Product Overview
Solgar Alpha Lipoic Acid 200mg Capsules deliver a potent dose of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), a naturally occurring sulphur-containing compound with unique and powerful antioxidant properties. Unlike most antioxidants, which are either fat-soluble or water-soluble, alpha-lipoic acid is both — allowing it to function in virtually every tissue of the body, protecting against oxidative damage in a wide range of cellular environments. ALA is also notable for its ability to regenerate other antioxidants including vitamins C and E and glutathione, amplifying the body's overall antioxidant network. Within mitochondria, ALA plays a key role in energy metabolism as a cofactor for several enzyme complexes involved in the conversion of glucose to usable energy (ATP). Each capsule delivers 200mg of alpha-lipoic acid, providing a meaningful supplement dose for adults seeking to support antioxidant protection and metabolic function. Solgar Alpha Lipoic Acid is free from gluten, wheat, dairy, and artificial additives, and is produced to the brand's rigorous quality standards. The 50-capsule pack supports a consistent supplementation routine.
Product Description
• Provides 200mg of alpha-lipoic acid per capsule, a uniquely both fat- and water-soluble antioxidant for broad-spectrum cellular protection
• Helps regenerate vitamins C and E and glutathione, amplifying the body's comprehensive antioxidant defence network
• Acts as an important mitochondrial cofactor involved in energy-producing enzyme complexes and glucose metabolism
• Supports healthy blood sugar metabolism by contributing to normal mitochondrial function in metabolically active tissues
• Provides antioxidant protection across a wider range of body tissues than fat-soluble or water-soluble antioxidants alone
• Free from gluten, dairy, and artificial additives in a convenient 50-capsule pack for consistent use
## How to Use
For adults, take one capsule daily with a meal, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Some research suggests that ALA absorption may be slightly reduced when taken with meals very high in fat; a light meal or snack is generally suitable. Consistent daily supplementation is recommended. Individuals taking medications for blood sugar management or thyroid conditions should consult a healthcare professional before use.
## Ideal For
Solgar Alpha Lipoic Acid 200mg is ideal for adults seeking comprehensive antioxidant protection that extends to both fat-soluble and water-soluble tissues. It is particularly relevant for those interested in metabolic health and energy support, individuals looking to complement their antioxidant supplement regimen with a synergistic compound, and health-conscious adults with an interest in mitochondrial function and healthy cellular ageing.
