It is unique in that, unlike any other antioxidant, ALA is both fat and water soluble; thereby allowing it to operate in all environments in the body. ALA inhibits the "hydroxyl radical." The hydroxyl radical is considered to be the most damaging of the free radicals due to its ability to initiate heart disease. Adding to the myriad of benefits, ALA regenerates (through redox cycling) other antioxidants like vitamin C and vitamin E, thus helping to prevent a deficiency in any one of these vital nutrients. ALA also maintains and even increases our bodies' own antioxidant: glutathione. Glutathione's best attribute is its ability to protect us from cancer. Glutathione is the chief detoxifier for the human body. Through a process known as "conjugation" it attaches to deadly chemicals and escorts them out of the body and into the toilet. No other antioxidant confers so many benefits to users. The best natural sources of ALA are spinach, broccoli, and beef. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Supplemental ALA found at: http://health-fx.net/store/home.php?cat=253 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Live free of pandemic killers such as obesity, insulin resistance, cancer, heart disease, and many others!
