Alf had muscles like jelly that were going away fast. He has DSLD. We started him on ALC because the J/AAKG was helping his pain and motor function, but it wasn't bulking him back up. The ALC did, within months. The muscle he rebuilt is not jelly-like, and he looks like a normal horse again.

I'd say more, but late for a wedding! Dr. Kellon can tell you about Alf if you want to know in more detail.

Blue, whose feet keep him from moving much though he is free stalled, still has good muscle. I have to credit it to the ALC since it sure isn't exercise.

I didn't expect any noticeable changes with the addition of a
specific supplement - I believe the overall feed & supplement
combination (including ALC) Dr. Kellon suggested for Romke was
instrumental in his current obvious well being. I hope he will
continue to thrive on this feeding program.

Mr.Thewell is stalled for 8 hours a day so that he can eat his food
(and not the other ponies) and not eat grass! That should change next
Saturday when the trucks come in and the dirt paddock will finally
become a reality! He is not lame but since he foundered in April and I
was told that it will be a year before we can hope for him to do any
kind of exercise. Should I put him on ACL? He is 36" and probably get
some exercise on the 1/2 acre where the dirt paddock will be?

Cindy,

Are you feeding Acetyl carnitine along with AAKG and J herb? I thought
that the ALCAR was a replacement for the AAKG ?????????? That it
affected Neuropathic pain better for some horses. I am really confused.
(like that's unusual)

Yes. ALC can be fed with aakg and jiaogulan.

Yes, he gets all three...J/AAKG and ALC. The J/AAKG is given morning and night by oral syringe, and the ALC is mixed into his supper. But he has DSLD and had lost all his muscle.

How does one determine that ALC would be useful?

THANK YOU, Joan and Cindy,

Yes. ALC can be fed with aakg and jiaogulan.

Just one more thing! Do they both affect Neuropathic pain in different
ways? Caillou seems to be doing pretty good on the ALCAR, with her
vascilating on foot pain, I thought the ALCAR was better for her. BUT,
so many variables, trims, infections, etc. etc. Would it be worth a
shot to try both? Can the ALCAR be split doses (that is how I have been
feeding it)?

Thanks again,

Marie, Caillou and Player

Something that I have wondered about, but never asked: What is the
difference between Acetyl L-Carnitine and L-Carnitine Fumerate and why
is ACL preferreed over LCF? It's something I haven't been able to
figure out on my own.
