Alpha lipoic acid or ALA is one of the body’s strongest antioxidants and is one of the only antioxidants that comes in both fat and water-soluble forms. We naturally produce this nutrient within the body and it is known to play a vital role in all cellular and tissue processes. General health or age-related issues may have a negative effect on the body’s ability to produce this nutrient, so taking an ALA supplement is a convenient way to replenish natural levels over time. NatureBell’s ALA supplement uses a special Myelinctin formula that combines both water and fat-soluble forms inside the same product, while also being enhanced with a thiamine and benfotiamine vitamin B1 complex.
