{"product_id":"alpha-lipoic-acid-capsules","title":"Alpha Lipoic One - 60 x R-Alpha Lipoic Acid 300mg Capsules","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlpha lipoic acid is a rare class of antioxidant — one of the few compounds that's both fat-soluble and water-soluble. That means it can support cellular function across nearly every tissue in your body, not just one compartment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's also one of the most studied compounds for healthy glucose metabolism, mitochondrial function, and the regeneration of other antioxidants your body uses every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy R-ALA specifically\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlpha lipoic acid exists in two forms — the R-isomer (the natural form your body makes) and the S-isomer (a synthetic by-product). Most cheap supplements use a 50\/50 racemic mixture. We use R-ALA — the form with meaningful biological activity. The dose required is also lower because absorption is better.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat ALA does in the body\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlpha lipoic acid acts as a cofactor in the mitochondrial enzymes that turn glucose into energy. It supports healthy blood sugar regulation, mitochondrial function, and the cellular antioxidant network — including the regeneration of glutathione, vitamin C, and vitamin E once they've been used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost studies on healthy glucose support and metabolic function have used R-ALA in the 200–600mg daily range. Our 300mg per capsule matches the mid-range of that literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in each capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e300mg of R-alpha lipoic acid per capsule. One capsule daily. Hypromellose capsule, no proprietary blends, no synthetic additives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdults 40+ building broad antioxidant support into their routine. Anyone working on metabolic flexibility alongside their longevity work. People who already supplement glutathione, vitamin C, or vitamin E and want the cofactor that helps those antioxidants regenerate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to take it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne capsule daily, taken on an empty stomach (about 30 minutes before a meal). ALA absorbs best without food, and morning is ideal. Daily consistency over weeks is where the compounding shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat to expect\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eALA supports cellular function gradually. Most people notice steadier energy and improved post-meal feel within two to four weeks. The broader antioxidant and metabolic benefits build over months of consistent use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThese statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
