Alpha-lipoic acid has been called the \"universal\" antioxidant because it boosts glutathione levels in cells already within a normal range and has potent antioxidant actions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResearch has strongly implicated cellular oxidative damage caused by free radicals. What makes alpha-lipoic acid so effective as an antioxidant is its ability to quench free radicals in both aqueous and lipid environments. This ms that the antioxidant activity of alpha-lipoic acid is working in the extra-cellular fluid and also within the cell. It also has metal chelating ability, helping the body rid itself of accumulated ingested toxins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlpha-lipoic acid also is a cofactor for some of the key enzymes (alpha keto acid dehydrogenases) involved in generating energy from food and oxygen in mitochondria8-10 and thus plays a critical role in energy production within the cell's mitochondria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the most beneficial effects of alpha-lipoic acid is its ability to regenerate other essential antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, coenzyme Q10, and glutathione, and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). The evidence is especially strong for the ability of DHLA (dihydrolipoic acid, a reduced form of alpha-lipoic acid) to recycle vitamin E. This is apparently achieved directly by quenching tocopherol radicals or indirectly by reducing vitamin C or increasing the levels of ubiquinol (a derivative of CoQ10) and glutathione, that, in turn, helps regenerate tissue levels of vitamin E.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn clinical studies to date with alpha-lipoic acid, there have been no reported serious adverse side effects, even at high doses. Among the mild, reversible side effects found in some patients have been allergic skin reactions and possible hypoglycemia in diabetics. Please note that the R-lipoic acid provides a more biologically active form of lipoic acid than alpha-lipoic acid at only a slightly higher cost.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003eAlpha-Lipoic Acid With Biotin - 60 Caps.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlpha-Lipoic Acid And Biotin Food Supplement Capsules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eServing Size: 1 Capsule.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 90%;\" height=\"54\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 27.0773%;\"\u003eNutrient\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"right\" style=\"width: 51.4469%;\"\u003eRecommended Daily Dose (1 Capsule)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth align=\"right\" style=\"width: 20.7593%;\"\u003e%NRV\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.0773%;\"\u003eBiotin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd align=\"right\" style=\"width: 51.4469%;\"\u003e2500 µg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd align=\"right\" style=\"width: 20.7593%;\"\u003e5000%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.0773%;\"\u003eAlpha-Lipoic Acid\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd align=\"right\" style=\"width: 51.4469%;\"\u003e250 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd align=\"right\" style=\"width: 20.7593%;\"\u003e-\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eNRV - Nutrient Reference Value.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBiotin, Alpha-Lipoic Acid, Rice Flour, Gelatin, Vegetable Stearate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Use:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e Take One (1) Capsule In The Morning On An Empty Stomach, Preferably, Or As Recommended By A Healthcare Practitioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarnings:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e If You Are Taking Glucose Lowering Medication, Consult Your Healthcare Provider Before Taking This Product.
