A naturally occurring antioxidant that supports cellular energy production and helps guard against oxidative stress.
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a compound found naturally in every cell of the body, involved in turning glucose into usable energy.
It rounds out GL-Defend's formula with an antioxidant and cellular-protection layer.
ALA has been studied for its antioxidant properties and its relationship to reducing oxidative stress linked to elevated glucose.
This describes general research on Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) itself, not the finished GL-Defend product, which hasn't been the subject of its own clinical trial. See the full ingredients list or the formula overview for more.
