Product Description
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a versatile‚ fat- and water-soluble nutrient with significant antioxidant activity. Although the body can produce alpha lipoic acid‚ this production declines with age.
ALA‚ a sulfur-containing compound found in human cells‚ is essential for energy production within the mitochondria and provides protection both inside and outside the cell. It has the unique ability to regenerate and extend the biochemical life of other antioxidants‚ such as vitamins C and E‚ glutathione‚ and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). This makes it crucial in combating oxidative stress and free radical formation. As a coenzyme‚ ALA is necessary for glucose breakdown‚ aiding energy metabolism.
This nutrient has been shown to promote vascular and connective tissue health‚ support cellular structures and the nervous system‚ and help maintain healthy liver function‚ lipid levels‚ and blood glucose levels within normal ranges. ALA has been studied for its role in circulatory function‚ particularly in the nervous system.
Supporting healthy aging‚ ALA reduces oxidative stress in the brain‚ eyes‚ and heart. It also neutralizes free radicals‚ protecting the elastin and collagen in the skin. For athletes‚ ALA promotes energy production in muscles and directs calories into energy production.
Provides whole-body‚ multi-functional antioxidant activity to support healthy‚ well-functioning cells:
• Coenzyme for glucose uptake and utilization
• Promotes healthy vascular and endothelial function
• Supports regeneration of vitamins C and E
• Promotes healthy intracellular glutathione levels
• Supports liver detoxification
