PURE L-Carnitine Capsules
L-carnitine is essential for your body when it comes to extracting energy from fat reserves.
As an essential component of fat metabolism, L-carnitine transports fatty acids to the mitochondria, where they are converted into energy. Edubily PURE L-Carnitine uses acetyl-L-carnitine, a particularly bioavailable and effective form that the body can absorb quickly.
What is L-carnitine and why does it play a key role in the body?
Carnitine is a crucial cofactor for the utilization of fatty acids as an energy source. Mitochondria rely on carnitine to transport long-chain fatty acids across their membranes with the help of carnitine palmitoyltransferase. Only then can these fatty acids be used for energy production.
The name comes from the Latin "caro, carnis" (meat), as L-carnitine is mainly found in red meat, such as beef, lamb, and mutton. These provide up to 100 mg per 100 g.
The body can also produce L-carnitine in small amounts (about 10 to 20 mg per day) from the amino acids lysine and methionine, but to do so it requires an adequate supply of vitamins C, B3, B6 and iron.
Who is at increased risk for L-carnitine deficiency?
Since carnitine is mainly found in red meat, people on a low-meat or vegetarian diet can quickly develop a deficiency, as they often only consume 5 mg or less per day, while Omnivores consume approximately 50 mg per day through foodLikewise, people who do not have an adequate supply of vitamins C, B3, B6 and iron, which are needed for the body's own synthesis, are at risk.
Genetic factors can also influence carnitine requirements – studies have shown that many Europeans have mutations in the carnitine transporter gene (OCTN2), which may require a higher intake to optimally support energy metabolism. (1)

Can L-carnitine effectively increase fat burning?
L-carnitine is often associated with improved fat burning because it transports fatty acids for energy production. While some studies show that higher carnitine intake can increase fat metabolism, the scientific debate on this is still ongoing. Nevertheless, there are promising indications: A study by Müller et al. (2002) showed that L-carnitine intake increased fatty acid oxidation by 30%. (2)

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers from Edubily
Each capsule contains 250 mg of carnitine. Isn't that too little?
200-500 mg per day is perfectly sufficient. Doses of 2-3 g are unnecessary and can even inhibit the effects of thyroid hormones.
Can you take L-carnitine while breastfeeding?
Yes, L-carnitine can also be taken while breastfeeding.
