Alpha Lipoic Acid is a naturally occurring anti-oxidant that can be found naturally in meats and vegatables such as spinach. Its primary function is liver support and is integral in producing glutathione. Glutathione is an important liver enzyme that dissolves toxic substances that the liver filters out. In its antioxidant role, Alpha-Lipoic acid binds to free radicals and prevents them from destroying or damaging cells. Alpha-Lipoic acid helps vitamins C and E work more efficiently and in supplement form is included because it helps encourage liver detoxification. People with diabetes or hyperglycaemia benefit from Alpha-Lipoic acid as well as those with high cholesterol or hardening of the arteries.
