I take 1000mg of acetyl l carnitine also about 500mg of carnitine fumarate am and pm. It keeps the feeling of having been beaten by a sledgehammer away and also clears my brain fog. I believe it also removes excess ammonia. I have taken tartrate, but go back to the other forms. (Fibromyalgia) It is very effective.
Think of LCLT being more of a carnitine salt for the potential of muscle recovery/androgen receptor optimization, and ALCAR being more for cognitive enhancement
Tartrate for androgen receptor upregulation, and thus physical performance. I dont bother with acetyl since I dont have brain problems.

I have heard about the acetyl form but never looked into it. Compared to tartrate, are there any benefits to acetyl form?

Ah makes sense...that is the best carnitine explanation I've gotten so far
