Description: Sci-Fit's Alpha Lipolic Acid (ALA), also known as thioctic acid, is a disulfide compound that is a cofactor in vital energy producing reactions in the body furthermore, it is a powerful antioxidant. Alpha Lipolic Acid has been shown to increase ATP production in the mitochondria due to its role in the oxidation of pyruvate and alpha-ketoglutarate, leading to higher energy production.
Alpha Lipoic Acid is extremely neuroprotective. In Germany, Alpha Lipoic Acid is an approved treatment for diabetic neuropathy. Moreover, there is work suggestive of some mild benefits in the treatment of several neurodegenerative disorders, including but not limited to, Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's Disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Huntington's Disease. Alpha Lipoic Acid is also cardio protective.
Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take 1 capsule one to three times daily or as recommended by your physician.
Warnings: This product is not intended to cure, treat, diagnose or prevent any disease. Diabetics or anyone with insulin sensitivity should only take under a physicians supervision. Do not take if pregnant or lactating
Description: Alpha Lipoic Acid, also called Thioctic Acid, is active in all the tissues of the body and in its cellular compartments. Alpha lipoic acid recycles both fat and water soluble antioxidant vitamins, improves sugar metabolism and energy production, promotes the incorporation of cysteine into glutathione and combines synergistically with other antioxidants for increased benefits. Thus it is known as the ideal or universal antioxidant and free radical scavenger.
Alpha lipoic acid is a cofactor in the multienzyme complex that catalyzes the last stage of the process called glycolysis. Glycolysis is the first step in converting blood sugar (glucose), which is obtained from carbohydrates and proteins, into energy in a form that the body can use. Although alpha lipoic acid is found in foods, such as liver and yeast, there are no foods rich enough in alpha-lipoic acid to serve as good sources.
Description: This powerful metabolic antioxidant is unique in that it is both fat and water-soluble, can travel to any cell in the body and is therefore one of our most readily available oxidation destroyers.
The universal antioxidant as its commonly referred to, Alpha Lipoic Acid (or ALA) remains one of the most widely used and trusted free radical fighters to date. Naturally enhancing to the way our body uses B vitamins, ALA is also vital to the production of energy from the proteins, carbohydrates, and fats we take in each day.

The Inside Scoop: This is a nice product to add to any serious bodybuilding or fitness program. In particular, ALA will help enhance the absorption of creatine into the muscle cell by providing a transport vehicle by it's unique ability to mimic insulin.
Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take one capsule three times daily with meals. For enhanced creatine effectiveness, take 2 capsules with 1 serving of Creatine HSC 30 minutes after workouts or athletic events.
Warnings: The manufacturer has listed no warnings for this product.

Description: Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that is naturally produced in the body. Unlike other antioxidants lipoic acid is both fat and water-soluble and is easily transported across cell membranes. This unique quality offers protection against free radicals both inside and outside the cell while other antioxidants may provide only extracellular protection*. Lipoic acid is able to regenerate other antioxidants like vitamin E, vitamin C and glutathione (after scavenging free radicals). Lipoic acid has shown great benefits in cardiovascular health.
Ingredient Details: (Amount per 1 capsule or tablet) Alpha-Lipoic Acid 300mg
Suggested Use: Take 1 capsule daily or as recommended by a licensed health care professional.
Warnings: * These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease
Description: Alpha Lipoic Acid is an incredible antioxidant which holds uniquefree radical quenching properties.
Lipoic Acid, inits reduced form in the body, acts as both a fat and water soluble antioxidant, supporting Vitamins C and E at the cellular level. More recent studies show alpha Lipoic Acid enhances glucose uptake activity.
Suggested Use: Take 1 capsule daily with a meal or as directed by healthcare professional.
Warnings: These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.
Description: Alpha-Lipoic Acid is a powerful fat and water-soluble antioxidant. It directly recycles vitamin C and indirectly recycles vitamin E, providing additional antioxidant protection. It is also an important component in the energy production process in the cells. In recent research, 600 mg of alpha-lipoic acid daily was found to decrease plasma LDL oxidation. Source Naturals ALPHA-LIPOIC ACID TIMED RELEASE is designed to be released gradually throughout the day.
Suggested Use: 1 capsule daily at a mealtime. For maximum results include vitamin B complex, magnesium and coenzyme Q10 with alpha-lipoic acid in your nutrition program.
Warnings: If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your health care professional before using this product
Description: Many nutritionist and researchers refer to Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) as the 'universal antioxidant' based on its fat/water solubility. This allows it to travel to virtually any cell in the body to quench cell damaging oxidation. In addition, ALA has been shown to increase the free radical fighting abilities of other vitamins and antioxidants, especially C and E. ALA 600 mg uses only the highest grade Alpha Lipoic Acid available, and delivers it in a high potency that has been proven safe in studies. To further support antioxidant activity, we've added 30 mg of Grape Seed Extract and 5 mg of Bioperine, a potent compound that helps enhance the absorption of ALA.*
