L-Carnitine (600mg/mL)
$59.97
L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring compound involved in fatty acid metabolism. It functions as a transporter of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria, enabling β-oxidation for energy production. This metabolic pathway supports cellular energy balance and reduces the risk of toxic fatty acid buildup within cells.
Note: Each vial is reconstituted with 20ML of BAC water.
L-Carnitine Product Description
L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring compound derived from amino acids that plays an essential role in energy metabolism. It functions primarily as a transporter molecule for long-chain fatty acids, shuttling them from the cytoplasm into mitochondria where they can be oxidized to produce energy.
Chemically, L-carnitine is known as 3-hydroxy-4-N-trimethylaminobutyrate. It exists in two stereoisomeric forms: L-carnitine (the biologically active form) and D-carnitine.
In biochemistry, L-carnitine:
- Facilitates the transport of activated long-chain fatty acids across the inner mitochondrial membrane
- Helps regulate the ratio of acyl-CoA to free CoA in mitochondria
- Participates in removing toxic compounds from mitochondria
- Is involved in branched-chain amino acid metabolism

N-Acetyl Semax Amidate (20mg)
N-acetyl Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) fragment ACTH(4-7), modified with an N-terminal acetyl group and a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro extension. This structural adaptation enhances its stability against enzymatic degradation. N-acetyl Semax interacts with melanocortin receptors (MC₄ and MC₅), modulating pathways linked to cognitive function, stress response, and neuroprotection.
