L-Carnitine: An Evidence Check
L-Carnitine sounds like a fat burner because of what your body does with it. The supplement evidence is more modest.
What it does in the body
Your body makes L-Carnitine and uses it to move fatty acids into cells to be used for energy.
Why that doesn’t equal weight loss
Your body already makes enough for most people, so extra supplements do not automatically burn more fat.
What studies show
Research on L-Carnitine for weight is limited, with small and inconsistent effects in some analyses.
Side effects
Some people get stomach upset or nausea. Talk to a doctor if you have a medical condition or take medication.
