It is worth noting that L-Carnitine in supplements can increase blood levels of trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) over time, high levels of which are associated with a risk of atherosclerosis (clogging of the arteries)
However, this doesnt necessarily translate to an oral supplement being effective against stomach ulcers in humans ( Test-tube studies like these typically involve highly concentrated extracts being applied directly to bacterial cells, which isnt how oral chanca piedra supplements would work
When stool stays in the intestines longer, it becomes harder and drier, making it more difficult to pass
Carnitine can also play an important role in the prevention of certain illnesses, and its intake has been associated with a reduction in the risk of developing certain cardiovascular diseases, such as hypertension, heart attack and stroke, due to its ability to improve vascular health and reduce blood cholesterol levels, and it also plays a protective role against the development of certain neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, due to its ability to protect nerve cells from oxidative stress
