Product Description

Caret Down

Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a versatile antioxidant for daily wellness. It works in both water and fat, so it can support many tissues. ALA helps the body recycle antioxidants like vitamins C and E and supports liver detox processes.

ALA also acts inside the mitochondria, where cells make energy. It serves as a cofactor for enzymes that help turn food into ATP. Many people use ALA for steady energy, nerve comfort, and recovery after busy days.

Each capsule provides 300 mg of alpha-lipoic acid. The format is simple and clean. No gluten, dairy, or soy. Capsules are easy to take with a meal and fit well in minimal routines.

Use ALA daily alongside sleep, hydration, and balanced meals. Keep the bottle where you see it so you remember your dose. Consistency matters more than timing.

How it helps those with Long COVID

Caret Down

Individuals experiencing long COVID often report persistent symptoms such as fatigue, cognitive impairments, and nerve-related discomfort. Alpha-lipoic acid's antioxidant properties may help mitigate oxidative stress and inflammation associated with these symptoms. By supporting mitochondrial function and energy production, it may alleviate fatigue and improve cognitive function. Additionally, its neuroprotective effects could potentially reduce nerve discomfort experienced by long COVID sufferers.

Scientific Explanation

Caret Down

Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) functions as a coenzyme in mitochondrial energy metabolism, facilitating the decarboxylation of alpha-keto acids. Its antioxidant properties stem from its ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species and regenerate endogenous antioxidants such as Vitamins C and E. ALA also chelates metal ions, reducing metal-induced oxidative damage.
