L-Carnitine 2000
Brand: Body Attack
Dr. Feb's Analysis
Scientific Mechanism
This supplement utilizes L-Carnitine Tartrate to facilitate the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, the cellular powerhouses, where they are oxidized for energy production. L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting cells from oxidative stress and regenerating other antioxidants like Vitamin E. It also aids in the biosynthesis of carnitine itself. D-Biotin functions as a vital coenzyme in carboxylase enzymes, essential for the metabolism of macronutrients (fats, carbohydrates, proteins) and plays a role in cellular signaling pathways that influence nervous system health.

Key benefits include:
- Supports normal energy-yielding metabolism
- Contributes to normal psychological function
