L-Carnitine Orotate is a compound that combines L-carnitine, an amino acid known for its role in fatty acid metabolism, with orotic acid, a component involved in the biosynthesis of pyrimidines. This supplement is thought to support various biological processes, including the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for β-oxidation, which is essential for energy production, as well as protecting cells against oxidative stress .
Orotic acid, found abundantly in dairy products, plays a role in the urea cycle and arginine metabolism and has been linked to cardiovascular protection, although its precise mechanism in metabolic diseases is not fully understood . When combined with L-carnitine, it forms a complex that has been investigated for its potential to ameliorate resistance and hepatic steatosis, or fatty liver. Research has suggested that this complex can increase the expressions of proteins involved in fatty acid β-oxidation, thus potentially improving hepatic steatosis .
