Puritan's Pride Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) 600 mg 60 capsules

The dietary supplement Puritan's Pride Alpha Lipoic Acid contains up to 600 mg of a substance whose structure is similar to that of vitamins. Alpha-lipoic acid is naturally produced by the human body, but in very small amounts. It is therefore logical to provide it externally.

Alpha-lipoic acid is part of the omega-3 family, a group of essential fatty acids (EFAs). This means they are very important for maintaining normal human function, but must be supplied externally because they cannot be synthesized in the body due to their molecules containing multiple unsaturated bonds.

Alpha-lipoic acid has very strong antioxidant properties. It has a broad spectrum of action against inflammation and free radicals. Thanks to these properties, it is often used in anti-aging therapies. Due to its structure, ALA acid can act both in tissue and cellular spaces, making it a very versatile broad-spectrum antioxidant.

In summary, the Puritan's Pride alpha-lipoic acid supplement is one of the most powerful and versatile antioxidants available. It promotes the reduction of inflammation and slows the aging process of the body.
