L-carnitine is an amino acid from which certain proteins are made. It is synthesized in the liver and kidneys. The body requires it for the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the cells. It also supports metabolism and provides antioxidant support. L-carnitine is an amino acid that is essential for the transport and utilization of fatty acids in the mitochondria of cells. It supports fat metabolism and oxidation. It is also an antioxidant for the maintenance of good health.

L-carnitine

is a chemical that is made in the human brain, liver, and kidneys. It helps the body turn fat into energy.
Is important for heart and brain function, muscle movement, and many other body processes. The body can convert it to other chemicals called acetyl-L-carnitine and propionyl-L-carnitine. But it’s not clear whether the benefits of these other carnitines are the same.
Used to increase levels in people whose natural levels are too low. Some people also use it for conditions of the heart and blood vessels, serious kidney disease, and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.

Possibly Effective for

Chest pain (angina). Taking L-carnitine seems to improve exercise tolerance in people with chest pain. Taking it along with standard treatment also seems to reduce chest pain and improve exercise ability in people with cardiac syndrome X. People with this condition have chest pain but not blocked arteries. IV products can only be given by a healthcare provider.
Heart failure and fluid build up in the body (congestive heart failure or CHF). Taking L-carnitine seems to improve symptoms and increase exercise ability in people with heart failure.
