Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) - what is it?

Acetyl-L-carnitine ( ALCAR or ALC ) is the acetylated form of L-carnitine. It is produced naturally by the human body. It can also be delivered to the body in the form of daily supplements.

L-carnitine is an organic chemical compound synthesized in the body from two amino acids - lysine and methionine. For the first time, carnitine was isolated from muscle (Latin: caro, carnis ), which gave it its name. The main source of L-carnitine in a properly balanced diet can be red meat, including lamb, beef and pork, milk and milk products and fish.

The recommended daily dose of the preparation is 1-3 capsules. The package contains 200 capsules, which is enough for one person for up to 200 days (over 6 months) of daily supplementation as recommended.
