Dr. Oz recommends Alpha Lipoic Acid as Your Lunch Fat Burner!
Lately, Dr. Oz has been featuring a lot of natural ingredients that we can use as a preventitive measure as well as to treat. Two of the 
biggest concerns people have are:
1. Anti-Ageing
2. Weight Loss
At Alive Health Centre, Morning Sun and Supplements Plus we have had many of these natural supplements for years, such as: Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), African Mango Extract, Raspberry Keytones, Relora, Phase 2, to name a few. Dr. Oz has brought much awareness to the natural health industry and it is wonderful to see allopathic medicine working in harmony with preventative medicine.
One of the latest Anti-Ageing Supplements Dr. Oz has been talking about is… Alive- Alpha Lipoic Acid.

When do you take it?
In Feb 2012 Dr. Oz recommended to take Alpha Lipoic Acid before your lunch! Why? Because it helps to burn off FAT. Dr. Oz discussed that ALA reduces inflammation in fat cells. When fat cells are relaxed, they let go of that fat.You also may have heard of ALA as “the miracle anti-oxidant” for its anti-aging effects. It’s an, ultra-potent antioxidant that helps fight future skin damage and helps repair past damage. ALA is UNIQUE and touted as THE “universal antioxidant” because it’s soluble in both water and oil, which permits its entrance to ALL parts of your cells being your best defence against free radicals! Externally, ALA diminishes fine lines, gives skin a healthy glow, and boosts levels of other antioxidants, such as vitamin C.
ALSO, Dr. N. Perricone in his book, The Wrinkle Cure, highly recommends Alpha Lipoic Acid both externally as a cream and internally as a supplement to maintain our youth and prevent wrinkles. It’s definitely clear that ALA is your answer to fighting free radicals inside and out!
