Alpha lipoic acid (LA) is a naturally occurring compound required for converting glucose into ATP (chemical energy). In addition LA supports the body’s natural defence against oxidative stress.

 A potent antioxidant in its own right, it also “recycles” other antioxidants such as vitamins E and C, Co-Q10 and glutathione, so they can continue to protect against free radical damage. LA has a unique ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, therefore helping normalise oxidative stress in the brain. LA has been approved in Germany for use by GPs in support of patients with diabetic neuropathy.

May Support:

The body’s natural ability to resist oxidative stress and maintain healthy tissue especially in conditions associated with poor blood glucose management, nerve, vascular and eye damage, neurological problems and poor immune function.

Also highly recommended for people regularly exposed to oxidative stressors, chemicals or toxins and for sports people.
