Lose Weight With Alpha-Lipoic Acid
Alpha-lipoic acid(ALA) is an antioxidant that is produced in the human body, and hence is not an essential fatty-acid, and it is located in every cell. It assists the body’s production of ATP from glucose. ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) is the molecular structure used in the body for all activities that require energy. Antioxidants are substances that attack free radicals. Free radicals are harmful waste products produced when the body transforms food into energy. Free radicals cause chemical reactions that can damage cells in the body, making it harder for the body to fight off infections. They also damage body organs and are carcinogenic.
