I've been looking at L-Carnitine supplementation. I'm planning on taking this, but I am not too sure on how much or the dosage times.

I've done research on this, and have an idea on supplementing with this, but I would just like to see if any of our forumers are currently/ or have previously supplemented with carnitine.

If so, what are the dosages you took and how were the effects?

Thx.

Some read up on Carnitine:

Will update on progress in future.

it said 5-7 days loading of 20gram.

after that is 5gram for the rest of the cycle.

1 cycle i 1 month.

after that take 1 month off n the next month back again.

carnitine and creatine are two different things.

been using this for a few months now.(cycling on for 3 weeks, off 1 week)

I take about 500mg only preworkout(1 tablet). Fat burning effect is there, but my experience is more towards growth.

It really helps you grow muscle and lose bf at the same time.

I wouldda had a better fat loss if I had taken more than 500g per day, but i kept thinking twice about taking 4 tablets cos this stuff aint exactly cheap..

o.O u took 500g?? from wikipedia i read it is saying 2g to 200g ... blink.gif

By the way, wat brand are u taking?

My bad, I took 500MG..heh

Optimum Nutrition L-Carnitine 500tabs.
Its the best value for money L-carnitine supplement we can get.

Dont even look at GNC's liquid carnitine or the ones sold at pharmacies, way overpriced.

Icic, i just check ard its ard rm120+ for 60caps with 500mg each cap, i think but vasocharge seems to have those element for 20 servings and each service has 2g of l-carnitine.

vasocharge, hmm.. 2g is a very sufficient amount.

how much would a 20serving tub cost?
