L-Carnitine, synthesized from lysine and methionine, is essential for transporting long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria for β-oxidation and energy production. While primarily made in the liver, kidneys, and brain, it is stored in skeletal muscle. L-Carnitine also regulates acyl-CoA/CoA balance, neutralizes reactive oxygen species, and supports neuromuscular function. Classified as conditionally essential, it is obtained mostly from diet. Supplementation may enhance oxygen delivery, acetylcholine synthesis, and post-exercise recovery under hypoxic stress.
