L-Carnitine
What Is It?
- One of the best old-school fat burners. Many people use it because it is not a strong stimulant like caffeine. Even though it might increase slighty your heart rate, it is considered one of the safest fat burners. L-Carnitine is made in the body from the amino acids Lysine and Methionine.
L-Carnitine Uses
- It is needed to release energy from fat. Its main action is to transfer fatty acids across cell membranes to the mitochondria – to be used as energy. Many researchers have shown that it plays an important role in fat metabolism and the reduction of blood fats (triglycerides), which can create significant health problems.
