Nowadays, many people suffer from excess weight and do their best to get rid of it and gain a slender figure. Fat burners will help to cope with the problem.

Fat burners are called supplements that are able to normalize and optimize metabolic processes in the body. Among them, L-carnitine is especially popular, around which there are unceasing disputes.

miracle cure
Unlike other fat burners, which often contain hazardous substances, L-carnitine is completely safe. It can be freely bought at any pharmacy. It is also included in the composition of medicines for children. L-carnitine belongs to the amino acids and is very similar to the B vitamins.
L-carnitine speeds up metabolism, which causes a decrease in body fat. It is especially valuable because it removes fat even in problem areas. It transports fatty acids into the mitochondria. In these organelles, lipid burning occurs, during which a lot of heat, water, and energy are released. Therefore, people taking carnitine experience a slight rise in body temperature, resulting in increased sweating.

El-carotene provides an increase in muscle mass, which compares favorably with other similar substances that burn muscle tissue along with fat. In addition, it does not destroy proteins and carbohydrates necessary for the full functioning of the body. It also speeds up metabolism, activates the digestive system, stimulates intestinal motility, improves digestion. Therefore, carnitine not only helps to lose weight, but also has a beneficial effect on the body of people suffering from diseases of the digestive system. But burning fat is accompanied by an increase in appetite. That is why L-carnitine is added to preparations for children.

The drug is also useful for the circulatory system. It provides nutrition to heart cells, strengthens the myocardium, improves the functioning of the cardiovascular system, lowers blood cholesterol levels, preventing the development of cardiovascular diseases, including stroke and heart attack.

L-carnitine:

strengthens the immune system;
normalizes blood sugar levels;
tones the body;
uplifting;
improves attention and memory;
increases endurance;
relieves muscle pain;
develops resistance to stressful situations;
increases the number of spermatozoa;
increases sexual activity.
El-carnitine has no effect on the hormonal background, since it does not belong to hormonal drugs.
The drug is recommended for use with excessive fatigue and lack of energy, with diabetes, as well as diseases of the digestive and circulatory systems. It will also help to quickly restore the liver, which is exposed to the harmful effects of alcohol.

Principles of correct reception
But in order for L-carnitine to have a fat-burning effect, several interacting factors must be present:
there must be a certain amount of this substance in the body;
exact adherence to the diet;
performing a variety of physical exercises.
With insufficient intake of the substance in the body, fat burning will occur very slowly.
If you take L-carnitine correctly, you will soon not only get rid of the fat layer, but also bring your body into tone, which will help you become the owner of an ideal figure.

useless drug
While many people consider L-carnitine to be almost a panacea that helps to effectively get rid of fat stores, opinions can be heard that undermine the myth of the miraculous properties of the drug. Proponents of this view argue that it is useless to introduce L-carnitine into the body from the outside, since it is synthesized in sufficient quantities in the kidneys and liver from lysine and methionine. In addition, with good nutrition, this substance enters the human body together with products containing animal protein. Therefore, additional use of L-carnitine is not necessary.
For several years, studies have been conducted that study the effect of L-carnitine on the process of losing weight. They proved that this substance, introduced from the outside, has no effect on the human body. Therefore, all the stories about the unique properties of L-carnitine are just an advertising ploy. In addition, the advertisement was so successful that many coaches believed it and began to recommend the drug to athletes.

Recent studies have shown that an adult’s body needs 300 milligrams of carnitine per day, and people under the age of 18 will need from 100 to 300 milligrams of this substance. Such the amount of carnitine can be obtained from food. Beef, pork, venison, lamb and rabbit meat are especially rich in this substance. In smaller quantities, it is present in chicken meat, milk, fish and mushrooms. It can also be found in cereals, nuts, vegetables and fruits, but in low concentrations. Therefore, it makes sense to use el-carnitine for vegetarians.

Which view is correct?
Так чем же является L-carnitine: панацеей для похудения или бесполезным препаратом? People involved in the sale of el-carnitine argue that this substance should be consumed by all people who have deviations from normal weight. But doctors say that the drug is required only for people suffering from carnitine deficiency. Such insufficiency can be primary and secondary. Первичная недостаточность developsся в результате генетической патологии, а вторичная может проявляться только в подростков и пожилых людей при недостаточном питании.
From the above, we can conclude that L-carnitine can really help get rid of extra pounds. But it should only be used by people suffering from carnitine deficiency. The rest of the people do not need additional introduction of carnitine into the body, since its excess will not have any effect on the intensity and speed of weight loss.
Side effect
In some cases, the use of the drug may be accompanied by side effects:
nausea;
vomiting;
indigestion;
profuse sweating;
the appearance of the smell of sweat or urine from the mouth;
swelling in the oral cavity and throat area;
rashes;
itching;
difficult breathing;
excessive activity;
insomnia;
incoherence of speech and thinking;
depression
aggressiveness.
Basically, side effects occur when the dosage is not followed or the diet is not correct.
