L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino acids lysine which plays a vital role in the metabolism of fat. . It increases the use of fat as an energy source by transporting fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are ‘burned’ to release energy for body functions. The L-carnitine form may cause unfavourable side effects however. It is available in various different forms together with propionyl-L-carnitine and acetyl-L-carnitine. Propionyl-L-carnitine, through its augmentation of metabolism has been proven to prevent ischemia-induced heart dysfunction, and acetyl-L-carnitine has been suggested to delay the sequence of Alzheimer’s disease. L-carnitine is found naturally in avocados, breast milk, dairy products, red meats (namely lamb and beef), and tempeh (fermented soybean product). A deficiency of L-Carnitine can be the grounds of muscle fatigue, cramps, or low blood-sugar levels.
Avoid L-carnitine tablets; they may be toxic. If too much used it may caused you muscle fatigue which is not good in your body and if symptoms persist consult your doctor immediately.
