Acetyl-L-Carnitine and Diabetic Neuropathy
An evaluation from two 52-week randomized placebo-controlled
clinical diabetic neuropathy trials testing acetyl-l-carnitine demonstrated that
acetyl-l-carnitine treatment is beneficial in alleviating symptoms (particularly pain) and improves nerve fiber regeneration and vibration
perception in patients with established diabetic neuropathy. The study was
published in Diabetes Care journal.
Acetyl-l-Carnitine versus testosterone for sexual
enhancement, mood and energy
Can acetyl-l-carnitine, a natural nutrient, be just as good for aging men
as testosterone? In this Italian study, a total of 120 men (age range 60
to 74) were randomized into three groups. Group 1 was given testosterone,
the second group was given propionyl-L-carnitine 2 grams a day plus
acetyl-L-carnitine 2 grams a day. The third group was given a placebo. Testosterone, carnitines and placebo were given for 6 months.
Results: Testosterone and carnitines significantly improved performance on
several tests that measure sexual function, mood, and energy. These tests
included nocturnal penile tumescence, Depression Melancholia Scale score, and fatigue scale
score. Carnitines proved significantly more active than testosterone in
improving sexual function. Testosterone significantly increased the prostate volume
and testosterone levels; carnitines did not. Carnitines and
testosterone proved effective for as long as they were administered. No
major side effects were reported within the 6 month study period.

and testosterone for sexual health, mood and energy
Can acetyl-l-carnitine, a natural nutrient, be just as good for aging men
as testosterone? In this Italian study, a total of 120 men (age range 60
to 74) were randomized into three groups. Group 1 was given testosterone,

acetyl-l-carnitine 2 grams a day. The third group was given a placebo. Testosterone, carnitines and placebo were given for 6 months.
Results: Testosterone and acetyl-l-carnitine along with propionyl-l-carnitine improved performance on
several tests that measure sexual function, mood, and energy. These tests
included nocturnal penile tumescence, Depression Melancholia Scale score, and fatigue scale
score. Acetyl-l-carnitine and propionyl-l-carnitine proved significantly more active than testosterone in
improving sexual function. Testosterone significantly increased the prostate volume
and testosterone levels; Acetyl-l-carnitine and propionyl-l-carnitine did not.
Comment: Acetyl-l-carnitine and propionyl-l-carnitine appeared to be
slightly more effective and safer than testosterone.
Acetyl-lcarnitine beneficial
for macular degeneration
Improvement of visual functions and fundus alterations in early
age-related macular degeneration treated with a combination of acetyl-L-carnitine,
n-3 fatty acids, and coenzyme Q10.
Ophthalmologica. 2005 May-Jun;219(3):154-66. Ophthalmic Neuroscience
Program, Department of Ophthalmology, University of Rome 'La Sapienza',
Rome, Italy.
The aim of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical
trial was to determine the efficacy of a combination of acetyl-L-carnitine,
n-3 fatty acids, and coenzyme Q10 (Phototrop) on the visual functions and
fundus alterations in early age-related macular degeneration (AMD). One
hundred and six patients with a clinical diagnosis of early AMD were
randomized to the treated or control groups. The primary efficacy variable
was the change in the visual field mean defect (VFMD) from baseline to 12
months of treatment, with secondary efficacy parameters: visual acuity (Snellen
chart and ETDRS chart), foveal sensitivity as measured by perimetry, and
fundus alterations as evaluated according to the criteria of the
International Classification and Grading System for AMD. The mean change
in all four parameters of visual functions showed significant improvement
in the treated group by the end of the study period. Decrease in drusen-covered
area of treated eyes was also statistically significant as compared to
placebo. These findings strongly suggested that an appropriate combination
of compounds which affect mitochondrial lipid metabolism, may improve and
subsequently stabilize visual functions, and it may also improve fundus
alterations in patients affected by early AMD.
L-carnitine L-tartrate
supplements
The effects of L-carnitine L-tartrate supplementation on hormonal
responses to resistance exercise and recovery.
Kraemer WJ. University of
Connecticut, Storrs, CT 06269, USA.
J Strength Cond Res. 2003 Aug;17(3):455-62.
The purpose of this investigation was to examine the influence of L-carnitine L-tartrate supplementation using a balanced, cross-over, placebo-controlled research
design on the anabolic hormone response (i.e., testosterone [T], insulin-like
growth factor-I, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 [IGFBP-3], and immunofunctional and immunoreactive growth hormone [GHif and GHir]) to acute
resistance exercise. Ten healthy, recreationally weight-trained men
volunteered and were matched, and after 3 weeks of supplementation (2 g carnitine per
day), fasting morning blood samples were obtained on six consecutive days
(D1-D6). Subjects performed a squat protocol (5 sets of 15-20 repetitions) on
D2. During the squat protocol, blood samples were obtained before exercise and
0, 15, 30, 120, and 180 minutes postexercise. After a 1-week washout period,
subjects consumed the other supplement for a 3-week period, and the same
experimental protocol was repeated using the exact same procedures. Expected
exercise-induced increases in all of the hormones were observed for GHir, GHif,
IGFBP-3, and T. Over the recovery period, carnitine reduced the amount of
exercise-induced muscle tissue damage, which was assessed via magnetic resonance
imaging scans of the thigh. carnitine supplementation significantly
increased IGFBP-3 concentrations prior to and at 30, 120, and 180 minutes after
acute exercise. No other direct effects of carnitine supplementation were observed on
the absolute concentrations of the hormones examined, but with more undamaged
tissue, a greater number of intact receptors would be available for hormonal
interactions. These data support the use of carnitine as a recovery supplement for
hypoxic exercise and lend further insights into the hormonal mechanisms that may
help to mediate quicker recovery.

Acetyl-l Carnitine questions
Q. What is
acetyl-l carnitine arginate?
A. We are not familiar with
acetyl- l carnitine arginate.
Q. Is headache a l acetyl-l carnitine side effect?
A. In a few people, headache may be a cause of a high dose of
l acetyl- l carnitine side effect.
Q. Can you please explain to me in a simple way. I
don't have a lot of knowledge in medicine or chemical terminology. What is
the difference between the l-carnitine and the acetyl l carnithine? Are
they the same thing? If different from each other, how that difference
affects any person taking those products? Can they be taken in a
combination or make no difference either one you take? Because they are
two names for something, that looks to me like the same product; I'm kind
of confused. Basically; I know, that there is a difference on price
between these two products for whatever reason, but that's all I know.
A. Acetyl carnitine (also
spelled as acetyl l carnitine or acetyl-l carnitine) and carnitine play several
important roles in the human body. These nutrients shuttle acetyl groups and fatty acids
into mitochondria for energy production. Without carnitine, fatty acids cannot easily
enter into mitochondria. The acetyl group of acetyl l carnitine is used to form
acetyl-CoA, the most important intermediary in the generation of energy from
amino acids, fats, and carbohydrates. Therefore, acetyl l carnitine serves as an
energy reservoir of acetyl groups and both acetylcarnitine and carnitine help
improve energy production. The acetyl group of acetyl l carnitine is also used to make the important brain chemical
acetylcholine. Some studies suggest that perhaps acetyl l carnitine can even act as a neurotransmitter itself. Those who take carnitine pills notice an increase in physical energy, but
not as much mental energy. Acetyl l carnitine has a significantly more
immediate and noticeable mental effect than carnitine because it crosses into
the brain much better. The mind boosting effect of acetyl l carnitine is often noticed within a few
hours, or even within an hour. Most people report feeling mentally sharper,
having more focus and being more alert. Some find a mild mood enhancement.
Q. Is it too high a dose to combine coq10 100
mg with acetyl l carnitine 500 mg?
A. For most people, yes. We suggest limiting it to
CoQ10 30mg and acetyl l carnitine to 300 mg
or less.
