NOW Foods Acetyl-L Carnitine, 50 Caps (500 mg)

It works for weight lose. I lose more weight taking it.

O purchased for my mom, she has seizures and problems with her memory. This seems so help her a lot.

Initially I experienced an increase in energy that I directed to tasks that I then completed quickly. This energy was restless rather than pleasant but it was useful and I was glad for it. As I continued this effect faded, and when I raised the dose it was much milder and shorter. Then, after a week I began experiencing sore muscles in lower and upper back and over entire front chest. These became worse with resting, and they were lessened by exercise. In addition a feeling of malaise set in. I then stopped this ALCAR and these problems faded over three days, and they are gone now. I will not resume ALCAR. A.I. search did not identify the possibility of these adverse effects. Although I was surprised by them, the only cause I can identify is this ALCAR. For my personal experience I would rate this one star, but because my personal experience might be atypical I rated it 3 stars. Nevertheless, I can not recommend ALCAR of any brand to anyone.

Good

It helped with my mood but it seemed to increase my joint pain. I quit taking it and am feeling better pain wise.
