Alpha Lipoic Acid 100 mg - 90 capsules

Jarrow Formulas® Alpha Lipoic Acid is a unique lipid- and water-soluble antioxidant that is a cofactor in the body's energy production and plays an essential role in regulating glucose metabolism. ALA It also helps in the synthesis of glutathione, another powerful antioxidant and a critical component of the endogenous antioxidant system.

Alpha lipoic acid plays an important role in the production of energy from carbohydrates, participating in the multi-enzyme process at many levels. ALA stimulates insulin activity and improves glucose burning. This is important for athletes and overweight people, as muscle activity requires efficient sugar metabolism.

Biotin is an essential cofactor that is important for energy production and lipid metabolism. Biotin is added for optimal activity of ALABecause Biotin and ALA are transported by the same mechanism, increased uptake of ALA may interfere with the absorption of Biotin and the functions of Coenzymes.

Like Alpha Lipoic Acid and Acetyl L-Carnitine, Biotin supports mitochondrial efficiency and even mitochondrial biogenesis.

To protect against biotin deficiency, Jarrow Formulas Alpha Lipoic Acid contains over 100% of the recommended daily dose for Biotin.
