Carnitine aids bone pain relief
Determining and surveying the role of carnitine and folic acid to decrease fatigue in β-thalassemia minor subjects.
We examined the potential benefits of carnitine and folic acid in reducing bone pain and fatigue in patients with beta-thalassemia minor. Over three months, 73 participants received either carnitine alone, a combination of carnitine and folic acid, or folic acid alone, while a control group went without supplementation.
Our results showed that carnitine significantly improved plasma levels and reduced bone pain and muscle weakness for those affected by this condition. Although folic acid improved red blood cell levels, its impact on bone pain was not directly highlighted. Overall, our findings suggest that carnitine can be beneficial in addressing bone pain in these patients.

My husband often experiences bone pain. On a friend's recommendation, we tried this complex instead of vitamin B injections, and it genuinely works; relief comes quickly, and discomfort vanishes. This vitamin is now a staple in our first aid kit. The liquid form is very convenient – just drops under the tongue.
