A semi-essential amino acid As a rule, our body forms the semi-essential amino acid l-carnitine from l-methionine and l-lysine, but a lot can go wrong during this conversion process. Factors such as surgery, diet, rapid growth or heavy sports can also cause a semi-essential amino acid to become essential. The speed at which our body absorbs the amino acid is then insufficient to meet our needs. Vegetarians and vegans are prone to imbalances In addition, sufficient carnitine levels can be difficult to achieve, especially for vegetarians and vegans. The semi-essential amino acid is mainly found in animal proteins; meat and dairy are the main sources. So if you follow a lifestyle with little to no animal products, supplementation with Acetyl-L-Carnitine 500 mg can be of added value.

We find Vitamin B11 - also known as folic acid - mainly in green vegetables. Spinach, Brussels sprouts and broccoli are the richest sources, but eggs, whole wheat bread and various types of meat also contain significant amounts of folic acid. Our Active Folic Acid contains 400 mcg of Quatrefolic®, the best absorbable folic acid available worldwide. An extremely accessible dosage for those who want to become pregnant, or are already pregnant! Folate is the biologically active form of folic acid Folic acid is the synthetic form of vitamin B11. Folate is the so-called biologically available or active form of folic acid and therefore much better absorbable. Before our body can absorb folic acid, it has to go through two conversion processes. First from folic acid to dihydrofolate (DHF), then to tetrahydrofolate (THF) and finally to folate (5-MTHF). When you take folate in a supplement, it is immediately available to our body and therefore much more effective!
