L - Carnitine

L-Carnitine is an amino acid manufactured in your liver from the amino acids lysine & methionine. It is found in muscle & organ meats in the human diet. Vegetarians are susceptible to deficiencies of all 3 of the above amino acids. L-Carnitine plays an important role in converting fat into energy.* It transfers fatty acids in the cell to the mitochondria (the energy engine) which uses the fatty acids as fuel to generate energy.* It assists in regulating fat metabolism in your heart & skeletal muscles.*

L-Carnitine is also available by prescription as "Carnitor"
