Function
Dietary nutrient / metabolic cofactor (transporter of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria)
BENEFITS
Facilitates transport of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria for β-oxidation (fat → energy) → supports energy production especially in tissues using fat as fuel
May reduce fatigue, improve exercise performance in certain populations (especially where carnitine is limiting)
May help preserve muscle function under metabolic stress and reduce metabolic intermediates accumulation
