Carnitine-PLUS vegcaps: Acetyl-L-Carnitine plus Carnitine
Sharpen Your Mind, Enhance Your Memory, Improve Your Mood*
Carnitine, which comes in different forms — such as L-Carnitine, Acetyl L Carnitine (Acetyl Carnitine), Propionyl L Carnitine, Carnitine Tartrate,Carnitine Fumarate and Carnitine Orotate — is an amino acid present in virtually every cell of your body.
Carnitine's main role is to shuttle fatty acids into the mitochondria — the "power stations" within your cells — where they are used to manufacture energy.* Basically, it liberates energy from fat. Carnitine also plays a role in over 1000 different functions within cells.
Form Matters: The Benefits of Acetyl L-Carnitine and L Carnitine Orotate
GeroNova's Carnitine-PLUS formula provides two stable and highly beneficial forms of Carnitine: Acetyl L Carnitine and L-Carnitine Orotate. BUY 3 BOTTLES AND SAVE 10%!
Like L Carnitine, Acetyl-L-Carnitine burns fats to produce energy.* However, it has specific benefits for the brain. Why? Because only Acetyl L Carnitine has the unique ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, meaning it readily enters the brain.
That's why Carnitine-PLUS provides the following brain-specific benefits:
- Supports the synthesis of important brain chemicals (neurotransmitters)*
- Protects brain cells from free radical damage*
- Increases the amount of energy available to the brain*
- Enhances memory*
- Improves emotional health*
- Sharpens cognitive function*
L-Carnitine Orotate is a salt of L-Carnitine and Orotic Acid. The reason L-Carnitine Orotate versus is superior to other forms of Carnitine, such as Propionyl L Carnitine, Carnitine Tartrate and Carnitine Fumarate, is that both halves of the compound — the Carnitine and the Orotic Acid — are active.
Unlike propionic acid, tartrate and fumarate, which don't serve any function within the cell, orotic acid is very useful to the cell. For example, it promotes the reproduction of liver cells and helps normalize liver enzyme systems.* Therefore, L-Carnitine Orotate delivers benefits above and beyond those of other forms of Carnitine.
L-Carnitine Orotate is also more absorbable than regular L-Carnitine.
By combining these two forms of Carnitine into one product, Carnitine-PLUS provides effective natural support for your mind, your memory and your mood.*
Carnitine Deficiency
Carnitine is considered a "conditionally essential" nutrient. That means that while the human body can normally make Carnitine, there are some circumstances it can't make enough. During those times, Carnitine has to be supplied through the diet (mostly in red meats and dairy products) or through taking supplements.
Clinical Carnitine deficiency is rare. However, diabetics, pregnant and nursing women, vegetarians and athletes may have lower than optimal levels.
Recommended Product Pairings: Carnitine and R Lipoic Acid
For best results, pair a Carnitine product with an R-Lipoic Acid (RLA) product. Why? Because R-Lipoic Acid and Carnitine complement one another in the production of energy.* In fact, research indicates that the combination of R-Lipoic Acid and Carnitine may be more beneficial than either product taken alone.
