Doses of l-carnitine pills for weight loss(weight:53kg/height:165) i need a detailed answer please!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No dose for weight: L-carnitine has many benefits but there is no research showing it causes weight loss. It helps burn fat for energy so could help some combined with a healthy diet & exercise, but this is unproven.1000 mg/day is a reasonable dose. See http://www.Umm.Edu/altmed/articles/carnitine-l-000291.Htm anyone with fatigue & depression should try vit d & a b complex that contains the l-5-mtfh form of folate (folic acid).
