How it helps those with Long COVID
How it helps those with Long COVID
Individuals with long COVID often experience persistent fatigue, cognitive difficulties, and neuropathic discomfort. Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) plays a crucial role in mitochondrial energy production and has neuroprotective properties. Supplementation with ALC may help alleviate fatigue by enhancing cellular energy levels and improving cognitive function. Additionally, ALC supports nerve health, which may reduce neuropathic pain and discomfort associated with long COVID.
Scientific Explanation
Scientific Explanation
Acetyl-L-carnitine is an acetylated form of L-carnitine that readily crosses the blood-brain barrier. It facilitates the transport of long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria, enhancing ATP production and supporting cellular energy metabolism. ALC also promotes the synthesis of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter essential for learning and memory. Studies have indicated that ALC supplementation can improve symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome and may be beneficial in managing post-COVID-19 fatigue. Furthermore, ALC has been shown to support nerve regeneration and reduce neuropathic pain, which could be advantageous for individuals experiencing nerve-related symptoms post-COVID-19.
