I am not going to write a lot about what L-Carnitine does to me because people react differently to dietary supplements. Speaking for myself only, I do seem to respond to taking on tablespoon prior to my near-daily few miles run on the treadmill. For the 'science' there is good Wikipedia article discussing its positive effects as an antioxidant, on weight loss, aging, diabetes, heart, kidneys and so forth. WebMD states that "L-carnitine helps the body produce energy. It is important for heart and brain function, muscle movement and many other body processes."

It's probably worth mentioning that the product does not contain a number of ingredients we can all do without. There is no sugar, salt, starch, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, milk, egg, shellfish, or artificial colors/flavors and the makers claim that it qualifies as a vegetarian/vegan product.

On the positive side, besides the 3000 mg of L-Carnitine (Carnipure), each serving (tablespoon) contains over... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Liquid calorie burner in a bottle!, August 26, 2008

Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I have researched and read multiple articles about the benefits of taking L-Carnitine prior to a workout. You experience a bigger calorie burn when you take it prior and this an excellent product because in its liquid form will work immediately and you do not have to take it 30 minutes before your workout like a pill form. I take a Tbs prior to every workout and have noticed an increased weight loss and increased calorie burn. The most recent study was published in Muscle & Fitness Hers magazine in the July edition, check it out if you get a chance, it also encourages stacking this with caffeine anhydrous for a higher fat burning duo.

4.0 out of 5 stars I was recommended this..., February 10, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I notice some energy boost but was told that it would speed up the metabolism more while dieting and working out. Didn't notice any huge difference but I think it had something to do with my 25 lbs lost. But still recommend dieting and exercise while taking it.

    This review is from: Natural Balance Vegetarian Formula Dog Food, 28-Pound Bag (Misc.)
    My boxer-mix has suffered terribly with allergies. Constant yeast infections in his ears, skin problems, general stinky dog problems. After taking him to the vet for like the 100th time for steroids and a super-duper ear washing at the cost of $278, I finally decided to research a better solution. I found that my dog could be allergic to corn or chicken and it would be best to cut that out of his food all together. I found this brand at Petco and ever since we went to this vegetarian formula he has been *basically* allergy free!! He's like a whole different dog!!! Clear eyes, clear skin, lost a bunch of weight, runs around with his brother like they were puppies all over again, doesn't smell and hasn't needed to go back to the vet for his ears!!! My doggy loves this food and I love that he's finally healthy.

    5.0 out of 5 stars My Vegetarian Dogs., August 23, 2011
    This review is from: Natural Balance Vegetarian Formula Dog Food, 28-Pound Bag (Misc.)
    Being that I am a vegetarian I was having a hard time feeding my dogs Blue Buffalo Chicken kibble. I just could not do it anymore from a moral and ethical standpoint so I started to research 'Vegetarian Dogs' like crazy. Came to find out most dogs who convert to a vegetarian diet thrive on it and I can honestly say this is true. My dogs are ages 2ish,7 and 11ish, all adopted, all Chihuahuas and all came with their own issues. The one thing we all agree on is that Natural Balance Vegetarian Formula is the best. My oldest dog has seriously just thrived off this food, she is so energetic and happy. My other 2 love it and their coats look so shiny and their nasty dog breath has gone away.
    I know my decision was one that many people will criticize and say is 'selfish' and 'wrong' but the bottom line is I did my research, spoke with the people at Natural Balance, told my vet and in the process found out that the worlds oldest living dog was/is 26 and is a vegetarian. So needless to... Read more

    3.0 out of 5 stars Not for all dogs, September 26, 2011
    This review is from: Natural Balance Vegetarian Formula Dog Food, 28-Pound Bag (Misc.)
    My wife and I are vegetarian, and after a lot of research decided to start feeding our dog this kibble. Afterall, dogs can clearly survive on vegan diets, as long as they are nutritionally balanced. The whole time she appeared fine, and there were no issues with lethargy, or fur. However, after a few months she started having uncontrolable diharrea, and loads of gas. After a lot of vet bills and testing we were left with the suggestion to try a different food.

    So we did a 180 degree turn, and bought a no-grain high-protein food ( Blue Buffalo Wilderness Grain Free Dry Dog Food, Duck Recipe, 24-Pound Bag). The bottom line, is that now she seems to be doing much better. At the end of the day we never figured out what it was about the veggie food that upset her bowels, but changing food solved the problem. We are not super... Read more
