- Emerging evidence suggests that certain nutrients, such as omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, CoQ10, and carnitine may help promote fertility and successful birth outcomes.
- L-carnitine’s primary benefit is to provide energy for sperm, and thereby increase sperm motility.
- Adequate carnitine consumption helps mitochondria (the “powerhouses of the cell”) achieve maximal energy production
- Women experience a decline in mitochondrial function with age; a factor linked to lower pregnancy rates. Research suggests carnitine supplementation can support mitochondrial function and help improve reproductive success
A woman’s chances of getting pregnant decrease significantly after the age of 35, primarily due to falling hormone levels and the ovaries’ diminished capacity to produce eggs of adequate number and quality. What’s more, mitochondrial function in the eggs and ovaries rapidly declines with advanced maternal age.
Carnitine supports mitochondrial function by eliminating the buildup of molecules that can become toxic to mitochondria, stabilizing mitochondrial membranes, and helping protect against mitochondrial death.
