Alpha Lipoic Acid

Food sources and dietary supplements that help boost glutathione levels naturally.

Alpha Lipoic Acid

Made naturally in body cells as a by-product of energy release, ALA increases the levels of intra-cellular glutathione, and is a natural antioxidant with free radical scavenging abilities.

It has the ability to regenerate oxidized antioxidants like Vitamin C and E and helps to make them more potent.

ALA is also known for its ability to enhance glucose uptake and may help prevent the cellular damage accompanying the complications of diabetes. It also has a protective effect in the brain.
