What is Pure L-Carnitine Powder?
Carnitine is an amino acid that comes in a number of forms, L-Carnitine works very differently to Acetyl L-Carnitine, particularly well as a weight loss aid as the main function if this is to convert fat into energy. L-Carnitine is naturally occurring in many foods but only in small doses, one of the highest being in beef providing 84mg in 3oz of steak - for this reason many athletes opt for the concentrated powder to optimise the effects of L-Carnitine. Using L-Carnitine as a weight management supplement makes sense since it helps move more fatty acids into your cells to be burned for energy, you might think this would increase your ability to burn fat and lose weight.

Key benefits:
Recovery - it may improve exercise recovery.
Muscle oxygen supply - it may increase oxygen supply to the muscles.
Stamina - it may increase blood flow and nitric oxide production, helping delay the “burn” and reduce fatigue.
Muscle soreness - it may reduce muscle soreness after exercise.
Red blood cell production - it may increase the production of red blood cells, which transport oxygen throughout your body and muscles.

It is important to note that several studies have shown some benefits when participants have taken L-carnitine supplements in larger doses, or for longer periods. L-carnitine’s benefits may be indirect and take weeks or months to show. This differs from supplements like caffeine or creatine, which can directly enhance sports performance.
