Alpha Lipoic Acid Powder

What is Alpha Lipoic Acid?

Alpha Lipoic Acid is an enzyme present in mitochondria, similar to vitamins, which can act as a coenzyme involved in acyl transfers in the metabolism of substances in the body, and can eliminate free radicals that lead to accelerated aging and pathogenicity. Lipoic acid is absorbed through the intestinal tract and enters the cells. It is both fat-soluble and water-soluble, so it can pass through the whole body without any obstruction and reach any cellular part, providing the human body with a full range of performance, it is universal antioxidant with both fat-soluble and water-soluble properties.

As a coenzyme, lipoic acid has an important role in the metabolism of glucose in cells that are responsible for the production of energy. It serves as a taskmaster for cellular activation, which is commonly known as an antioxidant substance. The world's leading authority on lipoic acid and antioxidants, Dr. Lester Packer of the University of California, Berkeley, found that lipoic acid is considered a free radical, which has 400 times the antioxidant effect of vitamins C and E, such as other antioxidants in the body, such as CoQ10, and vitamins C and E made into a combination of the other antioxidants can be even more revitalizing the role of other antioxidants. Lipoic acid is both water and fat-soluble and is smaller than Vitamin E, so it is easily absorbed into the skin.

Benefits:

Antioxidant

Lipoic acid is one of the most potent of the known natural antioxidants. Lipoic acid's antioxidant capacity is much higher than that of VC, VE, and lycopene, and also higher than that of grape seed extracts, anthocyanins, etc. Lipoic acid scavenges free radicals and regenerates endogenous antioxidants such as VC, VE, coenzyme Q10, glutathione and lipoic acid itself. In addition, it chelates metal ions, such as iron, copper, mercury, and cadmium, thereby inhibiting free radical reactions catalyzed by metal ions and reducing tissue damage.

Lowering Blood Sugar

Alpha lipoic acid powder can restore the ability of insulin response, so that insulin stimulates the cells to stimulate glucose oxidation and synthesis of hepatic glycogen, so that the sugar metabolism is normalized, thus lowering blood glucose values, and is used as a vitamin to improve metabolism, suitable for patients with liver disease and diabetics.

Anti-Aging, Delayed Aging

Lipoic acid has excellent antioxidant properties and removes the active oxygen components that cause skin aging, and because it is a smaller molecule than Vitamin E, and is both water and fat-soluble, it is easily absorbed into the skin. It is highly effective in treating dark circles, wrinkles and blemishes, and by strengthening the metabolism, it improves blood circulation in the body, improving dullness, minimizing pores, and refining the skin.

Weight Loss

Alpha-lipoic acid powder is part of the insulin signaling system that differentiates 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and inhibits the accumulation of neutrophils. It has been studied that alpha-lipoic acid leads to weight loss in rats by reducing food intake and increasing caloric expenditure.

Anti-radiation

Lipoic acid increased the survival rate of irradiated rats from 35% to 90% from untreated. In accidental irradiation of infants, treatment with alpha-lipoic acid increased the survival rate and decreased the chemiluminescence; if co-treated with vitamin E, the chemiluminescence could be further decreased and restored to normal levels, and renal and hepatic functions could be restored to normal due to alpha-lipoic acid treatment.

Applications:

In Health Products Field

Alpha Lipoic Acid powder can scavenge free radicals in the body and prevent the effects of lipid peroxidation, thus slowing down aging, beautifying the face as well as revitalizing cells, and is often used in oral nutritional products.

In Pharmaceutical Field

Lipoic acid is used in the treatment of various diseases such as diabetic peripheral neuropathy and neurological complications.
