Solgar® Acetyl-L-carnitine 250 mg is one of the highest quality products in the Solgar amino acid range. It contains acetyl-L-carnitine , a molecule naturally present in the brain, liver, and kidney.
Acetyl-L-carnitine is a derivative of the amino acid L-carnitine. Amino acids are the fundamental components of proteins and are necessary for many internal functions of the body. It is divided into essential and non essentials". Essential amino acids are those that the body cannot make but must obtain from the diet to maintain good overall health. The body can also use amino acids to create hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters, antibodies, and nutrient transporters. An insufficient supply of essential amino acids increases the body's need for non-essential amino acids that it must obtain through the diet. Foods that increase amino acid intake are meat, beans, cheese, and eggs.
Acetyl-L-carnitine is naturally present in the body, brain, liver, and kidneys. Unlike L-carnitine, acetyl-L-carnitine can cross the blood-brain barrier and participates in the energy metabolism of the brain, helping to transport fatty acids to the mitochondria where they are burned and used for fuel.
Solgar® Acetyl-L-carnitine 250 mg comes in a convenient dose of 1 vegetarian capsule per day.
