Quick Overview

TORQ Carnitine is 100% pure L-Carnitine. This amino acid-like substance naturally present in meat (particularly red meat), but not available through vegetable sources, so supplementation with this product perhaps has particular relevance to Vegetarians and Vegans?
Research suggests that a 1-4 gram daily dose of L-Carnitine increases the maximum use of oxygen (V02 max) and increases endurance (time to fatigue). This is all linked to L-Carnitine mobilizing more fat - making it more available as a fuel.
It seems clear that Carnitine is most effective when taken long-term. If you have an important competition that you would like to peak for, you should start taking this supplement at least 3 weeks beforehand. Some studies have even demonstrated an increase in muscle strength in endurance athletes as a result of taking Carnitine. Ed Burke theorises that this may be due to the fact that the increased fat-burning somehow reduces the breakdown of muscle as a fuel during exercise. This further suggests that long-term consumption of Carnitine would be the best overall policy to adopt.
