Here's the process: Your body mobilizes fatty acids from fat stores (lipolysis) These fatty acids arrive at the mitochondria the cellular power plants where energy is produced Long-chain fatty acids cannot cross the inner mitochondrial membrane on their own they need a shuttle L-Carnitine binds to the fatty acid , forming acylcarnitine, and carries it across the membrane via the carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT) system Inside the mitochondria, the fatty acid is released and undergoes beta-oxidation the metabolic process that breaks it down into acetyl-CoA, which enters the Krebs cycle to produce ATP (energy) Think of L-Carnitine as the shuttle bus that moves fat into the cellular furnace
