Acetyl l carnitine has a significantly more immediate and noticeable mental effect because it crosses into the brain much better. The mind boosting effect of acetyl l carnitine is often noticed within a few hours, or even within an hour. Most people report feeling mentally sharper, having more focus and being more alert. Some find a mild mood enhancement.

The typical daily dosage for long term use is 100 to 400 mg once a day, preferably in the early part of the day. Side effects of overstimulation and nausea may occur at dosages greater than 500 mg. Perhaps your dizzyness is 'overstimulation' in your mind?

Perhaps you need a lower dose.
