Carnitine Tartrate - Should you be taking it?
I've been doing a lot of reading on carnitine tartrate. It has many excellent properties. It increases fat metabolism, increases energy production, elevates mood and the big bonus for guys: it increases the androgen receptors sensitivity to testosterone so that testosterone becomes more potent.

Here's what WebMD says about Carnitine tartrate:L-carnitine is LIKELY SAFE for most people when taken by mouth. It can cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, heartburn, diarrhea, and seizures. It can also cause the urine, breath, and sweat to have a “fishy” odor.
In my opinion it is unlikely to cause seizures if used as less than 2gm per day orally. I would not recommend to anyone with a past history of seizures.
I mix 2gm in my post workout shake to help burn fat and increase the sensitivity of my androgen receptors.
But as with all supplements, please check with your personal health care provider to see if carnitine would be safe for you.
