Jarrow Formulations Jarrow Acetyl L-Carnitine 500mg (60 caps) (60 Capsules)

Acetyl-L-Carnitine is a more bioavailable form of the amino acid L-Carnitine and is involved in many metabolic functions. As an antioxidant, acetyl carnitine can protect neurons from damage caused by superoxide radicals. Acetyl carnitine is involved in other aspects of neuronal metabolism and its molecular structure resembles the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Also, acetyl carnitine supplementation supports energy utilization through fatty acid metabolism in the mitochondria. There are many benefits of L-Carnitine:

• Important in energy production.
• Helps in weight loss and burning fat.
• Transports long-chain fatty acids into mitochondra to metabolize to generate energy.
• Enhance cellular energy in the brain.
• Improves mental performance.
• Helps slow the effects of aging.
• Decreases symptoms of depression.
• Helps prevent cataracts.

One of the main roles of Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALC) is to carry fatty acids from the cytosol (the main body of the cell) into the mitochondria (the energy-producing furnaces within cells) so that these fats can be oxidised for energy. Although L-carnitine carries out this role too, acetyl L-carnitine (ALC) also provides acetyl groups, from which acetyl-coenzyme A (a key metabolic intermediate) can be regenerated, thereby facilitating the transport of metabolic energy and boosting mitochondrial activity.
