HyperStrength Liquid L Carnitine 16 fl oz

L-Carnitine serves two important functions. Transporting fat molecules to the mitochondria (the furnace of the cell) to be burned as fuel. L-Carnitine is a co-factor required for transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria of your muscle cells where they serve as a substrate for energy production while sparing muscle glycogen. Carnitine levels are also linked to the metabolism of BCAA's, considered the most important amino acids for sports performance. In skeletal muscles BCAAs are partially metabolized to branched chain keto acids (BCKA's), which subsequently are linked up to Carnitine and released into general circulation. These BCKA Carnitine complexes are taken up by the liver for further oxidation to yield energy.
