What the Label Data Shows

With 16 ingredients on the label, L-Carnitine Complex is one of the more extensive botanical with nutrients supplement formulas from GNC Total Lean in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD), sold in tablet or pill form. These ingredients span 6 nutrient categories, other, botanical, mineral, vitamin, and 2 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 16-ingredient formula, 16 of 16 carry no FDA reference-intake value, typical for a formula this size: larger blends tend to pull in botanicals, amino acids, and specialty compounds without an assigned Daily Value. Breadth like this isn't a red flag by itself.

Market status matters for supplement research. This product is currently listed as off-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2014-08-26. An off-market listing means production and distribution under this label have stopped, but the DSLD does not delete the entry, it stays on file for historical reference and formulation-history tracking.
