Robertf according to my reader's digest vitamins and mineral
book it seems that all amino acids (which L-carnitine is) are
strictly regulated, it also says L-carnitine can only be bought
by a doctors prescription.
Ordering it on-line may not be such a wise idea, according
to the GNC people I spoke in the US awhile back, it is a hit
and miss thing with Canadian Customs a small amount may
get through, and If it doesn't you are out your $$. That's why
they wouldn't ship here.
