Alpha lipoic acid is known as the "universal antioxidant" because of its unique solubility in both water and fat. It has the ability to conserve and prolong the life of vitamins C & E in the body, increasing their effectiveness. Alpha lipoic acid is also an excellent metal detoxifier, particularly for mercury and cadmium, which it binds to and neutralizes for excretion.

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)

Alpha Lipoic Acid serves as a coenzyme in the energy production process in the cells which can provide quick bursts of energy. Alpha Lipoic Acid is unique in that it is both water and fat soluble which allows it to enter all parts of the cell to neutralize free radicals. Alpha Lipoic Acid contributes to invigorating mental and physical energy and a reduction in muscle fatigue. Dr. Lester Packer, a leading researcher in the area of antioxidants and a professor of molecular and cell biology at the University of California at Berkeley says "Alpha-Lipoic acid could have far-reaching consequences in the search for prevention and therapy of chronic degenerative diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease" .... "and because it’s the only antioxidant that can easily get into the brain, it could be useful in preventing damage from a stroke".

Common uses for supplemental alpha Lipoic Acid:

Currently used in Europe to treat peripheral nerve degeneration (neuropathy) resulting from diabetes.
May play a role in controlling blood sugar.
May help prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes.
Important for the production of energy inside the cell by utilizing sugar to produce energy contributing to mental and physical stamina.
Neutralizes free radicals. Unlike Vitamin C which is water soluble and Vitamin E which is fat soluble, alpha Lipoic Acid is both water and fat soluble which allows it to enter all parts of the cell to neutralize free radicals.
May help reduce LDL (bad) blood cholesterol.
May help improve memory.
Chelates (grabs) heavy metals and binds them reducing these oxidants from blood system.
Inhibits Glycation which is responsible for accelerated tissue damage.
Recycles and enhances the effects of other antioxidants such as Vitamin E and Vitamin C.
Significantly increase survival in rats that have suffered a stroke if given before the stroke occurs.
Prevents tissue damage and death after a heart attack.
Not only does it act as an antioxidant itself, it also stimulates production of glutathione (an antioxidant produced by the body), giving cells a double dose of antioxidant.
Easily absorbed when taken orally and once inside cells is quickly converted to its most potent form, dihydrolipoic acid.
Because both alpha lipoic acid and dihydrolipoic acid are antioxidants, their combined actions give them greater antioxidant potency than any natural antioxidant now known.
Important for regulating aspects of the immune system, in particular immune cells called T-lymphocytes.
May be useful in relieving syptoms of stomatopyrosis, or Burning Mouth Syndrome (BMS).

Suggested dosage for R-Alpha Lipoic Acid is 100 mg two to three times daily.

ALPHA-LIPOIC ACID MAY HELP REDUCE INFLAMMATION

October 11, 2002. The incidence of inflammatory diseases such as arthritis increases with age. Free radicals promote inflammatory reactions, which antioxidants have been successful at diminishing. Scientists recently stimulated the inflammatory response of white blood cells, resulting in an increase of Intracellular Adhesion Molecule 1 (ICAM-1), which encourages white blood cells to stick to other cells, thereby inflaming tissues. Alpha-lipoic acid, a potent antioxidant, was then added to the mix. Researchers said the acid reduced the activity of ICAM-1 to levels in normal, un-stimulated cells in a dose-dependent manner. It also lowered the activity of NFkB (NFkB can increase the activity of genes responsible for inflammation). According to the study, these changes suggest that alpha-lipoic acid may help reduce the effects of inflammatory diseases such a rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis.
