I tried ALCAR on a whim back in the beginning of March and let me tell you something... this stuff is simply unbelievable! Like nearly everyone else has said in their reviews, ALCAR makes you more alert, less tired, raises mental acuity and alertness, and provides a type of energy boost the likes of which I've never experienced before. It's a little bit like the boost associated with the Epherdrin products of old, only your heart doesn't beat any faster and your body doesn't get physically agitated. Yet somehow you have more energy- and not just for workouts. Any task you have to complete becomes more doable after taking some ALCAR. I've tried quite a few supplements over the years and nothing has had as much of a dramatic effect as this one. After I ran out of my supply in mid-March (and my next order got lost by either USPS or customs), I was off it for about 10 days- and I really felt the difference. My energy levels took a clear hit.
Bottom line: listen to the ALCAR reviews of people on this site, not just mine. I did and I'm never going back. You won't be sorry. Maybe in ten years the rest of the population will finally catch on to what kind of a "miracle supplement" this stuff is. And then it'll be banned. ;)
One last thing about dosage: I take roughly 1000 mg just after I wake up (one heaping quarter teaspoon) and around 800 mg (a quarter teaspoon, no heaping) just before going to bed. I never take more than that. Sometimes I skip the nighttime dose, but whenever I've done that, it's been a bit tougher waking up. |
