Review on Natures Bounty® L Carnitine 500 Tablets by Katie Ortiz

I originally bought this to naturally lower my resting heart rate. I am 55 years old and have low to normal blood pressure, but my resting heart rate has always been above 100-120. Of course it's bad for your heart and my doctor prescribed me metoprolol and warned me not to take it if my blood pressure is too low as it lowers your blood pressure too. Well after 4-6 weeks I still couldn't take it. When I went to bed in the iWatch my heart rate jumped to 170 beats per minute while I was sleeping. This scared me enough that I started researching what could lower my heart rate without lowering my blood pressure. L-carnitine! I ordered it and within 3-4 hours it worked. My resting heart rate was between 78-95 during the day. Big difference and it didn't lower my blood pressure. However, this lasted less than 24 hours and my pulse was 120-130 beats per minute every morning. So now I take it twice a day. 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. (500 mg each) It works! After 3 weeks, my heart rate was normal 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, only increasing during exercise and returning to normal within 10-15 minutes, and my blood sugar level also dropped (I have type 2 diabetes ). Added bonus, I have more energy and from someone who slept every day - I've only slept once in the last 3 weeks, I'm sleeping better through the night and have lost weight! I've lost almost 15 pounds in the last 3 weeks and I feel great! I bought this for my sister who has a high resting heart rate and type 2 diabetes and the same thing: she is losing weight, has more energy, normal resting heart rate and her blood sugar has dropped. An added bonus, it really helps reduce belly fat! I love seeing my tummy flatten out again.
