NOW Supplements, Acetyl-L Carnitine 500 mg, Amino Acid, Brain And Nerve Cell Function*, 100 Veg Capsules

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Because it’s a reliable brand

I take for restless leg symptoms. If symptoms returned its because i accidently skipped a dose. Initially, I took two pills once daily and immediately noticed a halt in my symptoms. I fall asleep right away without the zaps, and sleep through the night.Now, I take one after dinner and enjoy same results.

Trusted brand. Improved circulation.

The capsules inside the bottle seem fine.However, I was annoyed to find a large secondary label (presumably for ID and inventory tracking) was stuck on each bottle -- right over the original label, covering up the part of the original label that describes suggested dose and what this supplement is used for. Very annoying -- especially because immediately to the left of it was a large empty space that could easily accommodate the secondary label.

Acetyl-L Carnitine is known for its ability to support cellular energy production and promote healthy brain and nerve cell function, and this product from NOW Foods delivers exactly that. I've noticed a significant improvement in my mental clarity, focus, and overall energy levels since I started taking these capsules. They seem to help combat the mental fog that often hits in the afternoon, keeping me sharp and productive throughout the day.What I really appreciate about this supplement is the clean and straightforward formula. NOW Foods is a brand I trust for their commitment to quality and transparency, and these capsules are no exception. They are non-GMO, vegan, and free from common allergens, which makes them a great choice for those with dietary restrictions.The 200-capsule bottle is an excellent value, lasting several months and making this an economical choice without compromising quality. They are easy to swallow and do not leave any unpleasant aftertaste, which is a huge plus for me.

I have Fibromyalgia with chronic fatigue. Most days I spend the day in bed. I read some articles on ALC and researched studies before I tried it. I always do this because I take several medications. Also, speak with your doctor. I'm not sure what your doctor is like but I asked one of mine about taking acetyl l-carnitine and she said herbs and vitamins are not overseen by the FDA so she really couldn't tell me anything about it. She did look it up on her laptop and we discussed it a bit. Anyway, back to the product. Due to the research I did, I started out with a dose of 3 capsules in the am and 2 in the afternoon. First day I had great energy, clarity and a good mood. Second day the same thing. But before it was time for me to take the 2nd dose, day 2, I noticed a rash on my lower legs. From past experience this is what happens when I'm allergic to something. I didn't take that 2nd dose. The next morning the rash was gone. I took 2 capsules. No energy, no clarity and no good mood. The next morning I cecided to go ahead and try taking just one dose of 3 for the day. Yea! Here comes the energy, clarity and good mood. I have continued to take 3 a day and have not broken out again. There are days still that I don't get out of bed but that's because I've been able to do things for 3 days before that! Haha! I don't know how to pace myself yet. I would highly recommend anyone who has a problem with fatigue to try ALC. I would highly recommend anyone with memory problems try ALC. I would also highly recommend someone who has anxiety, depression or low moods to try it. Do your reading, ask your doctor and see what it will do for you. It changed my life!

The first few doses felt great. Then it felt terrible soooo…. I guess not for me. I’ve had similar reactions to other products containing Acetle sooo… maybe not the carnatine at all
