Pure Alpha Lipoic Acid

Alpha Lipoic Acid Description

Alpha Lipoic Acid is a vitamin like substance that can eliminate free radicals that accelerate aging and cause disease.

Pure alpha lipoic acid molecule is mainly composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and sulfur, with strong reducibility.

It is an enzyme existing in mitochondria. Lipoic acid enters cells after being absorbed in the intestinal tract in the body. It is both fat soluble and water soluble. Therefore, it can pass through the body unimpeded and reach any cell site, providing the overall efficiency of the human body.

Alpha Lipoic Acid Functions

Pure alpha lipoic acid has many functions, such as improving brain health, lowering blood sugar, inhibiting weight, protecting liver, detoxifying, anti-aging, etc.

Among them, lipoic acid plays an important role in antioxidation.

LA and DHLA have Antioxidant capacity. LA is rich in sources and can be obtained from food. DHLA can be transformed from LA. LA and DHLA are different from vitamin E (dissolved in cell membrane lipids) and Vitamin C (dissolved in extracellular fluid), which can only selectively dissolve in the aqueous phase or the lipid phase. LA can dissolve in two phases. Once LA enters the digestive tract and is absorbed, it will quickly distribute to various tissues to play an antioxidant role.

Direct scavenging of reactive oxygen free radicals

The disulfide five membered ring structure of LA determines that it can have electrophilic and reactive ability with oxygen free radicals. Studies show that LA can scavenge hydroxyl radicals, hypochlorite, peroxynitrite, singlet oxygen, nitric oxide, etc., but has no scavenging effect on superoxide radicals. Its reduced dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) can scavenge almost all free radicals except singlet oxygen. The two can transform each other in vivo and play a synergistic role in antioxidation.

Chelate metal cation

In the biological system, transition metal cations such as iron, copper, zinc, mercury and so on generate hydroxyl radicals with stronger oxidation through hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), strengthening oxidative damage. Studies have shown that LA and DHLA can play an antioxidant role in vivo and in vitro, reduce oxidative stress and reduce oxidative damage. The experimental study shows that LA has a protective effect on the iron content in the body of aged rats and reduces the oxidative stress caused by aging. DHLA alleviates oxidative damage during the onset of Alzheimer's disease by chelating copper ions and iron ions. In clinical application, LA can chelate heavy metal ions and alleviate heavy metal poisoning.

Alpha Lipoic Acid Necessity

Scientific research proves that human body can synthesize alpha lipoic acid by itself, but this synthesis ability is very weak, and gradually decreases with age. Daily diet can also provide a certain amount of ALA. For example, spinach is the most abundant source, but the content of ALA in 7kg fresh spinach is only 2mg, so daily diet is far from meeting the human needs. An appropriate amount of ALA is helpful to human health.
