Alpha Lipoic &
L-Carnitine 500mg

Discovered in 1951,
alpha lipoic acid (ALA)
was found to play an
important role as a
co-enzyme in the Krebs
cycle and in the
production of cellular
energy. In the late
1980s, researchers
realised that this
remarkable co-enzyme was
also a powerful
sulphur-containing
antioxidant. ALA is often
referred to as the
universal antioxidant as
it neutralises free
radicals in both the
fatty and watery parts of
body cells, in contrast
to vitamin C (which is
water soluble) and
Vitamin E (which is fat
soluble). ALA is also
especially eff ective in
recycling other
antioxidants back to
their original state
after they detoxify free
radicals. Acetyl
l-carnitine (ALC) occurs
naturally in the brain,
kidney and liver. It
plays an important role
in the transfer and
utilisation of long-chain
fatty acids in the
mitochondrial matrix,
the powerhouse of cells,
where they are oxidised
for the production of
energy. Both ALA and ALC
are not normally
considered as essential
nutrients because the
body can manufacture
them, however, the
natural levels of both
nutrients in the body
gradually diminish with
age. A combination of ALA
and ALC may be preferred
by athletes, the elderly
and generally those who
wish to reduce oxidative
stress, sustain
performance, energy
levels and optimise
cognitive
function. Suitable for:
Kosher, vegan and
vegetarian diets. As a
