Alpha lipoic acid is an antioxidant that can regenerate other antioxidants that have been used up. Its particularity is that it is soluble in water and fat. Therefore it can protect all areas of the body from free radicals. Moreover, it is a cofactor for some enzymes of energy metabolism and can bind heavy metals in order to excrete them.

It is unclear whether endogenous synthesis can cover the normal requirement for this vitamin-like substance, but in the case of oxidative stress, various illnesses like diabetes or an increased heavy metal load, the endogenous synthesis is definitively not sufficient. This negatively affects the energy supply and the regulation of the blood sugar level.

AlphaLipon mse can be used both prophylactically during oxidative stress and therapeutically when damage to the mitochondria has occurred and for detoxification.
