Betty04 Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Hi, I am considering trying L-Carnitine for my son's vocal since many posts have stated success. I wanted to understand why it is helpful for tics and why it may be more helpful for vocal and not motor tics? Anyone have an understanding of the possible mechanism? Thanks!
Chemar Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 it's an amino acid why it helps some people for tics and why specifically vocal is not scientifically documented as far as I know here is iHerb's Health Enclyclopedia Info on Carnitine
powerofprayer Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Is it just the L-Carnitine or the Acetyl L-Carnitine that can be beneficial for vocals?? Is this the same amino that is suggested for eye tics as well??
Chemar Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 most prefer the L-carnitine as some react to the acetyl...but we have also had members here report the opposite...so again, as with all supplements, it is trial and error
