"The
universal anioxidant"
Our bodies need protection from danger - from within and
without. Even a process as essential and fundamental to
life as eating and digesting food has destructive
potential. For example, when our bodies "burn"
fats, carbohydrates and proteins to release their
energy, various chemicals called free radicals are
formed. These free radicals can damage cell membrane,
other cellular structures and DNA.
Fortunately, nature
created alpha-lipoic acid to handle this problem. ALA is
both a coenzyme necessary for the metabolism of energy
from food and a powerful scavenger of free radicals.
