This appears to be the old Juvenon diet supplement. Check the bottom of the link:
[h=4]Conflict of Interest[/b]Dr. Ames is one of the founders of Juvenon (http://juvenon.com/), a company that has licensed the University of California patent on acetyl carnitine + lipoic acid for rejuvenating old mitochondria (Ames and T. Hagen, inventors), sells acetyl carnitine + lipoic acid supplements, and does clinical trials on them. Ames founder's stock was put in a nonprofit foundation at the founding in 1999. He is director of Juvenon's Scientific Advisory Board, but reimbursement for that from Juvenon is given to the foundation.
There were never any serious clinical trials testing this product on humans; so these guys marketed it as a diet supplement. I have not seen any real evidence for it's efficacy other than anecdotes either.
