Carnitine is one of the most widely used nutritional supplements for athletes. It has a critical role in metabolising fatty acids in muscle and transporting them into the mitochondria where they are processed to help provide energy. Carnitine may help increase aerobic performance, anaerobic capacity, and improve power output in athletes. By assisting the burning of fats as fuel and enhancing fat utilisation during exercise, it may also boost energy. By burning fat as fuel, the body’s supply of glycogen stored in the liver is spared for heavier exertion, which helps increase stamina, endurance and energy supply.
