Swanson Acetyl L-Carnitine 500 Milligrams 240 Veg Capsules

Arrived on time and what we wanted

Received as expected

Could see a difference right away with my anxiety disorder which causes excoriation (skin picking/hair pulling impulse) as suggested in my research.

This helps my memory far better than ginko or any other products Ive tried. Swanson is always the right right place to purchase any supplement PERIOD. What you wont read anywhere about this product.......I had iritis as a kid left untreated and my eyes are very sensitive to light. Photo phobia they call it. Sunglasses required on cloudy days. I sit in the dark at home ....This stuff helps my eyes. I can actually turn on the lights on my ceiling fan and not squint. Drs wont tell you this but man oh man it helps with the light. It also helps my thirst. For nearly 35 years I havent been able to go more than 15 minutes without a drink. I drink 2 gallons of water a day after my 24 cups of green tea. Anyway this helps me go sometimes up to 2 hours without needing a drink. The only downfall is headaches . Too much and you get a headache. Miss a few days and start taking it again and I get a headache......Due to this I have taken a month off from taking it and now I lost my job so I will be off it for some time......Trust me though. Its a great product and does more than it claims. Just try it and pay attention.

These will be a part of my regimen forever! I heard these are good for impulsive disorders such as trich, and boy is that true! So true that if I take at a different time of day I notice my impulses come back. By week 2 I started taking 2 a day. My eyebrows (that’s the hair I pulled) are coming back so nice and it feels so good to not be pulling again!

I purchased this product after researching online and finding that acetyl l-carnitine has shown positive results in treating Peyronie's disease. If you know what that is (and I won't get into the graphic details here), then you know how difficult it is to find a reliable non-surgical treatment for it. The product label suggests 1 - 2 capsules daily as a supplement, but the suggested dosage for Peyronie's treatment is 1500 mg so I take one capsule in the morning, one before dinner and one at bedtime. While it doesn't reverse the symptoms of Peyronie's, it does appear to have halted the progress and I've experienced significant relief from the pain associated with it. And while acetyl l-carnitine is promoted as improving alertness, I find that my bedtime dose doesn't interfere with my sleep at all. I give this product 4 stars rather than 5 because, while it does what I wanted, I don't experience the improvement in mental clarity that others claim to get. But I'm happy enough with my results that I just bought a fresh supply from the same manufacturer.

I ordered this product because I make it a habit to NOT check "reviews" for any particular product. When a "review" search is done, you'll receive a potpourri of personally invested sellers of the product and an infestation of any number of self interested parties. The only meaningful search you must always rely on is "CLINICAL TRIALS" Search for clinical trials and then browse what you feel is the most authentic and seriously conducted, by the most serious entity possible for that product is what I rely on. This is a cognitive support supplement. There is no way I as a single human being can honestly evaluate its supposed benefits. However, in my clinical trial web research I became convinced of the efficacy of this supplement to perform the function for which it was intended. At that point I TRUST the effectiveness and can only hope that I am not wasting my money. I'm a senior citizen and I take this supplement daily. I feel sharp and alert. Would I feel this way otherwise? Who knows? It is only my research that has caused my financial commitment to this stuff. All I can say, is don't do a search of 'reviews'!

I purchased Swanson's version of Acetyl L-Carnitine because it was the least expensive. My supplements are very well calculated, but I take several; so if I can save money on some of them I try to. This product has been very effective for me. I use it for adrenal fatigue in conjunction with a B-complex and Pantothenic Acid. This trio has allowed me to get off of the adrenal supplement I was taking, an animal-based gland extract. The gland extract is excellent but this new route gives my adrenals the tools it needs to function better, instead of just adding in what was lacking. It feels great after being on adrenals for years to be able to take the building blocks instead and to see my glands function BETTER than they were on the extract. I feel the best now I've felt in years. Super thankful for this added improvement. The low cost of this supplement seems not to affect its quality.
