What is L-Carnitine?
L-Carnitine is a compound the body makes from two amino acids, lysine and methionine. It is also found in food, mainly red meat – the name comes from carnis, the Latin for meat. Men who eat little meat tend to get less of it from their diet.
General role
Carnitine acts as a transporter. It carries long-chain fatty acids across the membrane of the mitochondria, the parts of the cell where fats are burned for energy. Because of this role it is widely used in energy, fitness and weight-management products.
Why Vigueur Active includes it
Vigueur Active pairs L-Carnitine with vitamin B3 to create the 'everyday energy' foundation of the formula. Niacin contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue; carnitine addresses the fat-to-energy side. At 150 mg it matches the L-Citrulline dose.
How it relates to the product's purpose: Feeling less tired and better able to keep up with work, training and family is the first thing most men want from a vitality supplement.
Where it sits in the formula
Vigueur Active contains eight active ingredients in one vegetable capsule: vitamin B3, zinc, L-Citrulline, L-Carnitine, pine bark extract, maca root extract, grape skin extract and saffron extract.
