Muscle (Skeletal) Metabolism
Skeletal muscle metabolism
Asparagine and aspartate, both oxaloacetate precursors, and carnitine supplementation may improve muscle metabolism and endurance during prolonged and moderate exercise. Diet supplementation increased muscle capacity to utilize FFA as opposed to glycogen. The experimental supplementation group had a time to exhaustion that was 40% longer than that of the control group. The implication is that oxaloacetate may affect time to exhaustion during exercise.
