L-Carnitine is normally synthesized in the kidneys for body growth and during pregnancy.
L-Carnitine has been placed on the market as a weight loss supplement, but still today we still have no real evidence to support this theory that L-Carnitine removes fat.
The recent studies that have been made, have shown that carnitine can reduce fat levels and increase muscle mass. Both processes contribute to fat mass reduction. Also research has shown that regular supplements have improved energy levels, body movement and has helped combat osteoporosis for elderly people.
