L-Carnitine
Chemical Name: (R)-3-Hydroxy-4-(trimethylazaniumyl)butanoate
Molecular Formula: C₇H₁₅NO₃
Mechanism of Action
• Fatty Acid Oxidation: L-Carnitine plays a crucial role in the transportation of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are oxidized to produce energy. This process is essential for maintaining cellular energy levels, particularly during periods of increased energy demand, such as exercise.
• Mitochondrial Function: By facilitating the entry of fatty acids into the mitochondria, L-Carnitine supports mitochondrial function and enhances the efficiency of cellular respiration.
• Reduction of Oxidative Stress: L-Carnitine has antioxidant properties, helping to reduce oxidative stress and protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
