For congestive heart failure, much of the research has used carnitine. In one double blind trial, using 500 mg L-Carnitine per day led to a 26% increase in exercise capacity after six months.

Research shows that individuals who supplement with carnitine while engaging in an exercise regimen are less likely to experience muscle soreness there is also evidence that L-carnitine’s effect on energy release will help build muscle or improve athletic performance.
