L-Carnitine

L-Carnitine

L-Carnitine is an amino acid that helps transport fatty acids into mitochondria for energy. In sperm, this improves motility and overall vitality.

Does it really work?

Yes. Multiple studies show L-carnitine supplementation can improve sperm motility, count, and overall fertility in men with subfertility.

Can I get enough in real food?

Yes. Red meat is the richest source, with smaller amounts in fish and dairy. Plant-based foods contain very little.

Do I need a supplement for everyday health?

Not for all men, but if sperm motility or count is low, L-carnitine is one of the most effective supplements to improve sperm quality.
