PRODUCT INFORMATION

  • Promotes healthy cognition in elderly (ref)*
  • Supports energy levels (ref)*
  • Promotes neuron health (ref)*

    Acetyl-L-Carnitine Mode of Action

    The amino acids Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) and L-Carnitine are naturally occurring in the body. The body converts L-Carnitine, ingested from animal meats or synthesized from the amino acids methionine and lysine, into ALCAR and then back to L-carnitine as needed (2).

    ALCAR is a form of L-carnitine that has unique functions which set it apart from L-carnitine. ALCAR is responsible for transporting fatty acids across mitochondrial membranes.

    ALCAR is aimed more towards cognitive health than other forms of L-carnitine (2).

    Vegetarians and vegans who do not eat meat have lower levels of carnitine (2).

    Acetyl-L-Carnitine Dosage

    Pure Nootropics’ Acetyl-L-Carnitine provides 500 mg per 1 capsule. Suggested use for adults is 1 capsule by mouth once daily, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

    Acetyl-L-Carnitine Side Effects

    If you are taking blood-thinning medications (anticoagulants), please consult with your healthcare practitioner before beginning use of ALCAR.

    Some psychological disorders, thyroid disorders, and seizure disorders may be adversely affected by ALCAR. If you have any conditions, or are taking any medications, herbs, or supplements, please consult with your healthcare practitioner before beginning use of ALCAR (1).
