L-Carnitine is a natural compound often classified as an amino acid due to its similar molecular structure. It occurs naturally in the body and in foods, particularly meat and animal products. Plant sources generally contain very little L-Carnitine. The body can produce L-Carnitine from the amino acids lysine and methionine, but this production depends on factors such as age, gender, and diet.
Men generally have a higher daily requirement for L-Carnitine than women because the body uses it primarily in tissues with high energy demands, such as the heart and skeletal muscle. L-Carnitine is closely related to the B vitamins and is present in all cells of the body. It is stored in skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and liver, with concentrations varying depending on age, diet, and body mass.
