L-Carnitine, 500 mg, 180 Capsules

What is L-Carnitine?

L-Carnitine is a non-essential amino acid that is typically found in red meats and other animal-sourced foods. The word, “carnitine” comes from the Latin word “carnus,” meaning meat, because it was first isolated from meat in 1905. A carnivore diet is a valuable way to provide your body with a natural supply of amino acids including carnitine.

Some studies show benefits for athletes taking 1 to 2 grams daily before workouts. L-carnitine research has focused on work output, VO2 max, and lactic acid support.** Though present in many food sources, L-carnitine concentration is low, making supplementation the most viable option.
