What is Acetyl-L-Carnitine?
Acetyl-L-Carnitine is also known as ALCAR. Acetyl-L-Carnitine is a dipeptide amino acid, and is more bio-available and stable compared to L-Carnitine. L-Carnitine is a derivative of the amino acid, Lysine. Its name is taken from the fact that it was first isolated from meat (carnus) in 1905. Only the L-isomer of Carnitine is biologically active.
What does Acetyl-L-Carnitine do?
In basic terms Acetyl-L-Carnitine helps the body produce energy. It plays a vital role in the metabolism of fat and works as a vehicle transporting fatty acids into the mitochondria, the engine of the cell. Acetyl-L-Carnitine is made in the kidneys and liver and then stored in the muscles, brain and heart.
