Product Description
Alpha-Lipoic Acid is a powerful antioxidant that is soluble in both fat and water. It directly recycles vitamin C and indirectly recycles vitamin E, providing additional antioxidant protection. It is also an important component in the energy production process in the cells. Alpha-lipoic acid is a coenzyme that assists in the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-coA. Acetyl-coA is the beginning point for the Krebs cycle, one of the body's main energy production cycles, which produces the high-energy molecule ATP. Alpha-lipoic acid supports the immune system and also supports healthy liver function.
Health Benefits
Alpha-lipoic acid is unique in its ability to reach the majority of the body's systems. It has this characteristic because alpha-lipoic acid is both water soluble and fat soluble. This enables alpha-lipoic acid to be biologically active in the lipid environment of the cell membrane and the aqueous environment of the cell's interior. It therefore offers a high level of protection from a variety of damaging free radicals.
In fact, alpha-lipoic acid has been used for nearly thirty years in Europe to treat peripheral nerve degeneration, lower cholesterol, detoxify the liver, and to help diabetics control blood sugar levels. Moreover, alpha-lipoic acid has been found to help protect the mitochondria and the DNA throughout the aging process. In protecting the functionality of the mitochondria, one may be able to effectively combat the effects of aging.
Suggested Use
1 to 4 tablets daily at a mealtime. For maximum results, include vitamin B complex, magnesium and coenzyme Q10 with alpha-lipoic acid in your nutrition program.
