Nutritional Supplements > AST Science Nutritional Supplements > Item 6      R-ALA 200 90 caps Mimics Insulin Powerful Antioxidant Enhances Glucose Utilization Enhance Amino Acid Transport Lowers Blood Sugar Product Description R-ALA 200 Mimics Insulin Powerful Antioxidant Enhances Glucose Utilization Enhance Amino Acid Transport Lowers Blood Sugar Increases Creatine Uptake 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.
