It was L-Carnitine pills from the Danish brand Bodylab - I can dig up the batch number if needed. Unless you're in Denmark (or perhaps Scandinavia) you're probably not buying from that supplier - though I would guess a lot of other suppliers are probably getting the same pills, but I obviously don't know who.

Turned out in the NADA's investigation that contrary to what is claimed or strongly hinted on the supplier's site the ingredients for the pills are from China - hence why a lot of other suppliers probably use the same raw material as I doubt Bodylab is the only customer of that Chinese manufacturer.

Yes, that's the one.

No, my team had a brief talk with a lawyer, who said that monetery loss would be hard to prove and so didn't want to pursue it. I was under the impression that the NADA would take it up with the national food administration, but I have yet to hear anything and judging by the fact that it's still available my guess would be nothing has happened. Doesn't really surprise me as it's basically the same in all aspects of cycling I've been involved in nationally - lots of talks, little to no action. No Tygart here. So either I have to throw money and time against this million-dollar corporation myself or I throw my money and time at getting faster on the bike - and at my medical engineering job, where, you know, we're actually held accountable for what we do.
