AOR's ALCAR is N-acetyl-L-carnitine, a form of L-carnitine used for energy production. Extensive research has demonstrated ALCAR's ability to improve mitochondrial function, sperm production, and energy production. ALCAR is effective because it crosses the blood-brain barrier more easily than L-carnitine. Research has shown that ALCAR can reduce symptoms of mild cognitive impairment by improving memory, attention, mood, and other cognitive functions. More interestingly, ALCAR's positive effects on cognition appear to persist for weeks, even after stopping short-term supplementation.
ALCAR can also increase L-carnitine levels in people who are deficient due to factors such as certain medications, illness, a strict vegetarian diet, and heart or circulatory disorders. L-carnitine is valued for optimal athletic performance and endurance as it promotes energy production and helps burn fat.
ALCAR is beneficial for people of all ages and backgrounds, and is a worthwhile investment in cognitive health, with established and long-lasting benefits for those seeking additional support for memory, metabolism, and general health.
AOR's Acetyl L-Carnitine offers improved bioavailability as it is able to cross the blood-brain barrier and neuron membranes much more easily than conventional L-Carnitine. This ester provides several other cognitive benefits not found in regular L-Carnitine.
