Our cells have small organelles which act like energy factories – the mitochondria. They take in sugars and fatty acids and burn them to create ATP, a form of energy that our cells can use to carry out all the processes they need to. One of the key players in this process is l-carnitine.
L-carnitine is created from amino acids and acts like a shuttle to bring fatty acids into the mitochondria so that they can be used to create energy. Our body can make l-carnitine out of two amino acids, lysine, and methionine, and some vitamin C. We can also get it from meat or fish.
The benefits of l-carnitine
L-carnitine can provide a variety of benefits to the body, however, the two biggest ones are supporting the brain and helping with weight loss.
Acetyl L-Carnitine, a form of l-carnitine, can benefit brain health, helping to keep your brain functioning at its best. It can improve memory, learning, and thinking skills, and keep them sharp as you age.
L-carnitine helps burn fat, so it’s a great addition to a weight loss routine incorporating exercise and a healthy diet. It has been shown to increase weight loss and decrease fat mass.
This supplement can also support you in the gym – it may boost your stamina; help provide more oxygen to your muscles and assist in recovery. It may even decrease muscle soreness.
Therefore, Maxler Acetyl L-Carnitine caps are a great solution for those needing a little extra help with weight loss or those wanting to keep their brains sharp. These vegan caps provide the benefits of l-carnitine regardless of your dietary preference.
Modified means to better
We’ve used advanced technology to make sure you get the most out of the supplement. When you eat, say, fish, only part of the L-carnitine it contains is absorbed. The rest, unfortunately, leaves the body. A modified form of L-carnitine is made bioavailable to ensure maximum absorption.
Crossing the border
The blood-brain barrier is a partition that protects the brain from dangerous compounds that can enter the bloodstream. But, at the same time, it also prevents useful substances from reaching the brain. It requires the use of special, often modified substances to overcome this barrier. Acetyl L-carnitine is just such a substance.

What is the difference between L-carnitine and acetyl-L-carnitine?
L-carnitine and acetyl-L-carnitine are the same thing in two different forms. Acetyl-L-carnitine is the same L-carnitine, but is more easily absorbed from the intestines. It also crosses the blood-brain barrier more easily, allowing the brain to benefit from it as well. For this reason, acetyl-L-carnitine is considered the best form of carnitine for supporting brain health.
I am an athlete, is Acetyl L-Carnitine suitable for me?
Yes! L-carnitine is primarily found in the muscles. Combining Maxler Acetyl L-Carnitine with carbohydrates increases carnitine levels in the muscles. When you train at low or moderate intensity, your body relies on glycogen reserves, so L-carnitine can promote the use of fatty acids, thus protecting your glycogen stores. It also prevents your body from using amino acids for energy, leaving them available for muscle building. Overall, L-carnitine can help increase muscle mass, improve endurance, and support recovery.
Acetyl L-Carnitine - is it suitable for my diet?
Maxler Acetyl L-Carnitine is a vegan tablet that's not only dairy-free but also gluten-free, making it suitable for almost any diet. You'll also be pleased to know that these capsules contain only four ingredients and provide 500 mg of L-carnitine, with no unnecessary extras.
When should I take acetyl-L-carnitine?
You can take acetyl L-carnitine if you're trying to lose some weight or if you want to keep your brain active and healthy. Acetyl L-carnitine is especially important for people who don't eat meat, as they may not get enough of it through their diet. Older adults can also benefit, as the amount of L-carnitine the body produces can decrease with age.
