Carnitin Power
Carnitine is vitally important for a balanced fat metabolism and the breaking down of fats produced in the body. It is synthesised by the organism from the amino acids lysine and methionine; this synthesis, however, covers only about 10% of the body’s requirements. The human body stores about 20g of carnitine. The highest concentration of carnitine is found in the myocardial cells because the heart receives 60 to 70% of its energy from fat metabolism.
Biochemical function:
Carnitine is required by the human organism to break down fats: It transports fatty acids into the power plants of the cells (mitochondria) and, in addition, is able to remove the by-products of the metabolic process and thus clean the mitochondria. Carnitine improves the immune status and has membrane stabilising, antioxidant and neuroprotective properties.
Vitamin C performs a range of essential metabolic and protective functions in the organism and is vitally important for the production and repair of connective tissue.
Vitamin B3 (niacin or nicotinic acid) is required for protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism, among other things.
Vitamin B6 is the most important coenzyme of amino acid metabolism and is crucial for fat and carbohydrate metabolism.
Iron is needed to form haemoglobin (red blood pigment) and is essential for the cell’s energy metabolism.
Vitamin C,B3,B6 and iron are cofactors for carnitine biosynthesis.
Natural sources:
Carnitine is found in milk and meat (mainly lamb, sheep and beef). Vegetable food contains only very small amounts of carnitine.
Benefits:
- Improvement of the energetic state of the heart
- The supply of energy for endurance performance requires sufficiently high levels of carnitine to ensure optimal fat metabolism.
- Strengthens the immune system
- Boosts brain function
- Is recommended for toddlers in particular situations.
Fat burner carnitine: In combination with a healthy diet and regular exercise, carnitine may help lose weight. In this combination, it allows the body to burn more fat. However, the sole intake of carnitine without regular exercise does not promote fat burning.
