Tetradecyl Thioacetic Acid Review

Tetradecyl Thioacetic Acid is a synthetic fatty acid that has been used today as a nutritional supplement. Its mechanism of action is being attributed by acting as a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha agonist and increases mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. In studies involving rodent subjects, Tetradecyl Thioacetic Acid has shown to reduce inflammation as well as to prevent high fat diet induced adiposity and insulin resistance. However, further researches and clinical studies should still be conducted among human subjects. Tetradecyl Thioacetic Acid is categorized under Dopaminergics. It is also known as TTA.
