AlaGym

Capsules

AlaGym is the food supplement based on Alpha Lipoic Acid, designed to provide support in the search for physical well-being, for athletes or simple lovers of well-being.

Alpha Lipoic Acid - Thioctic Acid or Vitamin N is a powerful antioxidant and its amphipathic characteristic (which is active in both aqueous and lipid environments) is able to protect the body from free radicals both in the extracellular and intracellular environment.

Alpha Lipoic Acid boasts numerous applications thanks also to the fact that as an antioxidant acts as a natural anti-inflammatory agent.

Promotes the reduction of fat mass;

gives a consistent contribution for the increase of lean mass;

plays a fundamental role in subjects characterized by insulin resistance;

support for the liver;

excellent ally against the signs of aging.

Its antioxidant power is such as to be able to reactivate the Vitamin C present in the body, Vitamin E and Glutathione. It also favors the entry of glucose into cells by increasing the recruitment of specific intracellular receptors for this sugar with a significant reduction in insulin resistance.

Lipoic Acid is found to be particularly useful for people with diabetes problems. Its intake helps the body to use glucose and at the same time plays an important role in regulating blood sugar. Most of the studies concerning this molecule have been conducted on fat cells and it is therefore even more precise to assert that Alpha Lipoic Acid allows better absorption of glucose at the cellular level by reducing its quantity in circulation and behaving like insulin.

- Lipoic acid is useful for safeguarding the liver especially for those who follow dietary habits that are not exactly healthy. Regarding the aspects that affect the liver, it is good to know that lipoic acid, due to its powerful antioxidant activity, thanks to the high sulfur content (used by the liver in detoxification processes) has the ability to protect it. The peculiarity of this acid, to work in both water-based and fat-based environments, makes it a particularly versatile compound.

- Lipoic acid is particularly useful for the treatment of skin wrinkles. The formation of wrinkles is due to collagen enzymes which are created when free radicals come into play. However, the presence of lipoic acid prevents the formation of these enzymes and counteracts them in the opposite way, thus improving the skin; it is even able to act in such a way as to remove the signs of aging that have previously appeared.

- In addition to an improvement in insulin sensitivity, another property of ALA would be to promote the process of fat loss. This could be related to the fact that it increases the uptake of glucose by insulin-sensitive cells, keeping blood glucose at a moderate level and preventing high insulin spikes. This could have important implications, because, as is known, insulin is the main hormone of storage or accumulation of stocks, and in addition to being responsible for the storage of fat, it also prevents its release from fat cells. So the theory holds that keeping insulin low with the use of ALA consequently reduces the inhibitory effect on fat oxidation.
