Alpha lipoic acid is a fatty acid found naturally inside every cell in the body.
It's needed by the body to produce the energy for our body’s normal functions.
Alpha lipoic acid converts glucose(blood sugar) into energy.
Alpha lipoic acid is also an antioxidant, a substance that neutralizes potentially harmful chemicals called free radicals.
What makes alpha lipoic acid unique is that it functions in water and fat.
It appears to be able to recycle antioxidants such as vitamin C and glutathione after they have been used up.
Alpha lipoic acid increases the formation of glutathione.
