Description
Acetyl-L-Carnitine, also known as ALCAR, is an amino acid with antioxidant properties that is key for energy production. Providing it to hard-working, active horses encourages optimal muscle function and recovery, as it enables the body to generate energy from fats. By maximizing energy efficiency, it ensures your horse’s muscles have a sufficient supply to perform and relax during and after rides. It additionally activates an enzyme that directs glucose into energy-generating pathways rather than storage, allowing it to be utilized as fuel for muscles instead of raising blood sugar levels. This makes it a smart support choice not just for performance horses, but also those with metabolic concerns. Along with diet and exercise, it may help your horse achieve a healthy weight. Lastly, acetyl-L-carnitine has antioxidant properties and plays a role in nerve cell production, supporting healthy nerve tissue and protecting against oxidative stress at the cellular level.
