Carnitine may help stabilize blood sugar
Carnitine has been of interest to diabetes doctors and researchers for some time. Indeed a search of the National Library of Medicine using the terms “carnitine” and “diabetes” brings up papers from 50 years ago. The prevailing opinion from 50 years of metabolic biochemistry is that when we eat more fat than our fat cells can store, it leads to the accumulation of partially metabolized fat molecules which find their way into muscle. There, they activate a signaling pathway that just happens to turn down the sensitivity of the insulin signal. Thus unmetabolized inappropriately stored fat molecules may directly cause insulin resistance.
