A,B,C Correct answer
Explanation

L-carnitine plays a key role in fatty acid metabolism by facilitating the transport of long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria for beta-oxidation. It also has potential anti-inflammatory properties in various disease states. However, clinical evidence regarding its efficacy for weight loss in obese pets remains limited, meaning more data is needed before recommending its widespread use for obesity.
