Heart and skeletal muscle contain abundant amounts of L-carnitine that is essential for meeting tissue energy demands by transporting fatty acids to the mitochondria. Normal endogenous production of L-carnitine can be inadequate in patients with kidney disease, diabetes, liver dysfunction, hyperlipidemias, and cardiac problems, thus requiring supplementation. This more stable form of L-carnitine is less susceptible in a dry form to the effects of moisture than pure L-carnitine USP. Supplies 500 mg of elemental L-carnitine per capsule and is free of synthetic D- or DL- carnitine.
Other Ingredients: Vegetarian capsule (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, water), carboxymethylcellulose sodium, silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate.

Naturally-derived, inert excipient materials, including cellulose-based excipients, vegetable-derived magnesium stearate, L-leucine, and silicon dioxide are used in very small amounts as tableting and encapsulation aids. Tableted products are protected with an inert, water-soluble cellulose coating that dissolves readily upon ingestion, thus facilitating tablet disintegration time. Vegetarian capsules made of plant cellulose are used exclusively for two-piece encapsulated products. Common allergens such as wheat, corn, soy, yeast, and dairy are avoided unless otherwise specified on the label.
