SwansonL-carnitine

L-carnitine is a naturally occurring substance found in food, particularly in animal products such as red meat and fish. It is often used as a dietary supplement, particularly by people with an active lifestyle.

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are found in both animal and plant foods. There are essential and non-essential amino acids.

L-carnitine itself is not an amino acid, but is formed from the amino acids lysine and methionine. It is therefore often referred to as an amino acid-like substance.

L-carnitine is mainly found in animal products such as red meat, chicken, fish and dairy. Plant foods generally contain less L-carnitine.
