How Does Acetyl L-Carnitine or ALC Work?

The first component of life extension complex Acetyl L-Carnitine (ALC) is a cognitive enhancer and neuroprotective agent that protects against a wide range of age-related degenerative changes in the brain and nervous system. ALC is an ester of carnitine that modulates cellular concentrations of free coenzyme A and acetyl-coenzyme A, two compounds integrally involved in numerous cellular functions, including the transfer of fatty acids across mitochondrial membranes for energy production.

ALC Benefits:

* Reduces Brown Spots, a universal sign of aging.
* Reduces deterioration of brain cells associated with aging
* Reduces risk of Alzheimer's Disease and may slow Progress.
* Reduces risk of Parkinson's Disease and may slow progress.
* Restores NMDA receptors
* Reverses Neuroendoctrine Aging
* Restores nerve growth factor function
* Restores mitochondrial activity and cardiolipin to more youthful levels
* Facilitates both the release and synthesis of Acetylcholine
* Extends life span

Why Alpha Lipoic Acid is Essential

ALA is a vitamin-like compound, first isolated from potatoes. It was designated lipoic acid over 50 years ago, as it was commonly found associated with lipids, or fatty areas of the cell. This life extension substance was subsequently found to be soluble in water and also able to penetrate lipid environments, a property lending considerable versatility to this nutrient.

ALA is a nutrient that comes close to being a vitamin. Vitamins are nutrients required for health but, for the most part, produced in insufficient amount (or not at all) by the cells of the body. Under certain conditions of cellular stress, ALA may not be synthesized in sufficient quantities. Thus it could be classified a para-vitamin or conditionally essential nutrient.

How does Bioperin work?

The metabolic process that generates energy at the cellular level in our body is called thermogenesis. While thermogenesis has typically been categorized as a key factor in weight loss, to confine the scope of its function to this aspect alone is incomplete. Thermogenesis plays an integral role in our body's ability to properly utilize the daily foods and nutrients we take in. It sets in motion the mechanisms that lead to digestion and subsequent gastrointestinal absorption. Piperine, in the patented form of Bioperine� enhances the body's natural thermogenic activity - hence the term Thermonutrient�.

This enhancement may be explained as a means of increasing thermal energy sufficient to "power up" mechanisms related to thermogenesis. This in turn results in increased metabolic processes that create a "demand" for "supply" of a broad range of nutrients that contribute to metabolism, i.e. vitamins, minerals, herbals, amino acids, etc. It is as if Bioperine� activates a metabolic paddle wheel, of sorts, that selectively provides a more efficient mode of nutrient transportation into the blood. Based on available research, piperine is unique in its thermonutrient activity.

Bioperine� is the only source of piperine to obtain patented status for its ability to increase the bioavailability of nutritional compounds. Bioperine� is also the only source of piperine to undergo clinical studies in the U.S. to substantiate its safety and efficacy for nutritional use.

UC Riverside Professor Receives First Age-Reversal Prize:

Stephen Spindler Receives Methuselah Mouse Award for Research on Calorie Restriction�s Role in Rejuvenation - January 5, 2005

RIVERSIDE, Calif. � www.ucr.edu � University of California, Riverside Professor of Biochemistry Stephen Spindler has received the inaugural Methuselah Mouse Rejuvenation Prize for his research in calorie restriction and its role in reversing aging in middle-aged laboratory mice, while extending their overall lifespan.

The Methuselah Foundation of Lorton, Va. presented Spindler the prize at a Nov. 21 ceremony during the 2004 Gerontological Society of America Conference in Washington, D.C. The foundation is a nonprofit organization of professional and nonprofessional volunteers who believe that the control of aging is foreseeable.

LIFESPAN EXTENSION COMPLEX�: a compound slowing the aging process

The aim of the prize is to speed the development of anti-aging interventions and promote public awareness of the prospects for them. According to a foundation statement, the research was �astounding because it worked on mice later in life.�

According to Spindler�s research, the fewer calories an animal consumes � provided malnutrition is avoided � the slower an animal ages and the lower the death rate from cancer, heart disease and diabetes. Spindler has served on several advisory groups and committees for the National Institute on Aging and National Institutes of Health.

He has been probing the life-extending effects of calorie restriction using advance gene chip technology, which is used to monitor and measure changes in gene expression. The major conclusions from his study are that many of the life-extension effects of calorie restriction happen rapidly and that these effects can be shown not only in young animals but also in older animals not previously on calorie restriction.

Spindler�s intervention extended the average and maximum lifespan of the mice by about 15 percent and reduced the number of deaths from cancer, which increases in risk with age. His prize is in one of two categories recognized by the Methuselah Foundation: postponement and reversal. The postponement prize is for the oldest-ever lab mouse while the reversal price, known as the rejuvenation prize, is for the best late-onset intervention.

The rejuvenation prize is considered more important for the short term. That is because while a variety of interventions can be developed to create strains of mice that will live exceptionally long lives, the techniques cannot be applied to humans who are already alive and aging.

Spindler�s prize-winning research was first reported in the April 13, 2004 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in a paper titled Temporal Linkage Between the Phenotypic and Genomic Responses to Caloric Restriction. He worked with scientists from the Campbell, Calif.-based BioMarker Pharmaceuticals, Inc., which is working to develop drugs that reproduce the beneficial effects of caloric restriction.

In awarding the prize to Spindler, Methuselah Foundation Chairman Aubrey de Grey, a biogerontologist with Cambridge University in the UK, noted the importance of such anti-aging research.

�Increased life spans in humans will result in increased knowledge to solve many of the problems we face,� said de Grey. Making people younger, he said, would also �make them more productive for longer lives.�
