Liquid Carnitine for Weight Loss

When you're looking to lose weight, get rid of excess body fat, increase your metabolism and boost your overall energy levels, Carnitine is an ideal supplement to help. It's a naturally occurring compound and works within your body's cells to burn up fat, protect your vital organs, improve body and cell functions and get you the energy you need to get up and go.

How it Works

    The website wellsphere.com lists a number of articles that discuss and review Carnitine and what it can do for weight loss. Carnitine has levocarnitine (also known as L-carnitine Tartrate). It's a great compound; it's not toxic, has no risk factors and is therefore safe for use as a weight loss enhancement. It is able to accomplish this by its impact on fat--it boosts the body's metabolic rate and also converts fat stored in your body into energy. Added bonuses: It also stops fat from building up in organs like the heart and liver; it improves the function of both the heart and liver; and it boosts your overall energy levels. Thus, fat is burned up more quickly and effectively.

    The site recommends taking three to six 500mg capsules each day, one hour before you do any exercises. Be sure to check with your doctor before taking this supplement, and ask about a proper diet and exercise program to help enhance the effect of the Carnitine.

Taking it in Pure Liquid Form

    The website completehealth.com.au (an Australian-based web site) recommends taking Carnitine in a pure liquid form and gives more details about how it breaks down fats: Fat is used at the mitochondrial membrane (a sub-structure within each cell of your body responsible for energy production) to create energy. By raising the level of L-carnitine around the mitochondria, more fat is burned up in the cell. The website suggests taking from 5 to 15 ml of the liquid Carnitine each day, but only for adults. Before giving to children speak to their pediatrician.

    The website mentions diarrhea and "fish odor" syndrome as potential negative side effects. If these appear and persist, check with your doctor to see if you should stop taking the supplement, or at least reduce your daily dose.
