ALA is well known as a powerful antioxidant.* It has been called a universal antioxidant because it is effective in water-based substances such as blood, while its reduced metabolite, dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), is effective in fatty tissues and membranes.* How does alpha lipoic acid support health?May promote cardiovascular health by protecting against free radical damage.*Enhances the antioxidant activity of vitamins C and E and coenzyme Q10.May increase levels of glutathione, the bodys most important antioxidant.*Why choose Vitacost Alpha Lipoic Acid?Contains 240 servings per bottle.Exceptional quality at an extraordinary value.About VitacostAll Vitacost products are laboratory tested to meet FDA standards for identity, purity and composition.
