We investigated the effects of acetyl L-carnitine (ALC) on elderly patients experiencing chronic fatigue. In our study of 96 participants aged 70 and above, we found that ALC significantly reduced both physical and mental fatigue.
After treatment, improvements were noted in functional abilities and cognitive performance, with patients experiencing less muscle pain and fewer sleep disorders. Overall, our findings indicate that ALC can be an effective option for alleviating fatigue and enhancing quality of life in older individuals.

Strength regained!

Excellent! I take l-carnitine 30 minutes before a high-intensity workout. It helps transport fatty acids to the mitochondria, where fat is burned and converted into energy. After the flu, I regained strength! Fatigue disappeared, my muscles and joints strengthened, and my work capacity increased! L-Carnitine is essential for our cells and energy. During a month of taking 1 capsule of 500 mg per day (plus 1 capsule of alpha-lipoic acid), I lost 5 kg without special diets. I didn't use it for weight loss or athletic performance; just to regain my energy. Wishing everyone beauty and health! I hope you find this review interesting and useful!

We observed the impact of L-carnitine on leg cramps in a 69-year-old Japanese woman who experienced painful nocturnal leg cramps. This occurred after she had been on cefcapene-pivoxil, a pivalate-containing antibiotic, for six months.
Investigations revealed decreased levels of serum-free carnitine and acylcarnitine in her body, leading to a diagnosis of carnitine deficiency. We learned that this deficiency was likely caused by her long-term use of the antibiotic, which can interfere with carnitine absorption.
After starting oral L-carnitine treatment, we noted marked improvement in her symptoms, suggesting that L-carnitine could play a beneficial role in alleviating leg cramps associated with carnitine deficiency. This case serves as a reminder to consider carnitine levels in patients experiencing leg cramps, particularly those on pivalate-containing antibiotics.

We explored the relationship between circulating L-carnitine levels and the risk of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) using data from genetic studies.
Our findings indicate that higher levels of L-carnitine may protect against NMOSD, specifically in patients who are negative for aquaporin-4 antibodies. However, there's no causal effect on the seropositive type of NMOSD.
This suggests that while L-carnitine could be a potential biomarker and therapeutic target, its effectiveness may vary depending on the patient subtype.

L-carnitine acts as a battery for the body! I used it for a month (1 capsule 500 mg daily) to recover from covid, not for weight loss. It significantly aided my digestive tract and nervous system, alleviating severe fatigue. I now have energy to walk and exercise, and the weight loss of 4 kg has been a bonus. My husband takes it too for fertility support. Following doctor recommendations, I'll also give it to my daughter, who is struggling with energy post-covid. I trust this product and have ordered it multiple times.

Modulates thyroid hormones

This was it for me (hypothyroidism and CFS). After a lengthy struggle with fatigue and a history of hypothyroidism, I’ve discovered my body doesn't operate like it used to. Despite ideal thyroid levels with medication, I felt weaker. Learning that thyroid medication causes carnitine deficiency piqued my interest. Research suggested taking L-Carnitine can significantly improve energy levels and well-being, which proved true for me when I began 1000mg twice daily. My weakness greatly diminished, endurance improved, and I even started sleeping better. For those with hyperthyroidism, it effectively reduces thyroid levels to normal, yet increases them for hypothyroidism.

We examined the effects of L-carnitine versus a placebo in patients who experienced acute heart attacks. Through a comprehensive review of 13 controlled trials involving over 3,600 participants, we found that L-carnitine led to notable benefits.
Specifically, it was linked to a 27% drop in overall death rates, a striking 65% reduction in life-threatening irregular heartbeats, and a 40% decrease in chest pain episodes.
However, it did not show significant improvements in heart failure or reinfarction rates. Our findings suggest that further large-scale studies should explore this promising, cost-effective treatment.

We investigated the impact of L-carnitine on cholesterol levels in individuals with type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol. In a well-structured 6-month study, patients were assigned either L-carnitine or a placebo.
Over this period, we observed that L-carnitine significantly reduced plasma lipoprotein(a) levels compared to the placebo. This exciting finding suggests that L-carnitine might be a useful dietary supplement for managing cholesterol in patients with diabetes.

L-carnitine is vital for lowering blood cholesterol levels to a healthy range, preventing new fatty deposits, and supporting weight loss. It also aids heart function, saturates body cells with oxygen, and protects nerve cells from toxins. I take one capsule in the morning on an empty stomach before training to see results.

L-carnitine significantly improves thyroid function and liver health, reducing the risk of myocardial ischemia. It’s prescribed for those at risk, including atherosclerosis patients and those susceptible to cardiomyopathy. This supplement reinforces the cardiovascular system and aids recovery post-heart attack while promoting weight loss. Its effectiveness is especially noticeable during intense physical exertion, enhancing muscle strength and skeletal hypertrophy. Carnitine uniquely aids in burning fat and fostering muscle growth, making it invaluable for fitness enthusiasts.
