*********************************************
In this video you'll discover the nootropic benefits of Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALCAR). Including why we use Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALCAR) as a nootropic, the difference between L-Carnitine and Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALCAR), recommended dosage, side effects and clinical research.
Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALCAR) is a synthesized version of L-Carnitine. Which is a derivative of the amino acids lysine and methionine.
ALCAR is more bioavailable than L-Carnitine. It easily crosses the blood-brain barrier. And delivers L-Carnitine across cell membranes and into your brain (which L-Carnitine would not be able to cross on its own).
ALCAR is a necessary ingredient for acetylcholine formation. Which boosts memory, mental alertness, and fluid thought.
The antioxidant properties of Acetyl-L-Carnitine provides neuroprotective qualities, boosts Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF), and promotes cerebral blood circulation.
Acetyl-L-Carnitine helps with memory, mood, mental performance and the ability to get and maintain an erection.
As a nootropic, ALCAR users report a boost in energy and quicker thinking.

As a stroke victim, I use this w/PS chlorine and PS serine. I can’t tell you how this has changed my life and turned my brain back on. Also, get for energy !
Steve, thanks for sharing.
I took ALCAR years ago but never thought I could see any difference. I still kept it in powder form however. Now that I am experiencing fatigue from CHF (congestive heart failure, bradycardia) I began looking for ways to improve my energy naturally-hoping to avoid a pacemaker for now. I dug out my ALCAR yesterday before my swim which I force myself through because energy begets energy but lately I have felt like I was run over by a truck for three days after each swim, and that after only 20-30 minutes. To be fair, I did start taking a pill form of ALCAR and uniquinol last week so maybe all can’t be accredited to the powdered ALCAR I loaded in my drink pre workout but man, what a difference! Not only was I able to complete a 45 minute swim I was able to walk out of the gym without my cane, no pain at all, and have absolutely no soreness today even. I am simply amazed. And wondering how often and how much I should take. My Apple Watch still alarmed me all evening that my heart rate had fallen below 40 for more than 10 minutes but I felt great and my blood oxygen was 94-96% so whatever, ALCAR did the trick.
Wanda, ALCAR and CoQ10 work in synergy to help make ATP which is your main energy source produced in your mitochondria.
I'm currently using this to suppress my overactive thyroid. I can tell it's helping with word recall as an added benefit.
THANKS APPRECIATE SO MUCH THESE VIDEOS ❤🙏
L-Carnitine does not easily cross the blood-brain barrier. But when you add an acetyl-group to it is easily crosses into your brain.
So, plain L-Carnitine does not have any nootropic value because it cannot get into your brain in the amounts you need to make acetylcholine.
what a great resource of information. Still love the pro level graphics too.
Much appreciated! Thanks
Thank you for your time and expertise sir.
Thanks Matthew.
Congratulations on 100.000 Subscribers!
Thank you so much. This was a long time coming. RUclips even sent me a silver plaque like a rock star would get. My son said he's only seen rap stars get plaques like the one I got. So thank you everyone for helping us get here!
Very helpful ,thank you and blessings to you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks
As always tnx very very much Doc David
Thank you sir! But please drop the "Doc' because I'm not a doctor. Haven't even played one on TV! Just an ordinary guy who figured out how to use natural nootropics to save my own life. And passing the knowledge on to others.
@@NootropicsExpert ok
Thanks David! The gold standard on nootropics
You humble me sir.
Nootropics KING , Thank you!!
Thank you!!!
Thank you for you work, its a nice opportunity to get to know supplement by watching your videos, very helpful
My pleasure! Thank you.
Thank you David
Welcome!
Thank you so much! 😁👍
You are so welcome!
Thanks for sharing this information. ⚡️✌️♥️
You bet!
Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching.
Hi, thank so much for the wealth of information you have shared with us over the years. You are definitely my go to guy! 😍I am fully aware that you don’t give medical advice so anecdotally do you know if car or alcar is associated with depletion of thyroid hormones in those with either hashimotos or hypothyroidism? And if so, how might one mitigate that? Thanks
L-carnitine inhibits both triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) entry into the cell nuclei (pulse.ly/0a3u2xbxtb ). But at lower doses like 500 mg twice per day it does not seem to cause problems in my experience.
Great informative video as always David, thank you!
Thank you Farhan. Much appreciated!
I love updates.
New science and better equipment = updates.
Thanks for this! You should consider making an update for Alpha GPC too 😅
Josh, I recorded an update to Alpha GPC and will likely publish it in a few days.
Hi Sir, thanks for all the videos , can you tell us what's happened in the nootropic market in the USA this days
Part of it is supply chain problems that are ongoing which started with COVID. And then got worse because a lot of people quit their jobs. And last thing is the FDA sent letters out to some companies who have since went out of business.
I take 1000 mg of alcar plus 200 mg of coq10 for stage one diastolic dysfunction. I hope it helps it going to stage two
Thank you!! Where did you learn about these nootropics?
Reading thousands of clinical studies in online journals like PubMed
Thanks again David. I made my own ALCAR capsules about a month back, but forgot to add them to my stack. I had forgotten if I made them or not. How's that fro a great memory? Anyway, I found them and put them with the rest of my supplements. I took a gram for good measure. Peace.
You were missing the ALCAR. That's likely why you forgot.😼
Thanks for the info.
A paperback book would be fantastic?
Funny enough I was working on it just now and took a break to see if anyone had any questions since this video was published. As soon as I am done here it's back to the book. I did promise the publisher he would get it tomorrow.
Thank you again for another amazing video.
I am looking at different forms to purchase would you recommend at all combining pure l-carnitine powder with acetyl l-carnitine?
Thank you very much
Not needed because ALCAR will provide the Carnitine you need AND cross the blood-brain barrier too.
@@NootropicsExpert So if I understood you correctly all have to do is purchase acetyl l-carnitine?
Thank you for responding
That is correct. All you need is ALCAR.
I expected to hear something about how ALCAR has been found to regenerate A and C small fiber nerves due to diabetes, alcohol use disorder , aids and several diseases that attach these small nerve fibers.
Lee, all of my work centers around how these supplements benefit the human brain. I'm sure ALCAR provides many other benefits to other systems but I focus on the its nootropic value to the brain.
@@NootropicsExpert Thanks. Good work.
Thanks for all you do! Can you take this for chronic fatigue, muscle weakness plus sleep issues? Or what would you recommend helps?
You can certainly use it for chronic fatigue, it may help with muscle weakness although that is not my area of expertise. But it will likely interrupt your sleep if you take it too late in the day. It's used the produce energy after all.
Can i use it if i have hypoterios?
Sir, What is the best supplements to stop or reverse diabetic type one severe neuropathic pain ?
Thanks.
My area of expertise is the human brain so please keep that in mind. Neuropathic pain is outside the scope of my research.
That said, I have come across benefits for this type of pain with: ALCAR, R-Lipoic Acid, BioActive B-Complex, Vitamin D3, Curcumin with Piperine or BioPerine.
DHA (Omega-3) but NOT fish oil or most Omega-3s because the amount of DHA is too low. You need 1,000 mg DHA per day and half that of EPA.
And N-Acetyl L-Cysteine (NAC) 500 mg 3-times per day.
You would have to take 3 capsules of performance lab energy for 750mg of alcar the recommended dose is 2 capsules
You get 500 mg ALCAR in 2 capsules of Performance Lab Energy which should be enough for one dose. Either take another dose of PL Energy or get a separate ALCAR supplement which is what I do. And I only do two doses per day because I found the 3rd dose later in the afternoon started messing with my sleep.
How do you mitigate headaches from Alcar? I took it a few times with 300mg of NALT and 250mg of CDP-Choline.
Ray, the only way is to stop using ALCAR. This supplement does not work for everyone. And you may be one of those people.
Hi. I never tried this suppliment before. Currently I am talking alpha lipoic acid. Wondering can I take both together?
Reece, the combo works great together for increasing energy.
Do you have any experience with dystonia....before I make an appointment please
Alex, research is ongoing with natural supplements to treat dystonia. But there is enough to get you started.
THANKS for this Update !!! For some reason I missed the original video & just saw it today.
I've used so many of your Recommendations & they Truly have IMPROVED my Overall Health in many ways.
But as you often indicate, we must Trial & Error until we Discover what Works Best.
I've tried a lot but no Errors. Everything Helps. But as I Concluded by watching your Videos; Prostate & ED is caused by some Deficiency in the Brain.
A few months ago I began taking Full Spectrum Amino Acids & stopped taking Protein Powder Supplements. I also added a 2000mg per day of Pumpkin Seed Oil.
My ED has practically Disappeared, Morning Wood Daily, no need for Sildenafil, & my Mind is Clear. Prostate Measures are now down to 4.1 with the Prostate Size going from 25% enlarged to 5%.
I take many other Suppliements & for years. But this Recent Change has come From the Amino Acids. I'm sure the Pumpkin Seed Oil helps Greatly Too.
But the Aminos along with the NooTropics & Vitamins you Recommend (list is too long to Include lol) are what have improved my entire Organism.
The Aminos I take include the L-Carnitine. But I refocused more on L-Carnitine, Creatine & L-Leusine for M-Tor Reaction. The only side effects it makes you poop but not Diarrhea .
But mostly L-Carnitine by Accident lol
I am Now going to Focus on Acetyl Carnitine as this Reaches the Brain !!!
I haven't seen any in the stores. But I've seen some online.
As you have so often indicated, our bodies no longer produce Aminos as when we were Younger. That is why I reverted to taking Full Spectrum Aminos.
When I was a Body Builder in my 30s I never took protein powders. Only Keylated Aminos from GNC the only place to buy them back then & they worked Awesome.
I suspect this may not work for everyone, but I'm sure it can't hurt those struggling with ED, Prostate & Beginning Alzheimers.
I am convinced these ALL START IN THE BRAIN. With Inflammation. And Eliminating the inflammation in the Brain will Cure the rest Naturally if one begins early.
I can only thank you for All You Wonderful Informative NooTropic Videos that Gave me HOPE to continue the Battle !!! And Now I Finally see The Light at the End of the Tunnel.
Many of my Friends had their Prostate Removed, had Prostate Cancer or Died.
There are so many things involved but I can say this much - Gut Biome, the more Fiber the Better, AMINO ACIDS Full Spectrum Especially those that can crossover into the Brain & Healthy Diet & Supplements.
Thanks Again. I will Continue Watching your Videos and Continue to Fight the Good Fight.
Good Luck to All of You Who Follow this Channel ...
MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
Thanks TC. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Does ALCAR has the same benefits as L carnitine tartrate in fat mobilization and blood flow?
L-Carnitine cannot easily cross the blood-brain barrier. Which is why we use ALCAR instead because it easily and rapidly gets into your brain.
The suggested ALCAR in the link is very expensive. 😔
If you are referring to Performance Lab Energy which I recommend it's $69 USD for a bottle. But it contains another 5 supplement ingredients. Which is you bought individually would be much more than buying a bottle of PL Energy.
Sir, how to get consultation from you sir. Regarding neurological issues! 🙏
Michael, just go to my calendar and choose a time that I'm available and that works for you: pulse.ly/11hbafbz4a
As a 23 year old physique athlete (NOT COMPETING) wich is the dose you recommend to boost fat burning and overall health? Also from what i understood you recommend Acetyl L-Carnitine as an overall better suplement compared to only using L-Carnitine, correct me if i'm wrong.
I recommend ALCAR rather than L-Carnitine because ALCAR can easily cross the blood-brain barrier. The recommended adult dosage for ALCAR is 500 mg 2 or 3-times per day.
I hate to ask this here, but do you have a video on msm?
Debbie I highly doubt I'll be doing a review of MSM because there is no solid evidence the it benefits the human brain.
What about studies on ALCAR and TMAO?
I do not understand your question. Do you mean the combination of the two supplements?
@@NootropicsExpert in studies trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), which is an end product of l-carnitine metabolism via the activity of microbiota, has been identified as a cardiovascular disease (CVD) biomarker.
Wim, I do no doubt you but please include a link to the study when making a statement like that.
And here I'm talking about Acetyl L-Carnitine and NOT L-Carnitine. Is the same true for ALCAR? I don't think so but haven't the time to prove it right now.
The thing is you absolutely need L-Carnitine to produce Acetyl Co-A for the production of acetylcholine. But it does not cross the blood-brain barrier. Which is why we use ALCAR instead.
Can carnitine reduce anxiety thanks
It depends on the cause of your anxiety.
Would ALCAR be more effective and be able to dose lower if injected? I know only 18% l-carnitine is orally absorbed but ALCAR is 90%. Why are the dosages so high with ALCAR if it’s so bioavailable? I was IM l-carnitine at 500-1000mg a day because I’d need to use 5 grams to benefit from it orally. But ALCAR is far more bioavailable so why the high dosages?
Mike, all of my "recommended dosages" are suggestions. Each person needs to figure out how much of each supplement is ideal for them.
Is it safe to consume gaba with alcar?
Yes
Anything ALCAR is synergistic with?
Christian ALCAR works with Alpha GPC or CDP-Choline to produce acetylcholine.
I love this nootropic it helps a lot with my anxiety and I've noticed less leg muscle cramps while taking it. This I stack with 5-HTP cat's claw and CBD and this has been a game changer when it comes to depression and anxiety for me. All these natural things like the 5-HTP I never thought that if you have low serotonin it interferes with you as a female when it comes to hormonal conditions.
I love your videos they're very informative and I could be like you sit down and talk about all the New tropics all day long how they help with your cognitive and how your cognitive issues plays a role with other parts of the body it's amazing how we have science and we have supplements like nootropics that can change your life. I've been doing a little research in on are there any nootropics that cats can use as they get older just a hobby of mine I like to learn things. I wish you many happy healthy years.😸
I love cats (and dogs) but am not a vet. The best thing to do is search for a vet who specializes in natural cures for cats. I'm sure you'll find a few of them online.
💯👋
How can i use alcar as students?
The same as anyone else Mohamed. Pair it with CoQ10, R-Lipoic Acid and PQQ for a pure, clean energy boost.
What about help with Narcolepsy???
Modafinil. You will likely need to get a prescription but it works.
Which one is like lorazepam? I take 4 mg of clonazepam: I want off clonazepam.
Bacopa Monnieri and Ashwagandha.
Or eat a steak 🥩
Agreed!
I caught the very first video you made on it. I’m getting old 😅
Hah! This was the very first video I recorded back when I had no idea what I was doing. It sure has been a journey to this point. And it just keeps getting better so stay tuned!
