    Since many have asked...
    L-Carnitine
    This is the same form of carnitine that’s produced by your body.
    Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALCAR)
    This form of L-carnitine has gone through a chemical process known as “acetylation,” which allows it to pass the brain barrier.
    L-Carnitine L-Tartrate (LCLT)
    This form of L-carnitine is bound to tartaric acid to help improve absorption.
    Glycine Propionyl L-Carnitine (GPLC)
    This form of L-carnitine is bound to the amino acid glycine, and research shows it exerts antioxidant effects in the body and may be able to enhance blood flow while exercising.

  • @sunilgandhi6272
    @sunilgandhi6272 2 дня назад

    This was a brilliant video and appeared just as I was looking for information on Carnitine. Here are some results of N=1 experiment. I have been on a low calorie diet (low calories during the week and higher calories at the weekend, but still maintaining a calorie deficit, with occasional surpluses every few weeks). I also work out very hard. I found my fat loss stopped, and at the same time, I felt severe lack of energy. (Very severe, unable to operate), with this occurring over several months, I added 500mg of acetyl l-carnitine, and immediately noticed a temporay difference (lasting a few hours). I then increased the dose staggering it voer time to 1000mg, and so on with energy being sustained during the entire day. I have not yet looked at weight or fat loss. Happy to udate when I get results.

      another very stinky to rooten egg is lipoic acid. one of these youtubers claimed that it's good against grey hair, and sure obviously they never gave a try by themselves, just mentioned the theory, like parrots on their talk show. i did, i placed the lipoic acid on my scalp. what a horror. and my head stink for 4 days, i washed dozen times and couldn't get rid of the nasty smell. awful. i don't think L-carnitine has anything to offer more than eating the real normal cow meat. carne means meat in spanish, i should have figure it out before buying the kilogram. in my experience of 560 days using it, it gets easily dirty from the spoon used on other supplements, so it gets contaminated easier than average. i get the 5 grams spoon as fast as i can, in a hurry to close the container. the brand i use is the german BULK. i experienced no rejuvenation whatsoever after the 560 days (since black friday's 2022) i am 46 and i look 46. but 1/3 of my income more poor because these 300 mililitres of dry supplements are just blind fool faith hope and not a measurable fact, otherwise i would look like a boy.

    I was a huge supplement fanatic past 10 years until I started eating mindfully, and that alone reduced my visceral belly fat by 60%, reversed my grade 2 fatty liver to normal, reduced my LDL cholesterol by 80%, and my body weight by 90 pounds. And I was still eating carbs and exercising moderately. I just ate 60% of my appetite everytime , time and again, for days, weeks, months.
    No fasting, No fancy diet like Keto or carnivore, No fancy supplements, No over excersising.......just "mindfully eating in time regulated manner".
