A combination of L-Carnitine and Coenzyme Q10

L-Carnitine is used by the body to transport long chain fatty acids to the mitochondria in your cells, where it is burned for energy. Since this fat burning is such a major source of muscular energy, deficiencies in Carnitine are manifested as low energy levels and muscular weakness. They can also appear as mental confusion or cloudiness, angina (heart pain) and weight gain. Since the only dietary source of L-Carnitine is meat, vegans and vegetarians, especially athletic vegetarians are most susceptible to Carnitine deficiency.

Coenzyme Q10 sparks the mitochondrial energy production that runs all vital body functions. Thus, processes such as the mechanical beating of the heart and the electrical spiking of the brain must go on continually to preserve the body and the cells of the body. Energy must continually generate energy to support these processes. This steady stream of energy for the "higher-level" body processes depends absolutely on each cell's having adequate levels of CoQ10 with which to provide this energy.
