Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is naturally produced in the human body in very small amounts, but is also available in some foods. ALA is unique in that it supports the body's antioxidant systems and can function in both water and fat environments. ALA promotes the production of glutathione and can also recycle vitamins C and E, thereby enhancing their antioxidant activities. ALA helps to promote the maintenance of healthy neural tissues in conjunction with its support of proper glucose metabolism and cardiovascular function.
This extra strength product has more Alpha Lipoic Acid (600 mg per capsule) than NOW's regular strength product (100 mg per capsule).
