WHAT IS ALPHA LIPOIC ACID ?
A naturally occurring co-factor in the body, found most abundantly in red
meat.
It exists in a variety of locations in the body: intracellular,
extra-cellular and membranes.
Many individuals have insufficient amounts.
Its reduced form is Dihyrolipoic Acid (DHLA), and is essential for metabolic
process of energy (ATP) from food.
A potent antioxidant that destroys more "free radicals" that other
antioxidants.
A chelator of heavy metal ions, such as copper and iron as well as toxic
metals such as cadmium, lead and mercury.
Being both water and fat soluble makes it very bioavailable.
ALA (also know as thioctic acid) increases Glutathione levels in the cells,
and enhances the activity of other antioxidants, especially E and C.
It has had positive effects on many disorders, including diabetes, heart
conditions, liver disorders, cataracts, metal poisoning, and radiation
damage.
FUNCTIONS: As a very effective antioxidant, ALA helps prevent the
oxidative damage caused by free radicals, which are associated with the
process of aging and major health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes,
cancer, arthritis, cataracts and asthma.
DIABETES: ALA has been used safely for the treatment of diabetics in
Europe for over 30 years in doses of 300-600 mg. daily. Antioxidants such as
ALA and Glutathione prevent neuropathies associated with diabetes.
CARDIO - VASCULAR: Ischemia-reperfusion injuries, which occur in
conditions such as stroke, cardiac arrest and head trauma, result from the
release of free radicals during reoxygenation of tissue that has become
hypoxid. ALA is efficacious in preventing ischemia - reperfusion injuries
and may be important to patients who have strokes, cardiac infarction, and
open heart surgery.
ALA provides antioxidant protection against LDL's, helping to prevent fatty
deposits on arterial walls.
AIDS & HIV: ALA is effective in its antioxidant action, preventing
complications to patients with compromised immune systems, such as AIDS and
HIV patients.
By enhancing antioxidants Vitamins E and C and producing Glutathione, ALA
and DHLA enhance the immune response of HIV patients who are deficient in
most antioxidants.
These antioxidants scavenge free radicals that are responsible for
inactivating white blood cells necessary as a defense against foreign
bodies, may help inhibit replication of the virus and also help block the
activation of the virus.
CATARACTS: ALA enhances activity of Glutathione, Ascorbate and
Vitamin E levels, which have an effect on cataract prevention.
STIMULATE MUSCLE STRENGTH & ENERGY: ALA may decrease Nitric Oxide
release, and enhances the uptake of glucose into the muscle, prevents
glycation of proteins, and is essential for ATP production.
IMPROVES NERVOUS SYSTEM & MEMORY: Inhibits oxidation and glycation,
which cause the accelerated aging process in skin, blood vessels and
connective tissue.
LIVER DISORDERS: Alpha Lipoic Acid protects against liver damage from
caffeine and alcohol, and may have beneficial effects on those with
Hepatitis C and other liver disorders.
Directions: 1-3 capsules per day, or as needed. High amounts of Alpha
Lipoic Acid may deplete Biotin levels, therefore, 1-2 B Complete or B Long
are recommended daily. Vitamins and Minerals are recommended, such as
Montiff Vita Minz Plus.
