Alpha Lipoic Acid capsules contain 300 mg of pure alphalipoic acid and is a non-vitamin coenzyme that carries out important metabolic and antioxidant functions in the body.
Alpha-lipoic acid is a nutritional coenzyme that is involved in energy metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats, have physiological functions in blood glucose disposal, and is able to scavenge a number of free radicals. It is a fat- and water-soluble, sulfur containing coenzyme. It functions in the body much like a B-vitamin, since it is involved in energy production. As part of several multi-enzyme complexes located in the mitochondria, alpha-lipoic acid is essential for metabolizing carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, and for the conversion of their energy into ATP. Two of these enzyme complexes, PDH (pyruvate dehydrogenase) and alpha-KGDH (alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase) are part of the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), and as such assume a central role for general energy production.
