Further confirming this is the elevated amounts of 1,3-diaminopropane, a naturally occurring polyamine, that functions as a byproduct of polyamine degradation 88 , and contributes to the production of metabolites such as beta ()-alanine, which is involved in pyrimidine metabolism 89
Vegetarian diets are also low in lysine and methionine, the two essential amino acids needed to synthesize carnitine
This supports lean muscle, deeper sleep, and faster recovery
