ThioGel Is The World's Finest Source Of Orally Administered Alpha Lipoic Acid:


What Makes ThioGel Unique?



  • ThioGel is a "premium" source of alpha lipoic acid.
  • ThioGel performance and quality is unmatched.
  • ThioGel’s advanced formulation delivers the highest alpha lipoic    acid absorption & bioavailability with oral dosing.

  •           In the late 1990's, the remarkable properties of alpha lipoic acid were beginning to be recognized by a broader segment of the scientific community. Scientific reports from Germany demonstrated that alpha lipoic acid was effective in alleviating the symptoms of diabetic neuropathy when it was administered intravenously, but less effective upon oral administration. Recognizing the drawbacks associated with oral dosage forms of alpha lipoic acid, a project was initiated by our formulation scientists to develop a solubilized formulation that would deliver enhanced alpha lipoic acid blood-levels that are closer to levels achieved with alpha lipoic acid administered intravenously. ThioGel was developed as a result of ground-breaking formulation research. ThioGel has a 10-year track record of superior performance in the hands of physicians, holistic practitioners, and individual consumers.

    ThioGel: A Product Formulation You Can Trust



     

  • ThioGel products are produced in the United States in a state-of-   the-art pharmaceutical production facility that is compliant with     FDA Good Manufacturing Practices.
  • The raw material alpha lipoic acid used in ThioGel is obtained    from commercial ALA pioneer Antibioticos in Italy.
  • Antibioticos alpha lipoic acid has been used in extensive   laboratory, animal, and clinical studies and has been used in    ThioGel for 10 years.

  •           Even though the Antibioticos alpha lipoic acid costs more than five times the cost of Chinese sources, the proven safety and efficacy of the Antibioticos ALA outweighs any economic benefit from using Chinese-source material. Emphasizing patient safety is particularly important in a situation where large quantities of the active ingredient are consumed over long periods of time. The management and staff of Ethical Alternative Products firmly believes in the effectiveness and quality of ThioGel products. We welcome calls or E-Mails to discuss the features and benefits of our unique product portfolio, and are always willing to answer any questions related to the use of our products.

    ThioGel's Purpose: Getting The Miracle Molecule Where It Wants To Go.

    “In a philosophic sense, it is the destiny of the alpha lipoic acid molecule to enter the bloodstream and be distributed to all cells in the body, to perform its anti-oxidant and other biologic functions. The primary impediment to fulfilling this destiny is the poor solubility of crystalline forms of the compound.


  • If a crystalline substance is soluble in water, it is broken down to a molecular form when it is dissolved, and depending on molecular size and a variety of other factors, the molecules will in large part be absorbed in the intestines.

  • Crystalline substances that are poorly soluble in water undergo a solubilization process in the gut, but the break-down of the crystals is limited and variable. Crystals will not pass through the intestinal membrane, only molecules will enter the circulation.

  •         Formulation scientists have devised a variety of means to break-down poorly soluble substances to enhance absorption and bioavailability. The scientists who

    ThioGel Bioavailability

    developed the ThioGel solubilized formulation, performed ground-breaking work on the unique amphipathic structure of alpha lipoic acid, achieving a molecular dispersion that facilitated absorption in the intestines. The ThioGel micelle structure was demonstrated to result in a two to three-fold increase in plasma levels of alpha lipoic acid, versus several crystal (powder) based products. Bioavailability studies were conducted on the ThioGel formulation in rabbits and humans using 50 mg and 400 mg doses. Bioavailability, which is defined as the "extent to which the active moiety enters the systemic circulation, thereby gaining access to the site of action", was substantially greater for the ThioGel formulation vs. the powder-based products.

            Almost all alpha lipoic acid products are formulated as capsules or tablets, using powdered raw material alpha lipoic acid. There are no good reasons to formulate alpha lipoic acid products in this manner, but there is a considerable saving in manufacturing cost. Kinesiology studies repeatedly show that ThioGel is the favored source of alpha lipoic acid, no doubt because it gets more of the alpha lipoic acid molecule to where it is destined to go.

    The ThioGel Story


    Dr. Gerald A. Bruno, Ph.D.

    Alpha Lipoic Acid

    The Miracle Molecule

    • Only a few health-conscious individuals are aware of the remarkable natural substance called alpha lipoic acid (aka thioctic acid), and even fewer know that alpha lipoic acid possesses life-enhancing biological properties beyond its broad anti-oxidant activity.
    • It is perhaps a testament to our times that such a substance is virtually unknown, while certain decidedly less valuable drug entities that are heavily advertised in the lay media, are household names. It is safe to say that if the alpha lipoic acid molecule could be patented, and the patent were owned by a multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical company, the vast majority of our population would be asking their doctor "if it was right for them".
    • Alpha lipoic acid is a naturally occurring substance that was discovered in the early 1950's by Dr. Irwin Gunsalvas whose work led to its use in the treatment of chronic liver disease in the 1970's.
    • Thousands of scientific studies have since been undertaken to characterize the alpha lipoic acid molecule and to explore its biological properties in laboratory, animal and human studies.
    • Prominent scientists who have contributed to a better understanding of the alpha lipoic acid molecule, include Dr. Bruce Ames (University of California, Berkeley) who did the pioneering work on the use of alpha lipoic acid, coupled with acetyl-L-carnitine, to delay aging, through a beneficial effect on mitochondrial function,
    • Dr. Tory Hagen (Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University) whose work has focused attention on the many biological properties of alpha lipoic acid that he believes slow down the "process" of aging and
    • Dr. Burton Berkson (Integrative Medical Center of New Mexico), whose work encompassed the use of alpha lipoic acid in combination with silymarin and selenium to protect the liver from the hepatitis c virus and other liver toxins.
    • Alpha lipoic acid stands out among the valuable anti-oxidants because of its unique fatty acid chemical structure.
    • Alpha lipoic acid is commonly referred to as the "universal antioxidant' or the "anti-oxidants anti-oxidant", because it is soluble in both the aqueous and lipid compartments of the body.
    • Alpha lipoic acid is effective in regenerating the body's natural anti-oxidants, most notably glutathione.
    • The superior anti-oxidant properties of alpha lipoic acid alone would support our characterizing it as a miracle molecule, but more recent research has shed light on a wide range of other biological properties with corresponding functions beneficial to a "healthy lifespan".
    • Imagine consuming a molecule that will help you deal with a serious age-related condition, that has numerous side effects that are also beneficial to restoring a healthy balance. In today's world that would surely qualify as a miracle.
