Description:  An antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals. It is found in every cell in the body and is key in converting glucose into energy. Sugar can be extremely damaging to our cells if it is not well controlled, as sugar can react with molecules within the cell in a permanent bond called glycation. Once these bonds between sugar and protein are formed, they become mini-factories for the generation of free radicals that can attack our cells and their mitochondria and produce inflammation. Alpha lipoic acid helps prevent these damaging glycation reactions, while also increasing the cell’s ability to utilize glucose. When taken orally as a supplement, alpha-lipoic acid can concentrate in both the cell and mitochondrial lipid membranes, where it protects both from free radical damage, thus preventing the commencement of an inflammatory cascade.

Suggested Use:  Take one capsule twice daily with meals.
