L-Carnitine 2000 mg | 12 x 700 ml

QNT's L-Carnitine is presented here as a refreshing zero-calorie hypotonic and rehydrating drink. It contains 2000 mg of L-Carnitine per bottle, a nutrient that 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 accompany you during exercise.

In its 700ml drink format, L-Carnitine from QNT allows you to kill two birds with one stone to both hydrate and burn fat naturally throughout the day. This drink will help you improve your performance during cardio-based exercises, develop your lean muscle mass as well as recover better after exercise so you can string together workouts without a slump.

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 its discovery in 1905, it is a valuable ally in endurance sports as it helps to increase maximum oxygen consumption (vo2 max), thereby improving performance and creating a recovery environment conducive to anabolism.

Renowned for these fat-burning virtues, L-Carnitine also helps to improve endurance and energy. It also enables better recovery after exercise. It helps transport all nutrients, such as lipids, carbohydrates or even 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 is widely renowned for its fat-burning virtues. 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. Increasing carnitine levels in the body will in fact save muscle glycogen and consequently draw more energy from fat masses. L-Carnitine therefore enables optimal fat burning.

By coupling the production of energy from muscles and fatty acids, L-Carnitine reserves therefore 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 therefore also enable more fat to be burned - 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 energy gain created allows for optimal recovery for longer, more intense workouts.

The L-Carnitine will naturally come to help improve the circulation of oxygen in the blood. Consequently, by increasing the maximum consumption of oxygen by the body during an effort, this has a direct impact on performance. Consuming L-Carnitine can help to obtain a 'second wind' effect during training sessions, particularly those involving endurance and cardio. This additional energy from which the body benefits thanks to the conversion of fatty acids is therefore particularly highly prized. In comparison, L-Carnitine is a better source of energy than caffeine. Indeed, the latter will offer a quick, short-lived energy boost, whereas L-Carnitine has longer-lasting effects that will therefore be more effective for your training.

The second source of energy provided by L-Carnitine is also much more interesting. In fact, converted directly from fat, it is virtually infinite because the body is able to store the lipids needed for this transformation. In this way, the energy creation process is perpetually renewed while sparing the muscles.

Finally, L-Carnitine reduces fatigue and enables better recovery after exercise. Due to this supplement's ability to transport more oxygen to the muscles, not only is training performance enhanced, but efforts also seem easier. The L-Carnitine therefore helps boost overall energy and endurance during workouts.

1/2 bottle per day during sporting effort or during the day (between meals).
