Natural Factors Acetyl-L-Carnitine delivers 500 mg of acetyl-L-carnitine per vegetarian capsule. Helps reduce fatigue.
What is acetyl-L-carnitine?
Carnitine is a compound the body makes from the amino acids lysine and methionine, and it is also supplied by red meat and dairy. Its job is to shuttle fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are burned for energy. Acetyl-L-carnitine is carnitine with an acetyl group attached. That small change lets the molecule pass from the bloodstream into the brain. In this product it is supplied as N-acetyl L-carnitine hydrochloride.

Why the acetyl form?
Plain L-carnitine is mostly taken up by muscle. The acetylated form is a different molecule with a different distribution in the body, which is why it is sold as a separate supplement.
Dosage: 2 capsules 2 times daily with meals or as directed by a health care practitioner.
Cautions: Feelings of overstimulation and/or sleeplessness may occur; discontinue use if feelings persist or worsen. Consult a health care practitioner if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you have been instructed to follow a low protein diet, or if you have a pre-existing seizure disorder, liver or kidney disease. Keep out of reach of children.
I started to take supplement several days ago. It is too soon to gauge
its effectiveness . Since all the products I bought from VitaSave were of
good quality and effective I believe this product falls in the same category.
