if $f$ is Lebesgue integrable in $[0,1] \Rightarrow f$ is bounded in $[0,1]$?

I know this is almost trivial or evident, but I wanted to be sure if any Lebesgue integrable function on a compact set is bounded or not. I hope it is true because I'm using that fact for solving some of my problems. If it is not true, please provide a counterexample. Thanks.

Unfortunately this is not true: let $f(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$ for $0<x\leq 1$, with $f(0)$ defined however you want. Then $f$ is integrable on $[0,1]$ but not bounded.
