Definitely important to mention L-carnitine metabolites considering their concerning effects. Intestinal microbiota metabolism of l-carnitine is shown to produce TMAO and to accelerate atherosclerosis, heart disease, and cancer. Gotta be responsible with the reporting and not only share the potential positive effects of supplementation

@johnmayneson9539 Жыл бұрын

This is assuming tmao is dangerous. The research is rather shaky if tmao does cause any of those effects. It’s only been shown that some people with cancer had higher tmao levels, is that causative? Who knows but considering our bodies make tmao in the gut I pose the questions why our bodies would make something that allegedly does so much damage…?

L-Carnitines, similiar to creatines benefits fade away once usage is stopped and as creatine, does not require on-off cycling. Bioavailability of L-Carnitine taken orally is about 10% so its recommended to take anywhere from 2 grams up to 7 grams as it is very heavily tolerated and has no adverse effects. You can also get doctor prescribed L-Carnitine via intramusscular injection where bioavailability is 100% so the injected dose is usually anywhere from 200mgs up to 2 grams according to Dr. Kyle Gillett

@larsnystrom6698 Жыл бұрын

@5kribbles A very short scan of research confirmed your concerns, and gave me this story: The gut microbiome converts L-Carnitine into TMAO, which causes arteriosclerosis. Berberine counteracts that effect of the gut mucrobiome. And yes, the research seems to indicate that it's not just an accociation between TMAO and arteriosclerosis. It's actually causative. The increase of TMAO with L-Carnitine was very robust. The research on Berberine was with Coline induced TMAO, not L-Carnitine. I don't know if it's the same bacteria. So if it works for L-Carnitine too is yet unknown.

Acetyl-L carnitine over L carnitine. More focus means more productivity and movement which in turn means better performance for me. I prefer raw honey, royal jelly, raw garlic, raw onions and beets for workouts, testosterone, nitric oxide among other benefits.
