Pure Encapsulations Alpha Lipoic Acid 200 Mg 120 Capsules

Alpha Lipoic Acid is a potent antioxidant that helps protect cells from oxidative damage. It is involved in energy metabolism and can regenerate other antioxidants like Vitamin C and E. Its ability to support glucose metabolism makes it beneficial for overall health.

Hypoallergenic plant fiber, typically cellulose, is used as a filler to provide structure to the capsule. It is derived from plant sources and is generally considered safe and non-reactive. It does not contribute any nutritional value but aids in the delivery of the active ingredient.

Vegetable capsules are made from cellulose and water, providing a plant-based alternative to gelatin capsules. They are suitable for vegetarians and vegans and are generally well-tolerated. The capsule itself does not offer nutritional benefits but is essential for encapsulating the active ingredient.

Ascorbyl palmitate is a fat-soluble form of Vitamin C used as an antioxidant to preserve the product's stability. It combines ascorbic acid with palmitic acid, enhancing its stability in formulations. While it provides antioxidant benefits, its contribution in supplements is minimal compared to direct Vitamin C intake.
