Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is a naturally occurring antioxidant, essential for the functioning of 5 enzymes involved in glucose and amino acid metabolism.
ALA is both a coenzyme and a potent antioxidant. Mitochondria, our cells' energy generators, use ALA for both protection and to generate cellular energy. Being active in both the water and the fatty compartments of cells, ALA fights free radicals throughout the body.*

Alpha Lipoic acid (ALA) is a fatty acid that functions like a vitamin. ALA plays an important role in the metabolism of glucose that produces energy in cells. Lipoic acid is required for synthesis of acetyl CoA, a key metabolite in the cellular process that turns glucose (blood sugar) into energy. ALA Also has antioxidant properties and thus is important for controlling free radicals. Because it is soluble in both water and fat, ALA is sometimes referred to as the "universal antioxidant"
