Alpha Lipoic Acid: Give your skin a youthful glow

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a critical supplement to an anti-aging program. It is a substance found naturally in our bodies' cells. It's a powerful antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals in both the water and fat portions of the cell, helps in the prevention and repair of collagen damage, and controls inflammation caused by free radicals. Inflammation at the cellular level is what causes wrinkled, sagging skin and age-related diseases such as diabetes, arthritis and cardiovascular disease.

Alpha lipoic acid also helps boost the levels of glutathione, which is an important tripeptide antioxidant that is central to overall health and essential in proper function of the immune system. Further, alpha lipoic acid has the ability to recycle other important antioxidants in the body including vitamin C and Vitamin E and CoQ10.

There are several very good skin cream products containing alpha lipoic acid including:

• N.V. Perricone. M.D.
• Reviva's Firming Eye Serum
• Under Eye Repair with DMAE and Alpha Lipoic Acid by Age Advantage Labs
• Wrinkle Relief Alpha Lipoic Acid and Ester C Cream by Nature's Vision
• Wrinkle Serum with Alpha Lipoic Acid, DMAE & Ester C by Youthful Essentials
  
  

Some people also like to take alpha lipoic acid as a nutrional supplement, as recommended by Dr. Perricone.
