Acetyl L Carnitine
Acetyl L Carnitine (ALC) has several functions and health benefits. Acetyl-L-carnitine is an acetylated form of L-carnitine. It is a dietary supplement that naturally occurs in animal products used to support a healthy memory. Acetyl L Carnitine is believed to be superior to normal L-carnitine in terms of bioavailability.
L-Carnitine is derived from the amino acids lysine and methionine. Acetyl L Carnitine (ALC) has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and get to the brain blood circulation where it acts as a powerful antioxidant, which may help in prevention of the brain cells deterioration. Its supplementation has been shown to be neuroprotective in instances of cerebral ischemia in rats, and may be useful in the support of peripheral nerve injury, as it may have some neuroprotective health benefits. Acetyl L Carnitine is also known to increase sperm motility, which pertains to the ability of sperm to move vigorously. Since motility is among the most important factors that help in the determination of sperm’s fertilization capability, Acetyl-L-carnitine may help sperm cells move more actively, which consequently leads to the improved male fertility health.
