I have read that Alpha-lipoic acid is supposed to be useful as an anti-oxidant and can actually boost glutathione levels in the body more efficiently than taking a glutathione supplement.
Now boosting glutathione levels in the brain is supposed to help with depression and can counteract possible damage caused by ssri anti-depressants.
I must add that I have only read this in passing and have not had the opportunity to read any decent unbiased studies on this matter.
Has anyone else heard the same and are there any decent studies to back up these claims?
