Yes. Take the ALCAR and PLCAR at separate times of day (morning, night) if possible.

Out of curiosity, why is that?

There is some evidence in CFS patients that they competitively inhibit one another, possibly for absorption.

Yes to LCLT. GPLC is fairly redundant with PLCAR

Hey Cooper, can I ask what your dosing schedule looks like for l-carnitine (PLC, ALCAR, LCLT...)? You always seem to have some great info/knowledge and I was just wondering how you apply this knowledge to your daily fight. Thanks!
I know there has been plenty of discussion concerning this topic on other threads, but I don't remember seeing anything about the different forms of L-carnitine possibly competing for absorption.
I've been dosing 1g of each (plc, alcar, lclt) empty stomach, morning. Then 2g each, empty stomach pre-workout.

From what he said in another thread, dose them separately. I'm not sure how far apart but I would think at least a 4 hours spaced out should do it.

OK so recently I've changed up my dosing schedule to look like this:
About 1.7g ALCAR pre breakfast.
Then 2-3 grams each of LCLT and PLCAR pre-workout.
Then another 1.7g ALCAR pre dinner.
All taken on empty stomach.
I'm not sure if I have the dosing dialed in perfectly but I'm liking the results thus far.
