Acetyl Carnitine
Acetyl-L-carnitine is made in the body from L-carnitine. L-Carnitine and Acetyl-L-Carnitine are used to help the body convert fat into energy.
What is acetyl carnitine good for?
Acetyl-L-carnitine is important for many bodily processes. L-Carnitine is made in the human brain, liver, and kidneys. The body can convert L-carnitine to acetyl L-carnitine and vice versa. It is not clear whether the effects of acetyl-L-carnitine are due to the chemical itself, to the L-carnitine it can produce, or to another chemical.
Acetyl-L-carnitine is sometimes used for Alzheimer’s disease, improving memory and thinking skills, treating symptoms of depression, and relieving neuralgia in diabetics. There is not enough scientific evidence to support many of these uses.
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Alpha-lipoic acid has strong antioxidant properties, which may reduce inflammation and skin aging, promote healthy nerve function, lower heart disease risk factors, and slow the progression of memory loss disorders.
