Alpha Lipoic Acid 600mg 60 Capsules

Alpha Lipoic acid is a well-known natural substance found in certain foods and also produced in the human body. It has an impressive array of potentially beneficial mechanisms of action:  Alpha Lipoic acid is a potent and versatile antioxidant. It is a co-factor in a key biochemical pathway responsible for energy production in the cells (citric acid cycle). It inhibits cross-linking which is the formation of chemical bridges between proteins or other large molecules. Cross-linking contributed to the aging process by causing hardening of arteries, wrinkling of the skin and stiffening of joints. It has moderate anti-inflammatory effect. It has been shown to improve liver function, help regenerate liver cells, and reduce fatty liver. Finally, it has a capacity, albeit a modest one, to neutralize and remove from the body a variety of toxic metals. Alpha Lipoic acid supplements have been repeatedly demonstrated to be of benefit in a number of health conditions. Call the office to schedule
