Anyone know anything about l-carnitine?

[AMGETR]

I was having dinner with a MD friend of mine, and we were discussing gear and so on. He was telling me about a regular "drug" called l-carnitine that helps give energy to work outs like gear does, but without the side effects.

He also gave me a prescription for hcg. hahahaha

Anyone know anything about this herb/drug/supplement?

It's a supplement that was overhyped 10 years back or so, and is making an overhyped comebcak now to some degree.

L-carnitine plays a powerful role in the process of sperm formation, sperm maturation, and the maintenance of sperm quality. L-carnitine is particularly vital in both the development and maturation of sperm in the testes, in the development of the sperm membrane, and in the metabolic processes as an energy source following ejaculation.

Healthy sperm are defined not just by count, but also by sperm motility and by healthy morphology (sperm shape and size and the integrity of sperm membrane). Sperm motility is determined by the percentage of sperm that are moving and qualified by the sperm’s capacity to "swim" in a sustained, forward direction. Healthy sperm motility is the critical attribute that allows sperm to propel themselves through the uterus to the fallopian tube, penetrate the surface of the ovum, and fertilize the egg.

Carnitine, or L-carnitine, is a naturally occurring substance found in most cells of the body, particularly the brain and neural tissues, muscles, and heart. Carnitine, whose structure is similar to choline, is widely available in animal foods (meat, poultry, fish and dairy products), whereas plants have very small amounts. Most non-vegetarians consume about 100 to 300 mg of carnitine a day, and the body is able to synthesize this nutrient if dietary intake is inadequate. When ingested as a pill, carnitine is not able to cross the blood-brain barrier as well as its activated form Acetyl-L-Carnitine. Acetyl-l-carnitine has a significantly more noticeable effect on the mind than carnitine. Acetyl-l-carnitine usually enhances mental clarity and focus, along with slight mood elevation. The effects of carnitine are more physicial than mental, in the sense that carnitine may provide physical energy whereas acetyl-l-carnitine provides more mental energy.

Another thing not mentioned about Acetyl-L-Carnitine is that for fat to be burned in the mitochondria(muscle cells),it has to be taken out of the fat cells into the muscle cells(mitochondria).It can only do this with the help of ALC.The reaon why MCT oil is so good at helping with fat loss,is because it is the only fat that doesn't require ALC to get into the muscle.It can do this all by itself.

Dr. RADAR

Nice read! I guess if you don't eat much meat, or any at all, you will need to supplement with it, and a lot of other things I'm sure. I personally just think it has been way overyped as a great fat burner, which is usually how it is marketed. I think that supps containing Ephedra, Caffeine, Yohimbine and things of the like would overpower any effect one might get from L-Carnitine or many of the other other ingredients found in fat burning stacks. Not saying all other ingredients are completely useless, but E,C,A, and Y, are the bread and butter of any fat burning product.

So Dr. RADAR, I was wondering about getting a few scripts from you...

what do you guys think about injectable l-carnitine

 

[UFC22]

its a bunch of bull so a great professor says.
