Dear Dee,
Alpha Lipoic Acid is not a vitamin, it is produced within the body.
ALA is a disulphide compound which acts as a cofactor in critical energy-producing reactions in the body.. No excess ALA seems to be manufactured by the body-----therefore, supplementation is required if one is to obtain a condition where ALA is circulating in a free state.
Most clinicians utilize ALA as a powerful antioxidant....principally administered as a dietary supplement. ALA is a very benign substance when used within any reasonable bounds. While 20 to 100 mg daily is a very common level, many use 500 to 800 (especially diabetics).
Some liver and diabetic challenges are addressed with 1500 to 2000 mg (usually administered IV by health professionals) daily.
Sincerely, Brooks Bradley.

We have, during a research effort circa 2000 through 2004.....experienced

very effective



Ancillary support for MANY toxin and liver enzyme insults, including those originating from chemical as well as biological challenges----through the simple expedient of Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA).
