* Pharmaceutical Grade, Stabilized * ArginoCarn, USP * Mitochondrial Nutrition for Energy Production * Dietary Supplement Acetyl-L-Carnitine Arginate and Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) support the mitochondrial production of energy. Acetyl-L-Carnitine is found in high concentrations in human brain, nerve, heart, liver and sperm cells, where it participates in metabolizing fatty acids into energy by the mitochondria. Alpha Lipoic Acid is a water and liquid soluble antioxidant required by the mitochondrial matrix pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which is the starting point of the Krebs or TCA (energy) cycle. Acetyl-L-Carnitine Arginate and Alpha Lipoic Acid work synergistically as antioxidants. Acetyl-L-Carnitine Arginate Dihydrochloride is manufactured by Sigma-Tau Industries, S.p.A. (Rome, Italy), the pioneer in L-Carnitine science under U.S. patent # 6,703,042 and Worldwide patent # EP1,202,956.
