Family physician and integrative medicine specialist Dr. Stephen Petteruti, a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO), spent nearly two decades treating patients from his private practice in Warwick, Rhode Island, before he became a staff physician for Intellectual Medicine 120. As the medical director for the lifestyle medicine brand, Dr. Stephen Petteruti oversees the company’s holistic health and wellness services and supplement line. Intellectual Medicine 120 offers supplements and powders that contain important nutrients such as L-carnitine.
L-carnitine is produced naturally and derived from two essential amino acids: lysine and methionine. L-carnitine plays a main role in fueling cells by transporting fat to the mitochondria.
A decline in mitochondria function is closely associated with many aspects of the aging process, including reduced organ function. Sufficient levels of L-carnitine help keep mitochondria healthy.
Several studies have also shown that L-carnitine can improve weight loss results for older or obese people. Further, researchers at the University of Aberdeen found that the supplement can protect sperm health and increase sperm count.
