NP Acetyl-L-Carnitine & Alpha Lipoic Acid

New! Two great, health-benefitting nutritional supplements combined into one money-saving product!

I’m sure many of you have read the exciting article in the Reader’s Digest titled “The End of Aging”. Perhaps many of you have purchased the two nutritional supplements the article said could help slow or even reverse aging. This is indeed exciting news!

Here is a short overview of the article.
Bruce Ames, a professor of biochemistry at University of California at Berkely, has been studying damaged genes and how they can cause cancer. He saw a link between the rise in cancer and the increase in free radicals as we age. This caused him to wonder if there was a direct link between free radicals and aging.

What he found was that free radicals create a kind of cellular pollution that lowers our energy levels. Too much damaged DNA causes cell mutation – which can cause cancer – and also cell death. Both are signs of aging.

Through their research, Ames and his colleagues found a crucial link between oxidation (a result of too many free radicals), DNA mutation, and age. He says free radical oxidation doesn’t just rise with age – it causes aging! When mitochondria (tiny structures inside cells that manufacture most of the body’s energy) “leak” free radicals, the radicals end up damaging the mitochondria, which then leak even more free radicals. This vicious cycle gets worse as we get older – thus accelerating our aging!

Ames found that two very potent antioxidants, when added to the diets of old rats, made them act much younger – the equivalent of an 80 year old person looking and acting middle-aged! Ames said, “ The (rats) brain looked better and they were full of energy”.

Now You Too Can Benefit – Be and Look Younger
I know none of us want to look and act like rats, but there is no doubt that we all – no matter if we’re 40, 50, 60, 70, or 80+ - want to look younger and have more energy. More importantly, if we can lessen our odds of getting cancer or other age-related disease, then we want to do all we can to help.

The two nutrients that Ames used in his study, Alpha Lipoic Acid and Acetyl-L-Carnitine are readily available and provide many health benefits. Ames takes 200mg of Alpha Lipoic Acid and 500mg of Acetyl-L-Carnitine twice daily.
