Caffeine can boost energy, improve workout performance, and temporarily increase calorie expenditure. Just don’t overdo it, or you’ll crash hard.

L-Carnitine helps the body turn fat into energy, especially during workouts. It works best when you’re already active and eating clean.

Some small studies suggest ACV may reduce appetite and help regulate blood sugar. Take it diluted in water, use a straw, and don’t expect miracles overnight.

CLA is a fatty acid that may help reduce body fat over time. It’s found in meat and dairy, but also as a supplement. Results are slow but steady.

Most of these can be safely combined, but always check for possible interactions, especially if you have health conditions or take other meds.

If your diet is poor and you barely move, even the best supplement won’t help; think of these as a support tool, not a solution.

Caffeine or green tea extracts are best before workouts. ACV? Before meals & L-Carnitine works well on an empty stomach; timing matters more than people think.
