R-ALA 200
ALA increases your muscles uptake of glycogen. This increases muscle cell volume
and contributes to that full pumped feeling when you workout.
This is a very desirable effect as the increase in muscle glycogen also
increases other important nutrient transport that contributes to cell volume and
muscle growth.
ALA is not a thermogenic but it does appear to contribute to favorable body
composition changes. This is believed to be due to a nutrient partitioning
effect where nutrients are channeled more to lean tissue and away from fat
tissue.
ALA will help enhance the efficiency of many different supplements. One in
particular is Creatine HSC.
ALA will help enhance the absorption of creatine into the muscle cell by
providing a transport vehicle by it's unique ability to mimic insulin. As we
said in an earlier answer, you must use ALA in a capsule form and not in a
pre-mixed powder.
ALA is also one of the most potent antioxidants available. And, when taken with
other antioxidants it actually enhances their antioxidant abilities.
