Acetyl-L-Carnitine in short
Known as a virile Amino Acid that we absorb through certain animalistic products such as beef, the supplement is recommended for vegans or vegetarians. It is also beneficial amongst seniors, pregnant women, or those who want to improve their general health. More commonly called L-Carnitine, the Amino Acid is engaged in the body in many different aspects. It partakes in the cognitive process, the metabolic system, and the cardiovascular system just to name a few. The body produces the substance on a small scale by itself from Lysine and Methionine with the help of Vitamin C-dependent enzymes. But three-quarters of the body’s Carnitine is added in its completed form through meat products, more specifically beef. Our product is 100% vegan and synthesized in a laboratory. |

Why we recommend Acetyl-L-CarnitineDespite its uncommon and convoluted name, the advantages of Acetyl-L-Carnitine are as obvious as the sun. The advantages of increasing L-Carnitine levels in the body and thereby lowering fatigue and poor memory are intriguing, to say the least. There is also a correlation between diminished insulin sensitivity and an increase in the body's capacity to regulate blood sugar levels. Furthermore, Acetyl-L-Carnitine has also been studied for its ability to improve fertility among men by enhancing sperm quality and the ability to decrease levels of ammonia in the liver. |
