Mitochondria are central to energy production and therefore fully integrated into the rest of the cell's physiological responses to aging. The age-related decline of capacity of each cell to manufacture energy (as ATP) is due to the progressive loss of structural integrity of mitochondria. As the body ages, the cells become less able to maintain adequate levels of cellular energy production. Research suggests that L-carnitine raises the mitochondrial energy-producing capabilities by reversing the age-associated decline in mitochondrial enzyme activities and thereby protecting mitochondria from aging.
L-Carnitine plays a vital role in fat metabolism and energy production. This function is central to the benefits of cardiovascular health, sports performance, and weight management. Carnisol™ is a unique soft gelatin formula made exclusively with L-CarniPure®.
Carnisol™ is the premier soft gelatin formulation providing 100% pure L-carnitine from L-CarniPure®. The patented manufacturing process of L-CarniPure® eliminates the harmful D-isomer.
L-Carnitine plays a crucial role in fat and energy breakdown and cellular metabolism. The production of energy from fat requires that the fatty acids are transported from the cytosol of the cell into the mitochondria for beta-oxidation, the process of fatty acid breakdown or "fat burning." L-Carnitine is part of a shuttle system which takes the long chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for beta-oxidation.
Lower levels of myocardial L-carnitine are found in patients who have had heart failure, and it has been proposed that L-carnitine therapy may be valuable in the management of these patients.
Clinical research has shown a decrease in muscular free L-carnitine concentration during exercise. Endurance athletes believe that L-carnitine supplementation can increase the maximum aerobic power that can be achieved, and this translates into an increase in endurance performance.
Clinical evidence has shown that L-carnitine supplementation prior to exercise helps helps delay the onset of fatigue. Additionally, L-carnitine is helpful for alleviating delayed onset muscle soreness.
L-Carnitine may help in weight management by helping enhance the rate at which fatty acids are broken down, increasing metabolic rate, and promoting protein synthesis.
Supplementation with CarnisolT may be beneficial for: cardiovascular health, exercise performance, and weight management.
