Chronic administration of high doses of oral L-Carnitine in patients with severely compromised renal function or in ESRD patients on dialysis may result in accumulation of the potentially toxic metabolites, trimethylamine (TMA) and trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), since these metabolites are normally excreted in the urine. Mecobalamin Should be given with caution in patients suffering from folate deficiency. The following warnings and precautions suggested with parent form – vitamin B12 The treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency can unmask the symptoms of polycythemia vera. Megaloblastic anemia is sometimes corrected by treatment with vitamin B12. But this can have very serious side effects. Don’t attempt vitamin B12 therapy without close supervision by healthcare provider. Do not take vitamin B12 if Leber’s disease, a hereditary eye disease.

Modern advances in the field of metabolomics afford the opportunity to readily identify new metabolite biomarkers across a wide array of disciplines. Many of the metabolites are derived from or directly reflective of mitochondrial metabolism. L-carnitine and acylcarnitines are established mitochondrial biomarkers used to screen neonates for a series of genetic disorders affecting fatty acid oxidation, known as the inborn errors of metabolism. However, L-carnitine and acylcarnitines are not routinely measured beyond this screening, despite the growing evidence that shows their clinical utility outside of these disorders. Measurements of the carnitine pool have been used to identify the disease and prognosticate mortality among disorders such as diabetes, sepsis, cancer, and heart failure, as well as identify subjects experiencing adverse drug reactions from various medications like valproic acid, clofazimine, zidovudine, cisplatin, propofol, and cyclosporine.

  • Carnitine: What Is It? Carnitine
    Home Health Information News & Events Research & Funding About ODS Dietary Supplement Fact Sheet: TABLE OF CONTENTS Carnitine: What is it? Carnitine What are recommended intakes Health Professional Other Resources for carnitine? What foods provide carnitine? Carnitine: What is it? Carnitine, derived from an amino acid, is found in nearly all cells of the body. Its name is derived from the Latin Absorption and metabolism of carnus or flesh, as the compound was isolated from meat. Carnitine is the generic term for a number of carnitine compounds that include L-carnitine, acetyl-L-carnitine, and propionyl-L-carnitine [1-2]. When can a carnitine deficiency occur? Carnitine plays a critical role in energy production. It transports long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria so What are some current issues they can be oxidized ("burned") to produce energy. It also transports the toxic compounds generated out of this and controversies about cellular organelle to prevent their accumulation. Given these key functions, carnitine is concentrated in tissues like carnitine? skeletal and cardiac muscle that utilize fatty acids as a dietary fuel [1-2]. Are there health risks from too much carnitine? The body makes sufficient carnitine to meet the needs of most people. For genetic or medical reasons, some individuals (such as preterm infants), cannot make enough, so for them carnitine is a conditionally essential Carnitine and medication nutrient [1]. interactions Supplemental sources of carnitine What are recommended intakes for carnitine? Carnitine intakes and healthful Healthy children and adults do not need to consume carnitine from food or supplements, as the liver and kidneys diets produce sufficient amounts from the amino acids lysine and methionine to meet daily needs [1-3].

  • Treatment Options for Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms of Parkinson’S Disease
    biomolecules Review Treatment Options for Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease Frank C. Church Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, The University of North Carolina School of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Parkinson’s disease (PD) usually presents in older adults and typically has both motor and non-motor dysfunctions. PD is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder resulting from dopamin- ergic neuronal cell loss in the mid-brain substantia nigra pars compacta region. Outlined here is an integrative medicine and health strategy that highlights five treatment options for people with Parkinson’s (PwP): rehabilitate, therapy, restorative, maintenance, and surgery. Rehabilitating begins following the diagnosis and throughout any additional treatment processes, especially vis-à-vis consulting with physical, occupational, and/or speech pathology therapist(s). Therapy uses daily administration of either the dopamine precursor levodopa (with carbidopa) or a dopamine ago- nist, compounds that preserve residual dopamine, and other specific motor/non-motor-related compounds. Restorative uses strenuous aerobic exercise programs that can be neuroprotective. Maintenance uses complementary and alternative medicine substances that potentially support and protect the brain microenvironment. Finally, surgery, including deep brain stimulation, is pursued when PwP fail to respond positively to other treatment options. There is currently no cure for PD. In conclusion, the best strategy for treating PD is to hope to slow disorder progression and strive to achieve stability with neuroprotection. The ultimate goal of any management program is to improve the quality-of-life for a person with Parkinson’s disease.

  • Choline, Inositol, L-Carnitine, Taurine
    Ingredients in infant milks Choline, Inositol, L-Carnitine, Taurine Choline Choline is found in a number of forms in human milk, and the choline content of human milk is influenced by maternal choline intake. It is synthesised in the body, and the extent to which it is a required dietary component under normal circumstances is unclear. Choline serves as the precursor for the synthesis of phosphatidyl choline (PC), the main phospholipid in brain, liver and other tissues. PC plays a role in normal membrane composition and signalling processes, lipid metabolism, and normal brain development. As it is essential, and the potential for impaired synthesis or increased needs are not clear, it remains mandatory in infant formula. Following EFSA (2014) recommendations, current regulations specify a minimum choline content of 25mg/100kcal in infant formula, however it is not considered a necessary ingredient in follow-on formula. Inositol Inositol is an essential growth factor which is synthesised in the body but may need to be provided in the diet under certain conditions. Inositol is present in high concentration in human milk and decreases over the course of lactation. Inositol levels in blood are high among neonates, leading to the suggestion that inositol plays an important role in early development (Scientific Committee on Food, 2003) and as the amount of endogenous synthesis in infants is unknown, legislation has previously given minimum and maximum levels for inositol in infant formula suitable from birth. Current regulations reflect the EFSA opinion (2014) that inositol should be added to infant formula at 4mg/100kcal, but that it is not a necessary component of follow-on formula.

Gut microbial metabolism of choline results in the production of trimethylamine (TMA), which, upon absorption by the host is converted into trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) in the liver. A high accumulation of both components is related to cardiovascular disease, inflammatory bowel disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and chronic kidney disease. However, the relationship between the microbiota production of these components and its impact on these diseases still remains unknown. In this review, we will address which microbes contribute to TMA production in the human gut, the extent to which host factors (e.g., the genotype) and diet affect TMA production, and the colonization of these microbes and the reversal of dysbiosis as a therapy for these diseases.
