Most fat burners don't really do too much. The best fat burner all around is proper diet and calorie deficit. That said, go to Google and search for "L carnitine body fat NIH" and look for results from the National Institute of Health. They should have some actual studies. This is how I judge whether or not I will take any supp - scientific proof.1

L-Carnitine (and any other "thermogenic/fat burner" you can buy over the counter) is a waste of money: https://examine.com/supplements/l-carnitine/
Rule of thumb for 'fat burner' supplements: If it works, it isn't legal; if it's legal, it doesn't work.2
