Acetyl-L-carnitine, often abbreviated to ALCAR, is an amino acid derivative that occurs in various tissues of the human body, including the brain. Amino acid derivatives are chemical compounds derived from amino acids but with a slightly different structure. Acetyl-L-carnitine plays an important role in cellular energy production and is involved in the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria. In particular, Acetyl-L-carnitine is especially popular with athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

Produktinformationen
L-carnitine supplies the cellular powerhouses with fuel
L-carnitine plays a fundamental role in fat metabolism. Fatty acids are transported across the mitochondrial membranes only when bound to L-carnitine. There they are converted into energy (ATP) that cells need for their work. Energy requirements increase particularly during physical exertion.
Acetyl L-carnitine is distinguished by its particular stability. In the acetylated form of the amino acid L-carnitine, carnitine is more readily absorbed and utilised by the body.
What is L-carnitine and who needs it?
L-carnitine is a semi-essential amino acid. The body can synthesise it from methionine and lysine. However, we primarily obtain L-carnitine through meat consumption. Therefore, if you follow a predominantly plant-based diet, supplementation with L-carnitine is recommended, especially for those who regularly engage in active exercise.
Each jar of Acetyl L-carnitine 3,000 mg from Unimedica contains 250 capsules. This corresponds to a generous monthly supply (41 days).
