Lipoic Acid in Combination with Acetyl-L-Carnitine Activates Fat Cell Metabolism

Fancy experiments with high tech equipment are now becoming the norm. Such research is beginning to unravel the complex mystery of genes and related proteins involved in metabolism. Acetyl-L-Carnitine has long been known to help metabolize fat. Lipoic Acid has long been known to help metabolize carbohydrate. A new study with fat cells show that the two used together, better than either alone, work synergistically to increase the metabolic rate of fat cells.

Lipoic Acid Reduces Hardening of Arteries, Boosts Weight Loss

R-Alpha Lipoic Acid is one of the hottest research nutrients, a powerful antioxidant that is also intimately involved in the metabolism of calories. Researchers from the Linus Pauling Institute and College of Veterinary Medicine at Oregon State University have completed animal studies clearly showing that “lipoic acid can inhibit formation of arterial lesions, lower triglycerides, and reduce blood vessel inflammation and weight gain – all key issues for addressing cardiovascular disease.”

ALC and R-Alpha Lipoic Acid Reduce Brain Aging

A detailed mitochondrial analysis of rats fed Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALC) and R-Alpha Lipoic Acid has shown that these nutrients prevented the age-associated decline in the number of mitochondria in brain cells as well as typical damage that occurs to brain cells with aging.

Nutrients Safely Boost Metabolism in Diabetic Rats

New concepts in the management of diabetes are taking center stage in our society because widespread dietary and lifestyle abuse has led to an epidemic of type II diabetes in children, teenagers, and young adults. The use of drugs to manipulate numbers and gene function within cells has thus far proven to be a miserable failure. Drugs do not restore health, and as a recent clinical trial proves the more aggressively they are used to treat diabetes the higher the risk for death.

R-Alpha Lipoic Acid Boosts Lifespan

A new animal study shows that R-Alpha Lipoic Acid has a favorable affect on metabolism that maintains much of the anti-aging profile of animals on a calorie restriction diet.

Tylenol Causes 650 Cases of Liver Failure in 2007

It would cause great pain to the medical establishment to suggest that liver toxic drugs in common use, such as Tylenol and antibiotics, should be consumed with antioxidants so as to protect against liver failure. For the 1600 Americans last year with acute liver failure, such a warning could have saved a lot of misery.

Nutrients Stop Cognitive Decline

Researchers at the University of Massachusetts have demonstrated that a mixture of fine quality dietary supplements (ALC, DHA, PS, and Lipoic Acid) can stop oxidative damage in the brains of animals, the type of damage that otherwise leads to cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s.

The Potential for Intelligence is Inherited

A unique brain-imaging study of identical twins and fraternal twins has shown that genes have a profound influence on the integrity of nerve cell connections, resulting in faster processing speed and potential for intelligence. The study identified that the health of the myelin sheathing of nerves was a key sign of brain health.
