During menopause and andropause, the levels of hormones that stimulate the production of the neurotransmitter ACETYLCHOLINE, responsible for good memory, concentration and lucidity, drop considerably. This is why people who are in this stage of life often notice how their retention decreases and forgetfulness becomes present. Many people say “it’s because of age” and yes, but no, it is an effect of age. However, we should not get used to these situations. The ideal is to give our body the necessary nutrients to counteract this deficiency. The amino acid L-Carnitine is the most effective therapy to prevent brain aging as it protects neuronal cells from the effects of aging.
Remember that antibiotics cause an immediate deficiency of L-carnitine in the blood, seriously affecting our brain.
Acetyl-L-Carnitine is an antioxidant that prevents the peroxidation of brain lipids, that is, it prevents the brain, which is mostly made up of fat, from becoming “rancid”. At the same time, it reduces lipofuscin, a dark oxidized fat from cellular waste, which interferes with its functioning by deteriorating the dendrites of neurons. Lipofuscin is the pigment that also accumulates on the back of the hands, producing “age spots.” Acetyl-L-Carnitine prevents this formation.
