Acetyl-L-Carnitine Details
This product supports the health of the nerves in the upper and lower limbs and enhances the production of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which supports brain function. This product also helps minimize the discomfort due to alterations in nerve function; for example, in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy or individual with high blood sugar.
Acetyl-L-carnitine is better absorbed and crosses the blood-brain barrier more rapidly than L-carnitine. Studies have demonstrated its effectiveness in supporting cognitive health and maintaining a positive mood in the elderly, possibly by partially inhibiting the activity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and lowering chronically elevated cortisol levels, which become elevated during stress. In addition to its support of brain and nerve health, it also promotes healthy sperm count and motility.
