Research has shown these 2 supplements taken together can help your me

There are several risk factors associated with the development of Alzheimer’s Disease. The researchers of the following study evaluated the effects of supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids alone or together with alpha lipoic acid, comparing them to a placebo on oxidative stress biomarkers in Alzheimer’s Disease (Shinto L, et.al., 2014).

It was a small study but interesting, and it went on for 12 months. The reevaluation after 12 months showed that the cognitive and functional decline slowed down more in the group that took the combination of omega 3 fatty acids and alpha lipoic acid.

This is another example showing that taking 2 supplements together can have a better effect than each of the supplements can have taken by themselves.

 For best results take 2 capsules once a day, This is more effective to ensure more of the lipoic is delivered to the tissues that need it since the liver eliminates it quickly. One of the main benefits of alpha lipoic acid is its ability to protect the nervous system. Research has shown improved symptoms of neuropathy from taking alpha lipoic acid. It is also an effective antioxidant.

 

The Better Fish Oil comes in the form of triglycerides which offers better stability to the fatty acids and prevents breakdown and oxidation.

The anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids are well known. Most people that eat a western diet can benefit from increasing the intake of Omega 3 fatty acid since their diet usually contains too much Omega 6 from vegetable oils and saturated fat from dairy and other animal sources. Most fish oils on the market are ethyl esters because that’s cheaper to produce.
