Efectos de la suplementación de carnitina sobre el nivel de fatiga muscular del gastrocnemio de ratas entrenadas y sedentarias

L-carnitine, considered to be of great value in metabolic processes, plays an important role in the mitochondrial β -oxidation process. It may be used to improve athletic performance and to maintain a higher workload during exercise.
