User Reviews for l-carnitine

There's been anxiety over one study saying L- Carnitine is harmful. Look at the Mayo Clinic's review of 13 studies saying otherwise, including a recent one showing "decreased mortality"in users of over 30%...Many doctors have articles explaining the problems with the mouse study, such as sample size. I would suggest that people worried about it avoid red meat. Fatigue is so crippling that some people need this to have quality life.

I tried for 4 years to have children, even as we had made a failed artificial insemination, and taking these supplements could have 2 children with ease. I recommend it 100% L cartinine I love it....

I have dilated cardiomyopothy and take these to help with fatigue issues. the proof that these work was when I stopped taking them for a few days because I'd ran out my fatigue returned.

I have myophaty and the specialist told me to take 500mg twice a day. Along with other vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin C, vitamin B complex, vitamin B12, vitamin CoQ10 and Krill Omega 3, that I take daily, so I can't give you a description of what any one vitamin does for me. However, I can walk and lift my legs now, and before that I couldn't lift my legs or walk. Thank God! I can now!

I started using this -- two tablespoons in the morning and two in mid-afternoon. I have lost 40 lbs in just a few months and plan to lose another 15 to get to my ideal body weight of around 210. I am 6'2" tall, age 58. I workout regularly 1 hour of cardio 5 x a week and 30 minutes of weights 3 days per week. This is an amazing supplement.

I have only been taking this for about a week for weight loss. I had no idea it would help for my fatigue. I was sleeping between 12-15hrs on my days off. I can now function on just 8. It has been a miracle drug for me so far.

I sleep better and the extreme pain in both lower legs is gone.

I have MS, so I am suffering daily. I am constantly fatigued with very little to no energy at all. Started taking L-Carnitine for the boost, and now I have productive days and Ive lost 12 lbs in 3 weeks. Energy, alertness and weight loss. I don't know if that's good for everyone else, but it works for me.

Alpha Lipoic Acid combined with Acetyl L-Carnitine taken in high does has proved extremely effective for me.

I used it to work out hard in the gym and it did pump me up and it was thermo blasting and I had a lovely boost of energy during my work out. Problem came when I had to go to sleep, it kept me active till 3:30am and my heart was thumping loudly. I kept on checking my blood pressure but It was fine. It was effective to be honest but hey it kept me agitated all night. It works for the right people and not for all. I have stopped it just to keep on the safe side of health. If anyone have a more less concentrate fat burn and endurance drink please fill me in thanxRead More Read Less
