Comment:
I have been taking acetyl L-carnitine for years and have found it to be very effective. It definitely helps me remember detailed information such as phone numbers, case numbers etc.It makes a difference in my memory and if I run out for a few days, I make sure I get on it. It's definitely worth using if you have difficulty in remembering things. I usually take 250 mg per day.

Comment:
For me a lessor dose was better. Did not follow manu. directions for two capsules daily. To much! Felt hyper and jittery. I take one capsule 2-4 times a week and my thinking is much more clear and my retention much improved. Energy level also up. Definetely clears the fog! I'm post menapause brought on by surgery 16 years ago (59 years old currently). I'm a believer!
