Talk:Carnitine

Suggestion
Combine the "L-Carnitine" and "Acetyl-Carnitine" into the "Carnitine" page. There really needs to be only one page, not three.

The L-carnitine and acetyl-carnitine pages have now been integrated into this page.

Those 2 pages are now redirects to this page.

National variation?
One of these papers explicitly cites national variation in carnitine levels in controls (Kuratsune 1998: "Both serum ACR and free carnitine (FCR) levels in normal healthy subjects were quite different between Japanese (n=131) and Swedish people (n=46) (p<0.001).") and other conflicting findings came from research carried out in different in still other countries (US, Netherlands, etc.) It may be worth examining these papers more closely to see whether national difference should be discussed here.
