Is this the free form version of acetyl l carnitine?

Hi Alfons,Short answer, yes it is. It is simply carnitine bound by acetyl; this highly bioavailable form of L-Carnitine can cross the blood-brain barrier. There are no other amino acids present, so this is considered the free-form version. Hope this helps! Thanks for your interest!Customer Service-Vitamin Experts

Are the now acetyl l-carnitine produced in the usa and is it printed on the label?

NOW Acetyl L-Carnitine is currently sourced from India and China. It is processed & packaged at NOW's facilities in the USA. To ensure quality control, they rigorously test for heavy metals and other impurities before it is imported, after it arrives in the states, and after the final product is manufactured. In addition, they are audited and third-party certified by UL LLC (formerly known as “Underwriters Laboratories”) as meeting federal cGMP regulatory requirements for dietary supplement manufacturing. They are also audited by the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for GMP compliance.

Does this contain soy?

The back of the bottle states it is not manufactured with Soy. Hope that helps...

Is this the same as "N-Acetyl"?

No, it is not. They have different properties and effects.
