Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a powerful antioxidant that safeguards each of the cells in our body, supporting longevity by reducing oxidative stress and protecting against cellular damage. Research shows alpha lipoic acid protects against age-related health decline of the heart, brain and skin.
- Supports cellular health by reducing oxidative stress
- Promotes energy production by supporting mitochondrial health
- Normalizes blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity
- Protects the heart from free radical damage
- Enhances cognitive health by protecting neurons from oxidative damage
- Improves skin health by aiding in collagen synthesis
Research-Supported Benefits:
Supports Cellular Health. Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) functions as a powerful antioxidant, protecting each of the cells in our body from oxidative damage. (1) Studies show that oxidative damage is a key contributor to age-related health decline and decreased longevity. (2) ALA further supports cellular health by aiding in mitochondrial biogenesis (the creation of new mitochondria), which is critical for ATP (cellular energy) production. (3)
Regulates Blood Sugar. Research shows alpha lipoic acid exhibits blood-sugar regulating effects by increasing the uptake of glucose into cells and increasing insulin sensitivity. (4) A 2022 meta-analysis of 16 randomized controlled trials concluded alpha lipoic acid supplementation significantly reduces fasting blood glucose and Hemoglobin A1C. (5)
Enhances Heart Health. By reducing oxidative stress, alpha lipoic acid offers protection against age-related decline of heart health. A 2022 randomized controlled trial involving 46 participants found that 12 weeks of alpha lipoic acid supplementation offers additional cardio-protection by significantly reducing triglycerides and total cholesterol. (6)
Promotes Cognitive Health. Research shows that oxidative stress contributes to many of the symptoms of brain aging, including cognitive dysfunction and reduced memory. (7) Animal studies indicate alpha lipoic acid has neuroprotective effects by reducing markers of oxidative stress in the brain. (8)
Improves Skin Health. A key contributor to skin aging is the decline in collagen production that occurs after age 40. Alpha lipoic acid supports healthy collagen synthesis by aiding in the recycling of vitamin C, which is a critical nutrient that promotes collagen production within the body. The antioxidant effects of alpha lipoic acid offer further support for skin health by protecting against oxidative damage of skin cells from environmental factors.

I just wanted to drop a quick review for anyone who reads this regarding ProHealth's Alpha Lipoic Acid is as good or better than any other manufacturer I've used through the years.
I've been supplementing ALA ~5+ years daily—combined with Al-Car which has a nice synergy. Zero complaints from a terrific third-party testing company I buy many supplements from 😊
Thank y'all!

This is my first bottle and I have added it together with krill oil capsules
This product fills my requirements.
I'm currently taking the niacinamide hyaluronic acid and now this. My skin keeps getting better.
My skin looks for youthful as opposed to that of other middle aged men. In fact I no longer have the need for body lotion because my skin is no longer dried out. Mentally, I feel clearer with no brain fog whatsoever. I also use Fisetin and Trans Resveratrol, both of which are offered by Pro Health as well. Excellent products that are now a mainstay of my daily regimen. Thank you Pro Health!!
This is one of the supplements that is critical. I have a lot of faith in this company to provide high quality products.

Good stuff
I can't say anything about this product because I don't see any results
This formulation of ALA clearly gets in and
D throughout the system (as judged by the asparagus odor!). It suffers from what all natural pills suffer from: large capsules. I wish they were smaller so that swallowing them would be easier.
