L-carnitine supplementation in breeding pigeons: impact on zootechnical performance and carnitine metabolism.
In the first experiment (Exp1), three consecutive breeding rounds were performed by two groups of six pigeon couples in order to study the impact of L-carnitine supplementation (80 mg x d(-1)) of parent pigeons on zootechnical performance. Both in the second and third experiments (Exp2, Exp3), one breeding round was performed by two groups of six pigeon couples to reveal the biochemical backgro...
متن کاملAcetyl-L-carnitine supplementation restores decreased tissue carnitine levels and impaired lipid metabolism in aged rats.
The effects of long-term carnitine supplementation on age-related changes in tissue carnitine levels and in lipid metabolism were investigated. The total carnitine levels in heart, skeletal muscle, cerebral cortex, and hippocampus were approximately 20% less in aged rats (22 months old) than in young rats (6 months old). On the contrary, plasma carnitine levels were not affected by aging. Suppl...
متن کاملInfluence of l-carnitine on metabolism and performance of sows.
In recent years, l-carnitine has been used increasingly as a supplement in livestock animals. The present review gives an overview of the effects of dietary l-carnitine supplementation on the reproductive performance of sows. Results concerning the effect of l-carnitine supplementation during pregnancy on litter sizes are controversial. There are some studies reporting an increased number of pi...
متن کاملThe effects of creatine and L-carnitine supplementation on anaerobic performance in athletes
Aims: This study investigated the effects of creatine and L-carnitine supplementation on anaerobic performance and body weight changes in athletes. Methods: In this single-blind randomized clinical trial, 45 athletes were selected and randomly divided into four groups supplemented with: a) Creatine, b) L-carnitine, c) Creatine- L- carnitine and D) placebo.

متن کاملl-Carnitine Supplementation in Recovery after Exercise
Given its pivotal role in fatty acid oxidation and energy metabolism, l-carnitine has been investigated as ergogenic aid for enhancing exercise capacity in the healthy athletic population. Early research indicates its beneficial effects on acute physical performance, such as increased maximum oxygen consumption and higher power output. Later studies point to the positive impact of dietary suppl...
