Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a powerful antioxidant that supports cellular energy production, glucose metabolism, and the body’s natural antioxidant defenses. Active in both water- and fat-soluble environments, ALA can help regenerate other antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, while supporting healthy mitochondrial function. It is commonly incorporated into metabolic, antioxidant, and healthy-aging protocols to promote cellular protection, insulin sensitivity, and overall metabolic health.
