Acetyl L-Carnitine also commonly referred to as ALCAR and ALC is one of the most extensively studied amino acids and has been reported as being more superior to simply supplementing with only the L-Carnitine form. ALC has been found to have significant cognitive and anti-aging effects and can be effective in improving memory, mood, response to stress and help your body metabolise fat by using stored fat for energy.

Acetyl L-Carnitine is an important amino acid produced naturally by the body. It assists with exercise by producing energy, and also acts as a powerful antioxidant. Energy is produced by Carnitine transporting long chain fatty acids (LCFA) to mitochondria where they are burned as fuel, allowing intense exercise and the creation of a more defined physique.
The major benefit of Carnitine combined with exercise and weight training is the capacity of Acetyl L-Carnitine to utilise the body's stored fat. For this reason it is extremely popular with those wanting to lose weight yet retain muscle. Fatty acids are oxidised for the synthesis of cellular energy, enabling sustained exercise and muscle building. Acetyl L-Carnitine also slows mitochondrial decay which is a significant cause of ageing, while assisting with improved cognitive function.
The nutritional effects of Acetyl L-Carnitine are well known, such as healthy cell membrane integrity and antioxidant protection, all while supporting optimum physiology and function.
