Description
- Protocol for Life Balance L-Carnitine is a non-essential amino acid that is abundant in heart, muscle and liver tissues.
- It helps to maintain metabolic health by facilitating the transfer of long-chain fatty acids across the mitochondrial membrane for cellular energy production. In addition, it thereby assists the body in using fat for energy.
- It naturally occurs in red meat and other animal source foods, but some people may have an increased need for dietary L-Carnitine due to high fat and vegetarian diets.
