*Courtesy of Natural Health Solutions for PCOS*

The most popular nutritional supplements by far for PCOS are the d-pinitol formula, vitex (chasteberry), and saw palmetto.

The other specialized supplements in our online store are often overlooked, such as L-carnitine. L-carnitine is a vitamin-like substance that perform important functions in your body.

Why would L-carnitine be important to you?

1) Women with PCOS appear to have lower carnitine levels than other women. The decreased carnitine appears to be associated with insulin resistance and high levels of male hormones such as testosterone.

2) Helps the body convert fat into energy

3) May help you deal with hair loss

4) May reduce your risk of osteoporosis if you are menopausal or have had your ovaries removed.

5) Helps to reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease
