I started taking it after reading this article, particularly the section on nutrition: http://www.wellnessresources.com/hea...tes_take_note/

Acetyl-L-carnitine is the only substance mentioned that both increases the good stuff and decreases the bad stuff they mention.
I feel that if I had taken ALCAR right after the concussion, I'd never have went through PCS. The research on immediate use following injury is astounding, proof that it protects the neurons at that critical stage as well as helping them recover in the weeks and months after.

Glad to hear you're also enjoying the benefits of ALCAR in speeding recovery. You got yourself an informed doctor.
