What is Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)?

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a natural antioxidant belonging to the class of disulfide compounds, first extracted from cow liver. It is both water-soluble and fat-soluble, allowing it to freely travel within various tissues in the body, including blood, cell membranes, and mitochondria. It is an important coenzyme involved in energy metabolism.

ALA is also known as the "universal antioxidant" because it can neutralize free radicals in the body and regenerate other antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Coenzyme Q10, and Glutathione (GSH), enhancing the body's overall antioxidant capacity.
