Does l-carnitine reduce high blood pressure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes & no: Animal study showed it lowered systolic BP in animals with elevated BP but not in normo-tensive animals. Other studies show improvement in BP (as well as Insulin resistance & erectile dysfunction) with acetyl-carnitine. If you're on BP med already, adding (acetyl)carnitine may drop BP too low. Discuss w/ fp before adding/using this supplement.
