    I've read about carnitine upregulating the AR but the magnitude of effect appears to be minimal and non significant.

    Didn't know this.
    I use lots of carnitine.

    The bioavailability of carnitine supplements in the dosage range of 1-6g appears to range from 14-18%, which is lower than the bioavailability from lower doses via food products (54-87%)[54][3] and applies to L-carnitine and ALCAR,[3] thought to also extend to Propionyl-L-Carnitine.[55]"

    Interesting, so that much goes into the toilet.
    Had a feeling about that, as two days ago I overdosed on carnitine before going to the gym. Had to run to be toilet after the workout and punished it severely.

    Small doses spread over the day makes more sense.
