Re: Acetyl-L- Carnitine Arginate

November 29, 2006

Hi:

If it is 4X better than acetyl-l-carnitine, then it is simple to

compute its value vs acetyl-l-carnitine. This bottle has 100 caps

with 320 mg ALCA and 300 mg ALC, so each cap has 1.58 gm equivalent

of ALC and at about $35/bottle (member, 4 bottle price) 25/158 gm =

$0.22 per gram equivalent of ALC. ALC alone sells at some

<http://www.americannutrition.com/store/acetyl_alpha.html>discount

and bulk vitamin stores in powder or even in caps at as low as $0.15

per gram. One can argue that LEF has great quality, of course. I

suggest, based on the research of Bruce Ames, Ph.D. at UC Berkeley,

that you also be certain to take alpha lipoic acid and biotin at the

same time. This will help give you lots of energy, burn fat,

increase insulin sensitivity. ALC(A) and ALA are very synergistic

and biotin helps them do their work.

How much of each of these things are you taking? Quantity,

source? I'm looking for the best source for curcumin especially.

ALCA,

Resveratrol,

Blueberry,

Curcumin,

Green Tea,

Quercetin,

Fish Oil.

New research also highly implicates high blood sugar in Alzheimers,

some researchers believing it to be the main cause. Do you carefully

monitor and control your blood glucose?

Ever try a 2gm (or more) dose of regular 'ol ALC?

Works for me! Great for exercise too. I buy it by the kilo.

Dave: I have been taking 500 mg/day for several years now. I have

never noticed anything special, but I am convinced that it it is a good

idea. However, I may not be taking enough to do any noticeable good..

What have you discerned regarding exercise? How much do you take? Have

you been able to tell a difference with regard to quantity? Also, where

do you buy it by the kilo? Regards, Jim

I weigh 195 lbs and I need at least a gram to notice anything. Usually

greater energy, increased concentration, more stamina, etc. However, 2

1/2 or more grams can frequently leave me feeling overstimulated

(similar to too much caffeine). For myself, the optimal dosage is one

that produces a very mild " prickling " sensation, not unlike a niacin

flush (without the heat or flush, and not unpleasant).

For aerobic exercise, I take it with carnosine (3.5 grams) and

Idebenone, occasionally theanine, sometimes some Piracetam.

For anaerobic, I take it with creatine and follow exercise with whey

protein and a very modest amount of honey or sugar to facilitate recovery.
