PURE L-Carnitine Capsules
L-carnitine is essential for your body when it comes to producing energy from fat stores.
As an essential part of fat metabolism, L-carnitine transports fatty acids into 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 using fatty acids as an energy source. Mitochondria rely on carnitine to transport long-chain fatty acids across their membrane with the help of carnitine palmitoyltransferase. Only then can these fatty acids be used to produce energy.
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 small amounts of L-carnitine itself (around 10 to 20 mg per day) from the amino acids lysine and methionine, but it needs an adequate supply of vitamin C, B3, B6 and iron to do so.
Who has an increased risk of L-carnitine deficiency?
Because carnitine is mainly found in red meat, people who eat little meat or follow a vegetarian diet can quickly develop a deficiency. They often consume only 5 mg or less per day, while mixed-diet eaters get approx. 50 mg per day from food. People who do not have an adequate supply of vitamin C, B3, B6 and iron, which are needed for the body’s own synthesis, are also at risk.
Genetic factors can also influence carnitine requirements – studies have found that many Europeans have mutations in the carnitine transporter gene (OCTN2), which may make a higher intake necessary to optimally support energy metabolism. (1)

Can L-carnitine effectively boost 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 discussion around this is not yet settled. Still, there are promising indications: A study by Müller et al. (2002) showed that taking L-carnitine increased fatty acid oxidation by 30%. (2)

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers from Edubily
Each capsule contains 250 mg carnitine. Is that not too little?
200-500 mg per day is completely sufficient. Dosages of 2-3 g are not necessary and can even inhibit the effect of thyroid hormones.
Can you take L-carnitine while breastfeeding?
Yes, L-carnitine can also be taken while breastfeeding.
