochondria of cells to be burned for energy. Not only can this energy be utilized by the muscles, but it is also used by the heart and other body tissues. Due to this, L-Carnitine is especially important to optimal cardiovascular health.
This formula uses the L form of Carnitine because it is closer to that which is manufactured by the body. It is chemically synthesized.
