L-Carnitine Complex - 3220 mg with 2184 mg L-Carnitine | 120 Capsules

What is L-carnitine? The body's own compound made from lysine and methionine

  • L-carnitine is a compound that occurs naturally in the body and is formed from the amino acids lysine and methionine. In the diet, it is mainly obtained from meat and dairy products.
  • In biochemistry, L-carnitine is known as a transport molecule that shuttles long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, the "power plants" of the cells. Around 95% of the body's carnitine is found in skeletal and heart muscle (Evans & Fornasini, 2003).
  • In food supplements, L-carnitine is used in stable salt forms, for example as L-carnitine tartrate or as acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR).

3220 mg complex with 2184 mg L-carnitine - high-dose and transparently declared

  • Green Naturals L-Carnitine contains a 3220 mg complex per daily dose - of which 2184 mg is pure L-carnitine.
  • Two forms per daily dose (4 capsules): 2000 mg L-carnitine tartrate (1380 mg L-carnitine) and 1200 mg acetyl-L-carnitine HCl (804 mg L-carnitine) - compared to products that rely on a single form only.
  • L-carnitine tartrate is the form most frequently studied in human trials in connection with physical exercise (review: Fielding et al., 2018); acetyl-L-carnitine additionally carries an acetyl group.

With black pepper extract - 19 mg piperine per daily dose

  • The complex is complemented by 20 mg black pepper extract (Piper nigrum) with 19 mg piperine, the natural pungent compound of pepper.
  • Piperine is being researched as a so-called bioenhancer, i.e. a plant compound that can influence the absorption of other substances (Shoba et al., 1998).
  • 120 vegan capsules last 30 days at 4 capsules daily - filled in Germany and lab-tested.

What is L-carnitine?

L-carnitine is a compound the body produces itself from the amino acids lysine and methionine. In our diet, we mainly obtain it from meat and dairy products. In food supplements, L-carnitine is used in stable forms such as L-carnitine tartrate or acetyl-L-carnitine. Green Naturals combines both forms into a 3220 mg complex with 2184 mg L-carnitine.

What does L-carnitine do?

In biochemistry, L-carnitine is described as a transport molecule that shuttles long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria of the cells. Around 95% of the body's carnitine is found in the muscles. In addition to being produced in the liver and kidneys, L-carnitine is obtained from meat and dairy products. In human studies, it is researched among other things in connection with physical exercise.

What is L-carnitine taken for?

L-carnitine is particularly popular among physically active people and is often taken to complement a balanced diet. People who eat little or no meat usually obtain less L-carnitine from their food. However, a food supplement is no substitute for a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.

What is the difference between L-carnitine tartrate and acetyl-L-carnitine?

L-carnitine tartrate is a compound of L-carnitine and tartaric acid and the form most frequently studied in trials with physically active people. Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) additionally carries an acetyl group. Green Naturals combines 2000 mg tartrate and 1200 mg acetyl-L-carnitine HCl, which together provide 2184 mg of pure L-carnitine.

Why does the product contain black pepper extract?

Black pepper extract provides piperine, the natural pungent compound of pepper. Piperine is being researched as a so-called bioenhancer, i.e. a plant compound that can influence the absorption of other substances. One daily dose contains 20 mg extract with 19 mg piperine. If you take medication, please seek medical advice beforehand.

How much L-carnitine per day?

The recommended daily dose is 4 capsules. They provide a 3220 mg L-carnitine complex, of which 2184 mg is pure L-carnitine (1380 mg from L-carnitine tartrate and 804 mg from acetyl-L-carnitine HCl), plus 19 mg piperine. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Ideally, take the capsules with sufficient liquid during a meal.

When should you take L-carnitine?

Take the 4 capsules daily with sufficient liquid during a meal. You can also split the daily dose, for example 2 capsules each at breakfast and lunch. The exact time matters less than regular daily intake. This makes it easy to fit L-carnitine into your usual daily routine.

L-carnitine before or after training?

There is no official recommendation for intake around training. We recommend taking the capsules every day with a meal, regardless of training. On training days, you can, for example, combine intake with your meal before or after exercise. Above all, regularity is what counts.

Does L-carnitine have side effects?

At the recommended daily dose, L-carnitine is well tolerated by most adults. If you have a sensitive stomach, taking it with a meal or splitting the daily dose can help. As piperine can affect the absorption and action of certain medicines, people taking medication should seek medical advice before use.

Is L-carnitine suitable for women?

Yes, Green Naturals L-Carnitine is equally suitable for adult women and men; the daily dose is identical. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. The same applies if medication is taken regularly, as piperine can influence the absorption of certain active substances.

Are the L-carnitine capsules vegan?

Yes. L-carnitine tartrate and acetyl-L-carnitine HCl are produced without animal raw materials, and the capsule shell is made of plant-based hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). We do without artificial colours, preservatives and flavourings. This makes the capsules suitable for people following a vegetarian or vegan diet.

Who is L-carnitine not suitable for?

The product is intended for adults only. Pregnant women, breastfeeding women and children should consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. People taking medication should seek medical advice beforehand because of the piperine content. Keep out of reach of young children.

How long does one tub last?

One tub contains 120 capsules. At 4 capsules daily, it lasts 30 days. Store the tub in a cool, dry place away from light so that the capsules remain in the best quality until the best-before date. Close the tub tightly after each use to protect the capsules from moisture.

Is L-Carnitine available in pharmacies?

In Germany, Green Naturals® L-Carnitine can be ordered from your online or local pharmacy using PZN 20790702 (a German pharmacy code). Outside Germany, you can buy the capsules directly from the Green Naturals online shop or from online pharmacies. L-Carnitine is a food supplement and does not require a pharmacy. Look out for the PZN to make sure you receive the original.
