Review on ๐Ÿ’Š L-Carnitine Tartrate 500mg per Capsule (120 Capsules) - Stearate-Free - Non GMO - Gluten-Free by Nick Owens

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Capsules seem small but 500 mg. It is not L-carnitine like L-carnitine tartrate.

These are L-Carnitine Tartrate 500mg Capsules. Not 500 mg L-carnitine, but L-carnitine tartrate, i.e. 750 mg. So when these capsules contain 500mg, they only contain about 335mg of L-Carnitine. The rest is the essential amino acid taurine. If you need 1000 mg of L-Carnitine, you need to take 3 of these capsules. 120 empty capsules of the same size weigh 15 g, 120 of these full capsules weigh 82 g, so each capsule contains approx. 550 mg of L-carnitine tartrate. Surprise. L-carnitine tartrate is hygroscopic and can therefore absorb moisture from the air. The other brand I used comes in the next larger capsule size and contains rice flour and magnesium stearate. L-Carnitine Tartrate Powder has just the right taste. So maybe the capsule filling line doesn't need other ingredients to speed up the process.

Pros
  • Solid Type
Cons
  • No Automatic
