Acetyl-L-Carnitine
Acetyl-L-carnitine is a dietary supplement used to improve memory, such as in Alzheimer's disease. Acetyl-L-carnitine may improve depression, improve cerebral blood flow and elevate mood. Research also indicates that ALC can restore mitochondrial membrane function and membrane fluidity to that of younger organisms. Other uses for acetyl-L-carnitine include the treatment of Parkinson's disease, stroke, and Peyronie's disease.
