History

First discovered in 1937 when researchers noticed the need for a certain bacteria in order to reproduce potato juice. This bacteria was later identified as alpha lipoic acid and isolated for further research in the 1950's. Clinically, alpha lipoic acid was first used as an antidote for acute death cap mushroom poisoning. Soon after this, it was used to treat neuropathic complaints. As a natural occurring substance, alpha lipoic acid is produced in small amounts by humans, animals and plants.

Necessary for energy production, alpha lipoic acid originates in the mitochondria where it helps the enzymes turn nutrients into energy. Although alpha lipoic acid can be obtained through the meats and vegetables we eat, it is only through the intake of a supplement that it becomes possible to reach levels where it can benefit the body. Superior Labs offers a comprehensive Alpha Lipoic Acid supplement that will provide your body with the amounts your body needs to heal itself and protect against future damage.

How Alpha Lipoic Acid is Extracted, Harvested, Processed and Manufactured

Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is commonly found in vegetables like broccoli and spinach, as well as (in smaller amounts) potatoes, sweet potatoes, peas, and tomatoes. Organ meats, such as liver and heart also contain larger amounts of alpha lipoic acid. While it is certainly possible to obtain some ALA from the foods we eat, to reach therapeutic levels it is necessary to add a supplement to your routine. Superior Labs offers you the highest quality ingredients combined with the most innovative technology to bring you the best supplements on the market.
