L-CARNATINE TIMING

[AnthonyIOSOS]

The bottle reads take with food, but several people are taking on empty stomach and pre workout. I have been taking with breakfast (1 hr prior to workout) and with dinner.

Is my timing correct? Is it necessary to take on empty stomach? This is a new supplement for me and any help is appreciated.

I dose ALCAR on an empty stomach, and post meals.

Insulin helps promote its uptake into muscle cells (which is otherwise pretty poor) so it would be a good idea to take it with carbs or during refeeds.

Is taking before bed a must?

Not a must, but I always did. Isn't it nasty tasting? bleh I loathed taking it

Imagine lemon rind plus bile flavor, and you're 75% there!

I take it with Piracetam empty stomach b4 breakfast. Makes Piracetam taste good, little salty.
