Is it really safe without side effects? Let's first understand what L-carnitine is L-carnitine is also known as L-carnitine or transliteration carnitine, commonly known as fat burning bullet It is a kind of amino acid that promotes fat to be converted into energy Taking L-carnitine, combined with aerobic exercise, can improve the consumption of fat, lose weight to achieve twice the result with half the effort! At the same time, it does not reduce water and muscle, so it is a multi-functional, safe and no side effects diet nutrition supplement The study of carnitine began in the early 20th century In the 1980s, carnitine was listed abroad as a commodity and was included in the 22nd edition of USP In 1984, it was clear that L-carnitine was a very important nutrient In 1985, L-carnitine was designated as a "multifunctional nutrient" at the International Conference on nutrition held in Chicago, The U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) expert committee holds that L-carnitine is "generally recognized as safe and nontoxic" In 1994, the German Ministry of health stipulated that there is no upper limit for the use of L-carnitine In 1996, China's 16th National Food Additive Standardization Technical Committee allowed in drink, milk drink, biscuit, solid drink, L-carnitine is used in milk powder At present, L-carnitine has been used in medicine, health care, food and other fields, and has been regulated as a legal multi-purpose nutrient by Switzerland, France, the United States and the World Health Organization Chinese hygienic standard for food additives GB2760-1996 stipulates that L-carnitine tartaric acid salt is a food nutritional fortifier, which can be used in chewing tablets, drinks, capsules, milk powder and milk drinks The metabolic process of fat is to go through a shield Outside the shield is mitochondria, which can burn fat and make it become energy and be consumed by the body But big fat cells can't pass this shield If fat doesn't enter into mitochondria, no matter how you exercise or how you diet, you can't consume it (fat) L-carnitine is an essential coenzyme in the process of fat metabolism, which can promote fatty acids to enter mitochondria for oxidative decomposition It just acts as the "Porter" of fat to mitochondria, carrying the oversized fat cells to the outside of the shield bit by bit, and sending them to mitochondria to burn fat To achieve the ideal degree of fat burning, the body needs an ideal balance of carnitine content However, the amount of carnitine synthesis and intake from food is far from the need, so with the growth of age, fat accumulation has become inevitable Because the level of L-carnitine in the body is gradually decreasing, only a few people can maintain a certain level of L-carnitine Therefore, the proper supplement of L-carnitine, so that your fat burning in time, will make you healthy, slim, with a charming figure The content of L-carnitine in diet mainly comes from animal and plant is very little: the rich sources are lean meat, liver, heart, yeast, mutton, chicken, rabbit meat, milk and whey; the good sources are avocado, casein and malt Fasting, vegetarianism, vigorous exercise, obesity, pregnancy, male infertility, infants who eat formula food without fortified carnitine are easy to lack carnitine The low content of lysine, vitamin and iron in diet also leads to the lack of carnitine Many patients, such as heart disease, hyperlipidemia, kidney disease, liver cirrhosis, malnutrition, hypothyroidism and some muscle and nerve diseases, have low carnitine level L-carnitine supplement mainly depends on exogenous supplement, and the importance of carnitine supplement is no less than vitamin and mineral element supplement.
