I did a search on the forum and some online research and haven't been able to find any studies that link L-Carnitine to fat loss. If anyone knows of any and can provide a link to share that would be awesome!
LCARNITINE
Good book I'm reading. I bought it from a site that sells used libaray books. I think I paid $5 for the book and s/h:

I saw what I mean and I do what I say
L-Carnitine is a vitamin-like nutrient that occurs naturally in the body. Recently, it has been touted as an aid to fat reduction and weight loss.
Sellers of L-carnitine claim that carnitine helps to burn off fat by moving it into cells called mitochondria. Once fat is inside the mitochondria, it is magically transformed into energy. According to L-Carnitine marketeers carnitine both encourages weight loss and increases energy levels.......
Hope this helps on your question Jrod...Thats what I call my brother in law by the way His Name is Jerrod.

Thanks all! What I'm looking for really are peer reviewed double-blind studies. The link shaggy provided talks about a few such studies and unfortuneatly none of them show any benefits to L-Carnitine Sup. They also didn't test for fat loss, just cardio output, so they also may not be relevant to what we are using it for.
Unfortuneatly for us peer-reviewed double-blind studies are hard to come by in the world of suppliments, but I was wondering if anyone was aware of some testing for fat loss that I couldn't find.

just try it and see for yourself...its cheap enuff! I've heard nothing but good things about it, about everywhere I look there is an article in a magazine suggest'n that it should be used as part of a cutting cycle for fat loss.
