Description
Product overview
NOW Foods Acetyl-L-Carnitine is a carefully formulated food supplement supplied in convenient vegetarian capsules, each containing 500 mg of the bioavailable form acetyl-L-carnitine. NOW Foods is a family-owned company founded in the USA in 1968, and has since built its reputation on strict quality standards, purity and transparency in production. The company places great importance on sustainability and providing products to suit different lifestyles, as confirmed by these capsules being vegetarian, vegan, kosher and halal certified.
Active ingredients & science
The main ingredient in this supplement is acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC), a modified form of the amino acid L-carnitine with the unique ability to cross the blood–brain barrier. Acetyl-L-carnitine works in the body by transporting fat to the mitochondria, where fatty acids are converted into energy in the form of ATP. The formula uses a stable, well-absorbed form, acetyl-L-carnitine HCl, ensuring good bioavailability and effectiveness when taken daily.
Benefits & uses
- Vegetarian and vegan: Suitable for a range of diets and lifestyles, including kosher and halal.
- Easy to incorporate into daily routines: The capsules are easy to swallow and can be taken at any time of day, making it easy to maintain a regular dosage.
Directions & dosage
The recommended dosage is one capsule per day, providing 500 mg of acetyl-L-carnitine. For best results, the capsule can be taken with a meal, as fat in food may aid absorption. The product can be combined with other food supplements, such as B vitamins or omega-3, to complement a broader nutrient intake. It is important to follow the stated dosage and consult a doctor if you are unsure, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

NOW Foods follows strict GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards to ensure that every product meets high standards of quality and purity. Products undergo thorough testing to ensure they are free from harmful substances and GMOs. This acetyl-L-carnitine is made using stable raw materials and carefully packaged in vegetarian hypromellose capsules, making the product durable and safe to use. Since its founding, NOW Foods has maintained a clear philosophy of offering products with transparent ingredients and manufacturing processes, making it easy for consumers to feel confident.
