A new study provides evidence that daily supplementation with 2 grams of L-carnitine in the form of Carnipure tartrate, from Lonza, can accelerate post-exercise recovery and reduce muscle soreness in middle-aged individuals.

The double-blind, placebo-controlled, balanced, crossover study was conducted by the Department of Kinesiology at the University of Connecticut and published in the August 2010 issue of the Journal Metabolism: Clinical and Experimental. The study complements previously published research that shows similar positive health effects in younger subjects. For further information: www.lonza.com
