Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is both water- and fat-soluble, so it can enter all parts of a cell to neutralize free radicals. A naturally occurring nutrient, it also supports normal insulin function, and helps your body carry out proper blood sugar metabolic reactions.

Plus, ALA's many useful properties include boosting the activity of other vital antioxidants, including vitamin C, vitamin E, and CoQ10.

Take a high-potency multivitamin/mineral formula
The targeted nutrients I've listed above will work better for you if your body is functioning at its best. For that to happen, you need to provide proper nourishment and support to each and every cell.
