Universal antioxidant and metabolic support
Multiple placebo-controlled studies have shown that daily doses of 600 mg to 1,800 mg of Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) can maintain healthy insulin sensitivity and support glucose utilization, allowing you to keep healthy blood sugar levels that are already in the normal range.*
Alpha Lipoic Acid is an important co-factor to two key enzymatic reactions within the Kreb’s Cycle, the energy production process in the cell mitochondria. This Cycle converts food into fuel for every action — from walking to wound healing to thinking — and for it to function at its optimal level, it requires adequate stores of ALA.
Because Alpha Lipoic Acid is soluble in both fats and water-based bodily fluids, it protects every organ in the body from the harmful effects of free radicals. It also recharges other antioxidants like Vitamin C and Glutathione, so you get more out of your nutrients.*
The amount of ALA we consume in foods and that we produce in our bodies is minuscule, and only small quantities can be absorbed. However, that form of ALA (racemic, or R-ALA) found in nature is more bioavailable and biologically active than the synthetic form (S-ALA) found in many Alpha Lipoic Acid supplements.
To maximize absorption, we use 100% R-ALA in our Lypo-Spheric® R-Alpha Lipoic Acid.
Alpha Lipoic Acid is both attracted to and repelled by water, which makes absorption in the gastrointestinal tract from oral supplements unreliable.
Using patented technology, we wrap the Alpha Lipoic Acid molecules in double-layered spheres (liposomes) that protect the nutrient through the digestive system and transport it into the bloodstream for absorption in the cells.
