Alpha lipoic acid

Description

CFN Alpha Lipoic Acid is a nutritional supplement with protective action on liver function and with important antioxidant properties.

Properties and benefits of Alpha lipoic acid

Alpha Lipoic Acid (lipoic acid, ALA) is a substance produced in small amounts by our body, which plays an important role in the metabolism of sugars and provides energy to cells. It has a protective action on liver function.

In the 1980s, Alpha Lipoic acid was discovered as a powerful antioxidant and there are those who maintain, like Dr. Lester Packer, that it is the ideal antioxidant. It is also known as “the master antioxidant” (master antioxidant). This is because it restores the ability of other antioxidants to scavenge free radicals, increasing their effectiveness. This is particularly the case with vitamin E, which is recycled in the body every time it neutralizes a free radical, preventing it from damaging cell membranes. It also restores the action of vitamin C, glutathione and Coenzyme Q10.

The molecular structure of ALA (alpha lipoic acid) makes it a versatile and unique nutrient. Its molecular weight (206) and its sulfur atoms are largely responsible for its functional capacity:

As a coenzyme in the energy process
As a powerful antioxidant
As a burner and remover of excess iron, copper and toxic heavy metals (cadmium, lead and mercury).

Oxide or free radicals are toxic metabolic waste substances that damage the body. These are not directly discarded by the body because they are combined with oxygen, an essential element for our body.

It is also known that this antioxidant can improve the sense of smell.

Benefits of Alpha Lipoic Acid:
Important studies have shown that Alpha Lipoic Acid, in the diet of Type II Diabetics, increased insulin levels by 30%, notably increasing the use of glucose in the blood.
Alpha Lipoic Acid enters the brain and directly protects cells where it is most needed. Once in the brain, Lipoic Acid increases glutathione levels, protecting it from free radicals.
Helps improve coronary health by increasing the efficiency of the muscle in question.
Protects capillary arteries and veins.
Alpha Lipoic Acid is considered the best antioxidant that protects the liver.
