Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALCAR, ALC) is an organic chemical compound that is the acetylated form of L-Carnitine. It is the most abundant naturally occurring derivative of this amino acid in the human body. It also appears to be able to cross the blood-brain barrier and exhibit activity in the nervous system due to its ethyl moiety.
In the human body, carnitine plays an important role in cellular energy production. Its main tasks include transporting long-chain fatty acids to the mitochondria so that they can be oxidized, which process results finally in cellular energy production. It also transports toxic compounds produced in these organelles, thus preventing their accumulation, which could be harmful in the other way.
Acetyl-L-carnitine provides the body with acetyl groups. They are needed for the synthesis of acetylcholine. This neurotransmitter is responsible, among other things, for encoding memories and is involved in the learning process. Probably, for this reason, ALCAR is seen as a substance with nootropic potential.
In conclusion, Aliness L-Carnitine ALC is a product that is a good source of L-Carnitine. According to scientists, the acetylated form of this amino acid may have some advantages over its basic form. It is certainly better absorbed from the small intestine than L-carnitine and can get into brain tissue without any problems.
