Acetyl l carnitine supplement for fibromyalgia

At the University of Verona in Italy. patients with fibromyalgia took

3 capsules daily containing 500 mg acetyl l carnitine and were

compared to a group receiving placebo. The number of positive tender

points declined significantly and equally in both groups until the 6th

week of treatment. At the 10th week pain remained unchanged in the

placebo group but continued to decline in the acetyl l carnitine

group. Those taking the supplements were less depressed and had less

musculoskeletal pain. The researchers say, " These results indicate

that acetyl l carnitine may be of benefit in patients with

fibromyalgia, providing improvement in pain as well as the general and

mental health of these patients. "
