L-Carnitine from QNT is presented here in the form of a refreshing hypotonic and rehydrating zero-calorie drink. It contains 2000 mg of L-Carnitine per bottle, a nutrient which plays an important role in energy metabolism and also helps burn fat to provide energy. Containing pure fruit juice, it's a pleasure to drink during exercise or at any time of day (between meals). Available in orange, lime and cranberry flavours, this drink can be consumed throughout the day to refresh you and support your efforts.
In its 700ml drink format, L-Carnitine from QNT allows you to kill two birds with one stone, hydrating you and burning fat naturally throughout the day. This drink will help you to improve your performance during cardio-based exercise, develop lean muscle mass and recover better after exercise so you can continue training without a dip.
WHAT IS L-CARNITINE?
L-Carnitine is a substance synthesised naturally by the liver and kidneys in the body from lysine and methionine. Present in our diet in red meat and pork, its main function is to promote the transport of lipids in the body. It helps to improve metabolic combustion by drawing energy from fat rather than muscle, thereby creating additional energy and preventing body storage. A food supplement that has been highly prized by sportsmen and women since it was discovered in 1905, it is an invaluable ally in endurance sports because it helps to increase maximum oxygen consumption (vo2 max), thereby improving performance and creating a recovery environment conducive to anabolism.
Renowned for its fat-burning properties, L-Carnitine also helps to improve endurance and energy levels. It also improves recovery after exercise. It helps transport all nutrients, such as fats, carbohydrates and proteins, into the mitochondria. This creates more energy and better nourishes the muscles. During exercise, it also provides a 'second wind' to help the athlete's performance.
L-CARNITINE: A POWERFUL FAT BURNER
L-carnitine is widely renowned for its fat-burning properties. During training, the body burns energy, which it first draws from muscle glycogen. After a certain point, energy is also drawn from fatty acids. This is where carnitine comes in: it helps your body to draw on fat faster and more efficiently. By increasing your body's overall energy production, less pure muscular energy is required. The increase in carnitine levels in the body means that muscle glycogen is saved and more energy is drawn from fat. L-Carnitine therefore enables optimal fat burning.
By combining the production of energy from muscles and fatty acids, L-Carnitine reserves make it possible to reduce fatigue and push training further without a drop in intensity. The mobilisation of fatty acids, by improving endurance during exercise, will also enable you to burn more fat - since this means you can train for longer. What's more, even when you're not training, L-Carnitine will help the body to better manage its fat stores so that they don't build up. By naturally converting fatty acids into energy, your body will burn fat throughout the day, preventing it from being stored in the body. What's more, the increase in energy created allows optimal recovery for longer, more intensive training sessions.
