Carnipure Tartrate Increases Muscle L-Carnitine Content

A new study shows that long-term L-carnitine supplementation in the form of Carnipure tartrate, from Lonza, coupled with the intake of carbohydrates increases muscular L-carnitine content in recreational athletes.

The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted by the School of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Nottingham Medical School in England and published in the Journal of Physiology.

During low-intensity exercise, increasing muscle L-carnitine content led to glycogen sparing and increased fatty acid oxidation. In high-intensity exercise, it led to a decrease in anaerobic energy production, including a decrease in muscle lactate accumulation. Furthermore, during a performance test, L-carnitine supplementation resulted in lower perceived exertion as well as increased work output.

Previous studies show that Carnipure tartrate supplementation can increase fatty acid oxidation in a non-athletic population. The current study is the first to show the same effect in recreational athletes. These findings together with previous findings demonstrate that Carnipure supplementation may lead to a decrease in the production of free radicals, less tissue damage and reduced muscle soreness after exercise.
