Alpha01 L-Carnitine Complex 2000mg 120 Capsules

L-carnitine is a nutrient produced naturally in the body from the amino acids lysine and methionine, and it is found in foods such as red meat, fish and dairy. Alpha01 L-Carnitine Complex 2000mg Capsules provide a generous 2,000mg of fermented acetyl L-carnitine per serving, supported by a carefully chosen selection of B vitamins, biotin, chromium and vitamin D3.

Fermented Acetyl L-Carnitine

Acetyl L-carnitine, often shortened to ALCAR, is a form of L-carnitine that carries an acetyl group. Many carnitine supplements are produced through chemical synthesis, but Alpha01 uses ALCAR made through fermentation. This plant-friendly approach means the carnitine is not animal-derived, making the complex suitable for vegans who may get very little carnitine from their diet.

A Complete Daily Complex

Each four-capsule serving provides fermented acetyl L-carnitine 2,000mg, vitamin D3 from algae 2µg (40% NRV), riboflavin 4mg (286% NRV), niacin 4mg NE (25% NRV), vitamin B6 4mg (286% NRV), biotin 200µg (400% NRV), chromium as picolinate 80µg (200% NRV) and BioPerine black pepper extract 5mg.

Nutrients With Authorised Claims

Riboflavin, niacin and vitamin B6 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal energy-yielding metabolism. Chromium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels. Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function, the maintenance of normal bones and the normal function of the immune system. These authorised health claims show how each nutrient fits into the formula.

Vegan Through and Through

Vitamin D3 is often taken from sheep's wool lanolin, but this formula uses vitamin D3 from algae. The capsules are made from hypromellose, a plant-derived shell, with a little rice starch and safflower oil. The whole complex is suitable for vegans and vegetarians, with no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners.

Flexible Timing

Take four capsules daily with water. On training days, many people take two capsules before exercise and two afterwards. On rest days, try two capsules in the morning and two in the evening. Each pouch holds 120 vegan capsules, providing 30 servings, which is a full month of use.

Quality and Testing

Alpha01 is a UK supplement brand whose products are made in the EU to GMP food safety standards using non-GMO ingredients. Each batch is tested for heavy metals and microbial contaminants, with lab reports made available by the brand. The capsules are packed in a resealable, recyclable pouch that keeps them fresh and uses less plastic than a rigid tub.

Who Is It For?

This complex is popular with gym-goers, runners and active people, as well as those following a plant-based diet who want a vegan source of carnitine. Store the pouch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Food supplements should be used as part of a varied, balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
