IV Alpha Lipoic Acid(ALA)

What makes IV alpha lipoic acid(ALA) special?

Alpha lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant recognized for its many benefits including better health, beauty and weight loss. ALA if round in every cell of your body and is produced in your cells. However things like stress, disease, medications, toxins and aging can lead to reduced levels of alpha lipoic acid.

Alpha lipoic acid is classified as a phospholipid, meaning it is both water and fat-soluble and can work in all the tissues of your body, earning itself the reputation of “universal antioxidant”. ALA is also unique because it helps your body restore or regenerate levels of vitamin C, vitamin E and glutathion, the mother of all antioxidants.
