Lamberts Ácido Alfa lipoico 300 mg 90 Compressed

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), also known as thioctic acid or simply lipoic acid, is a substance similar to vitamins that has generated much interest in recent years, especially as regards both its ability to act as a powerful antioxidant , as for its role in the production of energy.

Structurally it is a fatty acid containing two sulfur atoms (carbon 6 and carbon 8) linked by a disulfide bridge and, therefore, is considered an oxidant. It can be synthesized by the organism from octanoic acid. Among its sources are spinach, broccoli, liver, heart, kidney, and brewer's yeast.

The body's ability to synthesize this substance is very limited from the diet and therefore it is difficult to obtain effective amounts of Alpha Lipoic Acid. Its supplementation has become common and is currently widely recommended by professionals, especially for those people weakened by oxidative stress.

The nutritional and clinical use of lipoic acid was recognized and potentiated commercially in the mid-1950s. The RLA is a classic example of an orthomolecular nutrient, as Linus Pauling said.

Each tablet provides a total of 250 mg of Alpha Lipoic Acid, making it one of the most powerful products on the market and its tablets are made under the strict GMP pharmaceutical manufacturing standards.
