Why is the carnitine in Energea better than other forms?
When using L-carnitine in a non-liquid supplement it must be stabilized with something. The two stabilized forms available are L-carnitine fumarate and L-carnitine tartrate. In recent controlled studies the fumarate form used in Energea outperformed the tartrate form hands down. Experiments with both forms of carnitine have shown that after 8 hours from the time of consumption of equal portions of L-carnitine tartrate and fumarate, the fumarate form resulted in a higher blood level than the tartrate and the bioavailability curve was more constant over time, thus delivering a much more efficient biological action. In addition, the fumarate, or fumaric acid, found in Energea is actually a part of the body’s energy production cycle (Krebs cycle). It’s been shown to have antioxidant and cardio-protective properties all its own. Energea also contains highly activated acetyl L-carnitine. This form of carnitine tends to energize the brain more efficiently than other forms of carnitine because
