Description: Alpha lipoic acid (ALA), also known as thioctic acid, is a water-soluble and fat-soluble metabolic antioxidant and vitamin-like substance. Alpha lipoic acid is widely recognized for its powerful antioxidant properties, and its health benefits include reducing oxidative stress, protecting cells from free radical damage, and supporting overall cellular health.

Alpha lipoic acid is a cofactor or coenzyme for at least five enzyme systems. This means that without ALA, the enzyme cannot perform its necessary functions. Two of these enzyme systems are involved in energy production, while the others are involved in detoxification and the transport of fatty acids. Not surprisingly, low levels of ALA in cells are associated with cellular damage and dysfunction due to the lack of ATP and the antioxidant protection provided by ALA.

Because ALA is a tiny molecule, it is efficiently absorbed and easily crosses cell membranes. Unlike vitamin E, which is primarily fat-soluble, and vitamin C, which is water-soluble, alpha lipoic acid can neutralize water-soluble or fat-soluble free radicals inside and outside the cell. In addition, alpha lipoic acid can extend the biochemical life of vitamins C and E, as well as other antioxidants.When alpha-lipoic acid is combined with vitamin C, it provides synergistic antioxidant support, further enhancing its ability to protect the skin and fight signs of aging.

Beyond that, one of the best lipoic acid benefits is its ability to help control blood sugar levels. It helps reduce dependence on insulin and glucose-lowering medications while protecting nerve tissue in diabetics, making it beneficial for treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

Although alpha-lipoic acid is produced by the body and is found in trace amounts in foods such as spinach, broccoli, peas, brewer's yeast, Brussels sprouts, potatoes, and offal (kidney, heart, liver), sometimes the amount synthesized does not meet the body's needs, so supplementation is needed. Only the concentrated amounts of alpha-lipoic acid found in supplements provide the best antioxidant effects.
