Acetyl-l-carnitine is beneficial for:
Are you worried about memory changes and cognition as you age? Supplementing with acetyl-l-carnitine has been shown to diminish mild memory loss and cognitive impairment associated with aging. Acetyl-l-carnitine, often called ALC, has been shown to preserve brain health. It promotes healthy brain functioning and provides antioxidant support, thereby reducing oxidative damage. In animal studies, it has been shown to support nerve health and function. Taking acetyl-l-carnitine early on as a protective nutrient is most effective.*
Just for men: ALC (and l-carnitine) exist in sperm, and thus maintaining healthy ALC levels is important for supporting healthy reproductive functioning. Taking ALC helps support healthy testosterone levels with aging, too.*
ALC has a good safety profile, and it’s been used in dozens of research trials for over 20 years. ALC is similar but different from l-carnitine. Evidence suggests that ALC is more effective for brain and nerve health*.
We offer acetyl-l-carnitine in 500 mg Vegetarian capsules.
Recommended Dosage:
4911 — Take 1 capsule up to six times per day on an empty stomach.
Cautions:
If you are managing chronically low thyroid issues with your practitioner, talk with them before taking ALC. Individuals vary, and it’s beneficial for some with thyroid issues.
