Cognitive Acetyl L-Carnitine with Lipoic Acid
Cognitive Acetyl L-Carnitine with Lipoic Acid increases brain energy levels and may serve as a neuron protector against excitotoxicity and improves its function. It promotes brain repair and has shown to boost dopamine neurotransmissions and to raise glutathione levels. The dose is 750mg twice per day.
Reverse Aging … boost your energy
How would you like to have enough energy to do all the things you dream of doing? One of the best nutrients — alpha lipoic acid — can re-invigorate you and help you turn back the clock by 20 years or more.
Studies show alpha lipoic acid may practically reverse aging. Researchers tested it against 100 detoxification and antioxidant genes in mice. When given alpha lipoic acid, "their cognitive ability, behavior, and genetic expression are comparable to that of young animals." The animals weren't just living longer, they were living better.
How does it do it? A researcher at the Linus Pauling Institute found that alpha lipoic acid restores levels of glutathione to that of a young animal.
You probably already know that glutathione is a critical antioxidant and detoxifier. When glutathione levels decline, you become more susceptible to free radicals and other environmental toxins.
Researchers also found that alpha lipoic acid…
- Recycles vitamins C and E in your body, boosting their effectiveness.
- Helps detoxify your body of heavy metals, especially mercury and cadmium.
- "Kickstarts" declining function in cells that were more abundant in youth.
- Reduces mitochondrial degeneration. Protecting your mitochondria is crucial to good health and high energy levels. The slower they age, the slower you age.
- Soothes inflammation throughout your body, which helps with many degenerative health conditions.
In a recent study, researchers looked at the effect that the nutrient L-Carnitine had on the heart. One group took CoQ10 and L-Carnitine daily for 12 weeks. The other group took a placebo. The group taking both supplements showed significant improvements in their shortness of breath and fatigue and they exercised better too. They exercised better, too.
So, if you have any type of heart, cardiovascular or energy concerns, it’s one nutrient that should be part of your arsenal.
