Carnitine Metabolism and Human Nutrition offers a contemporary and
in-depth look at the biological effects of carnitine metabolism and
its application to clinical and sports nutrition, based on decades
of robust scientific enquiry. It gathers and distills key results
of the last 20 years of carnitine research to provide an invaluable
reference tool for students, researchers, and clinicians. This book
addresses the importance of carnitine in skeletal muscle fuel
metabolism, the complexities and importance of muscle carnitine
transport, and the metabolic insight that has been gained from
experiments manipulating muscle carnitine stores. The authors cover
the potential application of carnitine supplementation in specific
clinical populations and the role of carnitine as an ergogenic aid
for athletes. They also provide a comprehensive mechanistic
overview of skeletal muscle insulin resistance, including the role
of carnitine shuttle systems in the metabolic abnormalities
associated with obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Carnitine
Metabolism and Human Nutrition provides you with a comprehensive
and up-to-date look at the properties and underlying metabolic
biochemistry of carnitine. The book provides contributions from
leading international scientists, each a pioneer in their chosen
study of carnitine metabolism or its application to human
nutrition.
