ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid) 60caps

Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a mitochondrial compound that can also be found in a variety of foods. Its primary role is to convert blood sugar (glucose) into energy using oxygen, a process referred to as aerobic metabolism. As a dietary supplement ALA has anti-inflammatory effects and is a potent antioxidant, meaning that it can neutralize free radicals that damage cells at the genetic level. ALA is referred to as: “universal antioxidant” because it is soluble in both water and fat, which allows it to work in every cell or tissue in the body. What is more, ALA regenerates other antioxidants including vitamin C, vitamin E, Q10, Glutathione.

Due to its effects on oxidation and inflammation, ALA has been linked to a variety of other health benefits, including immune system support, reduced skin aging, protection against heart diseases, liver diseases, diabetes, and neurological decline associated with aging.

Because ALA is a very potent antioxidant that can benefit our health in many ways:

• Provides protection against free radicals and reduces oxidative stress. Hence, ALA can reverse some of the oxidant damage related to the effects of aging.
• Helps to maintain optimal brain health and mental sharpness and promotes healthy nerve function.(could slow down the progression of memory loss & neurological decline associated with aging)
• Lowers heart disease risk factors
• Helps to maintain optimal brain health and mental sharpness and promotes healthy nerve function.
• Could aid in diabetes, because ALA can lower blood glucose(by increasing the speed in which the blood sugar is metabolized) and improves insulin sensitivity

By removing toxic metals from your body and recycling other antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E,CoEnzyme Q10, glutathione), ALA could further enhance your body’s natural anti-oxidant defenses.

Ideally take 1 capsule at meal times, with plenty of water, two times a day. (Daily dosage=2 capsules)
