Alpha Lipoic
What are the pros and cons of taking Alpha Lipoic Acid and what is the best way to take it-as in dosage and?

combined with what other supplements?

What it does?

Alpha-lipoic acid affects nearly every cell in the body. It assists all of the B vitamins — including thiamin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, and niacin — in converting carbohydrates, protein, and fats found in foods into energy the body can store and later use. Alpha-lipoic acid is a cell-protecting antioxidant that may help the body recycle other antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E, boosting their potency. Thanks to its unique chemical properties, alpha-lipoic acid is easily absorbed by most tissues in the body, including the brain, nerves, and liver, making it valuable for treating a wide range of ailments.

Forms: Tablet, and Capsule
Alpha-lipoic acid can be purchased as an individual supplement or part of a general antioxidant booster, along with vitamins C, E, and other antioxidants. Look for it on the ingredients list; it may also be called thioctic acid.

Common Uses-
Helps treat numbness, tingling, and other symptoms of nerve damage in people with diabetes or other conditions.
Protects the liver in hepatitis, alcohol abuse, or exposure to poisons or toxic chemicals.
Aids in preventing cataracts.
May help preserve memory in Alzheimer’s disease.
Serves as a high-potency antioxidant and possible immune booster, combating a wide range of disorders, including psoriasis, fibromyalgia, and AIDS.

Dosage: To treat specific disorders:
Alpha-lipoic acid is usually taken in doses of 100 to 200 mg three times a day.
For general antioxidant support: Lower doses of 50 to 150 mg a day may be used.

Guidelines for use: Alpha-lipoic acid can be taken with or without food. No major adverse effects have been reported.

Possible side effects:
Alpha-lipoic acid appears to be very safe, and there have been no reports of serious side effects in people taking it. Occasionally, the supplement may produce mild gastrointestinal upset, and in rare cases, allergic skin rashes have occurred. If side effects appear, lower the dose or discontinue using the supplement

Warnings:

For people with diabetes, the use of alpha-lipoic acid may require a change in insulin or other medications.
Reminder: If you have a medical condition, talk to your doctor before taking supplements.

    I think the main difference is the type of radioactive particles which are emitted e.g. alpha particle/helium nuclei for alpha-decay and beta particle/electron for beta-decay. in alpha-decay the nucleus disintegrates, and in beta-decay the nucleus is converted…
    Also alpha-decay is meant to occur in heavier elements.

    For the second bit: natural radioactive decay occurs naturally due to an unstable nucleus, but nuclear fission doesn't occur naturally. The nucleus of the element has to be hit by a neutron before fission can occur. on earth this is slow and spontaneous, so fission is usually artificially induced.

    hope this helps

    Great, simple-to-comprehend video. Some of us become vegetarian because we love animals and do not want to be part of a food chain of violence in the killing of them for consumption. Others choose this diet for health reasons. We all are aware of antibiotics and growth hormones fed to livestock, which remain in the meat. Also, meat, particularly chicken, developes carcinogens as it cooks. This is not always understood by the general public.
