The Numerous Benefits Of Taking L-Carnitine

By Ben Mester


L-Carnitine is an amino acid that's become very popular recently. As an amino acid, it's one of the building blocks of life and has a wide variety of different functions in the body, like the rest of the twenty plus amino acids utilized by the body. So what makes it special?

Well, it has one very special function that's made a large amount of people turn their heads. It has the task of transporting fat molecules into the mitochondria of the cell for energy production. If you remember your high school biology, the mitochondria is the power plant of the cell, burning nutritional elements for power generation. The cell can burn different kinds of energy, one being fat.

Molecules of fat are grabbed and brought into the cell mitochondria for power production. Not only is fat considered a cleaner burning form of fuel than sugar for the body, giving you a nice boost in metabolism generally when more fat is burned, but having a boost in fat burning through natural supplementation can be a powerful aid to your diet regime.

So what have the studies shown? Research has demonstrated that L-Carnitine benefits people in different ways. When supplemented without exercise, there seems to be little boost in fat metabolism. But when it's coupled with a moderate level of exercise, it appears to start the body's fat burning process and not only offers a person with more energy for exercise, but with weight reduction as well.

The body's best fuel is a mixture of fat, oxygen, and sugar. Exercise and L-Carnitine when paired, encourage the body to burn up more of its supply of fat, providing better fuel and a boost to energy levels and the metabolism. It's a natural amino acid that is already used on a daily basis by the body. If you are getting going on an exercise regime and want to have more energy and lose weight, you should think about giving it a try.
