Carnitine, Free and Total

Get your Carnitine Blood Tests done at LabSafe to find out your Carnitine level. Carnitine (L-carnitine) is a normal component of human blood. Its concentrations are altered in patients with kidney disease, muscle tissue that is damaged or dying, carnitine deficiency, and diabetes. L-carnitine is essential for the transport of free fatty acids into mitochondria and hence to the site for energy production from fat. Carnitine deficiency has been associated with cases of muscle weakness and muscle pain, and may play an important role in at least some disorders of lipid metabolism.
