L-carnitine
600 mg, 30 capsules
Item Catalog Number:
00156

A major cause of aging is the deterioration of the energy- producing components of the cell, which results in reduced cellular metabolic activity, the accumulation of cellular debris, and eventual death of the cell.1-7

L-carnitine helps to maintain cellular energy metabolism by assisting in the transport of fat through the cell membrane and into the mitochondria within the cell, where these fats are oxidized to produce the cellular energy ATP.8-13
