Overview
Alpha Lipoic Acid(ALA) is an enzyme found in the mitochondria, which are the energy powerhouses of the human cell. Scientists in the late 1980's discovered that ALA possessed powerful antioxidant properties which support the body's normal cleansing of free radicals. ALA recycles other antioxidants, specifically vitamin C and vitamin E, enhancing their potency. ALA has the unique ability to be active in both water and fat compartments in the body. Thus, ALA is sometimes referred to as a "universal antioxidant." ALA also assists B vitamins in converting carbohydrates, proteins, and fats into energy.
