L-Carnitine

L-carnitine is a nutrient widely available in supplement form and often marketed as a weight loss aid. Made naturally in the body, L-carnitine is essential for transporting fat into cells to produce energy. While many supplement manufacturers claim that L-carnitine can speed up metabolism, there is little scientific support for L-carnitine’s ability to promote weight loss. Carnitine is hygroscopic, so it is suitable for all kinds of liquid applications.
