Alpha Lipoic Acid 300mg (Immediate Release) is a dietary supplement formulated to provide powerful antioxidant support and promote energy metabolism in the body.*

This supplement is ideal for adults looking to support optimal energy levels, promote healthy blood sugar balance, and protect cells against daily damage from free radicals.*

As a dietary supplement for adults, take one (1) or two (2) softgels daily, preferably on an empty stomach, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

Alpha Lipoic Acid IR provides whole-body antioxidant support, helps maintain optimal cell metabolism, and supports detoxification processes, making it an excellent choice for overall health and well-being.*

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) functions as a universal antioxidant, capable of operating in both water- and fat-soluble environments within the body.(1) Following absorption, ALA can convert to dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), enhancing its antioxidant capacity. Both ALA and DHLA play a crucial role in regenerating other antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E, and glutathione, thereby increasing their effectiveness in neutralizing free radicals. Furthermore, ALA contributes to cellular energy production by acting as a cofactor for key mitochondrial enzymes that facilitate energy generation from glucose. Research indicates that ALA may promote glucose uptake in muscle cells and has the ability to bind certain metals, which may aid in reducing their toxic effects within the body (2). In addition, some emerging research indicates ALA may support weight management efforts✝,[SYMBOL] blood sugar balance, and overall metabolic health. These actions are attributed, in large part, to its powerful antioxidant capacity and ability to helps balance the body’s natural anti-inflammatory response (3).* Other emerging research shows ALA has the ability to support the body’s normal production of detoxification enzymes and bind to heavy metals like lead, mercury, and cadmium, which helps facilitate their removal from the body (4,5).*
