Cellular Antioxidant Reduced Form With Milk Thistle Extract & Alpha Lipoic Acid Vegetarian Formula More Info

Doctor's Best® Best Alpha-Lipoic Acid (150mg) is a health supplement that protects your body from free radicals, helps the body recycle antioxidants, and helps maintain good blood sugar levels. This supplement contains Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA, thiocitic acid), which is a natural nutrient that research has proven to improve the body’s immune, cardiovascular, nervous, and detoxification systems. This substance is naturally produced by the liver and other body tissues in small amounts, and it acts as a catalyst for many bodily chemical reactions. For example, when ALA is inside cell mitochondria, it improves glucose metabolism and directs calories into energy production.ALA also has other important functions besides catalyzing energy production. It also has multiple mechanisms for functioning and contains many pharmacological and antioxidant properties. Recent studies have shown that is can change the regulation of genes that control the survival of cells as well as inflammation and oxidative stress. Thus, this substance is both an enzyme and a potent antioxidant. While it may not directly benefit cells, it does help jumpstart cell function so that cells can perform the way they did when they were new. More Info

Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALC) is a cognitive enhancer and neuroprotective agent that protects against a wide range of age-related degenerative changes in the brain and nervous system. ALC is an ester of carnitine that modulates cellular concentrations of free coenzyme A and acetyl-coenzyme A, two compounds integrally involved in numerous cellular functions, including the transfer of fatty acids across mitochondrial membranes for energy production. Here is a summary list of the claimed effects of ACL: ALC or ALCAR reduces brown spots, a universal sign of aging. ALCAR reduces deterioration of brain cells associated with aging. ALCAR reduces risk of Alzheimer's Disease and may slow Progress. ACAR also reduces risk of Parkinson's Disease and may slow progress. Restores NMDA receptors. ALCAR reverses neuroendocrine aging. Restores nerve growth factor function. ALCAR restores mitochodrial activity and cardiolipin to more youthful levels. ALCAR facilitates both the release and synthesis of Acetylcholine. Why Alpha Lipoic Acid is Essential ALA is a vitamin-like compound, first isolated from potatoes. It was designated lipoic acid over 50 years ago, as it was commonly found associated with lipids, or fatty areas of the cell. ALA was subsequently found to be soluble in water and also able to penetrate lipid environments, a property lending considerable versatility to this nutrient. ALA is a nutrient that comes close to being a vitamin. Vitamins are nutrients required for health but, for the most part, produced in insufficient amount (or not at all) by the cells of the body. Under certain conditions of cellular stress, ALA may not be synthesized in sufficient quantities. Thus it could be classified a para-vitamin or conditionally essential nutrient. How does Bioperine™ work? The metabolic process that generates energy at the cellular level in our body is called thermogenesis. While thermogenesis has typically been categorized as a key factor in weight loss, to confine the scope of its function to this aspect alone is incomplete. Thermogenesis plays an integral role in our body's ability to properly utilize the daily foods and nutrients we take in. It sets in motion the mechanisms that lead to digestion and subsequent gastrointestinal absorption. Piperine, in the patented form of Bioperine™ enhances the body's natural thermogenic activity - hence the term Thermonutrient™. This enhancement may be explained as a means of increasing thermal energy sufficient to "power up" mechanisms related to thermogenesis. This in turn results in increased metabolic processes that create a "demand" for "supply" of a broad range of nutrients that contribute to metabolism, i.e. vitamins, minerals, herbals, amino acids, etc. It is as if Bioperine™ activates a metabolic paddle wheel, of sorts, that selectively provides a more efficient mode of nutrient transportation into the blood. Based on available research, piperine is unique in its thermonutrient activity. The Advantages of Bioperine™ Bioperine™ is the only s More Info

Alpha-lipoic acid (ala, thioctic acid) is a naturally occurring vitamin-like nutrient that has been intensely investigated as a therapeutic agent for a variety of conditions involving the body's nervous, cardiovascular, immune, and detoxification systems. it exists as two enantiomers or stereoisomers: r-(+)-lipoic acid (rla) and s-(-)-lipoic acid (sla). it is produced in small amounts in the liver and other body tissues, where it is needed by enzymes to catalyze numerous essential chemical reactions in the body. for instance, ala is essential inside the mitochondria of cells, where it is needed to metabolize glucose and direct calories into energy production.ala is considered to be a multimodal supplement because, aside from its enzymatic role in energy production, it acts by multiple mechanisms and displays diverse pharmacologic and antioxidant properties. recently discovered is ala's ability to switch the regulation of several genes linked to cell survival, inflammation and oxidative stress. so in addition to its enzymatic role, ala is a powerful antioxidant and performs a number of other vital functions related to its ability to modify the expression of various genes. ala is therefore not so much a direct benefit to cells, but rather an indirect aid that "kick starts" declining function in cells, helping them recover the functions that came more easily and naturally in the young. More Info
