L-carnitine Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing product penetration among consumers

L-carnitine is known to boost mental functioning, reduce fatigue, and enhance post-exercise recovery among the elderly. The common issue of skeletal decline in aging population can also be cured with the help of L-carnitine. The product is beneficial and helps in promoting healthy aging, reducing muscle degradation, and maintaining lean muscle mass. L-carnitine is taken as a supplement by people with low levels of L-carnitine produced in their bodies. Low levels of L-carnitine in some people are attributed to numerous factors including several medical issues such as skeletal myopathies, ingestion of several drugs, and genetic disorders. Rising awareness regarding timely checkup and increasing concerns regarding health issues among the mass along with a growing number of treatments for various diseases & disorders are expected to benefit the L-carnitine market over the forecast period. As per the data published by the World Health Organization (WHO), the worldwide primary cause of death is linked with cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, 31% of the deaths each year worldwide, which amount to 17.9 million deaths, are caused by cardiovascular diseases. Heart ailments are reportedly caused by factors such as obesity, smoking, excess caffeine or alcohol, and high blood pressure among others.

Driver: Increasing use of the product in animal feed

Growing concerns of safety and quality of meat have resulted in the increased use of nutritional supplements in animal feed. The use of L-carnitine as a supplement in animal feed is likely to provide various benefits including improved reproduction process, growth & performance. Poultry, one of the fastest-growing part of agricultural sector, utilizes L-carnitine for improvement in chicken meat production. Moreover, L-carnitine is observed to result in improved ergogenic properties for enhanced of physical performance. The demand for L-carnitine is expected to rise owing to the increased consumption of chicken, especially among fitness enthusiasts. L-carnitine is also used in feed for birds as well as animals such as pigs, racing horses, and cows to enhance their growth and daily performance. The growth in animal feed industry is likely to result in high demand for L-carnitine in feed application. The feed application uses chemically synthesized L-carnitine, which is convenient to produce at an industrial scale and is approved by most governments as an additive in feed application.

Restraint: Rising awareness regarding the side-effects and misleading advertisements

Carnitine is used to enhance athletic performance; however, there is still a lack of consistent evidence from research to establish the aid of carnitine as a fact. For instance, carnitine supplements have not been found to increase the level of carnitine in the muscles, improve metabolism, nor increase body’s use of oxygen. Aging is another factor that has been involved in the research concerning carnitine. Aging is said to be caused by the decreased mitochondrial function in the body. The research conducted on rats in laboratories revealed that the use of carnitine reduced mitochondrial decay; however, there have been no solid studies proving the same effect of the product in humans. High doses of carnitine are linked with high cholesterol caused by a compound called trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), which is created by gut bacteria. High cholesterol level leads to increased heart risk due to excess saturation in artery walls. Therefore, the threat of possible heart disorders including coronary artery diseases, heart rhythm problems, and heart attacks is likely to restrict the growth of L-carnitine market.
