Alpha-lipoic acid is a vitamin-like substance that eliminates free radicals that accelerate aging and cause disease.DL-α-Lipoic acid is a cyclic disulfide antioxidant that interconverts with its reduced dithiol form. It is an essential cofactor for decarboxylation reactions of the citric acid cycle, and acts as a general antioxidant. DL-α-lipoic acid can act as a direct radical scavenger, as a cofactor to regenerate reduced glutathione, and as a metal chelator.

Application and Effect

Alpha-lipoic acid has been used in in vitro lipoylation studies and in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC)-pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDHK) functional assay. It has also been used to investigate its antioxidative effect on developing cerebellum of rats exposed to arsenic during postnatal period.The lipoic acid molecule is composed mainly of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and sulfur, and has strong reducing properties.It is an enzyme found in mitochondria and is absorbed into cells through the intestinal tract. It is both fat-soluble and water-soluble, so it can be used throughout the body to reach any cellular area, providing the body with comprehensive effects.Alpha-lipoic acid is the most efficient and safe antioxidant known, known as the "universal antioxidant", its antioxidant capacity is 400 times that of vitamin C and E, and far superior to the popular grape seeds, green tea and other ingredients.
