α-Lipoic Acid is a unique anti-free radical substance often referred to as a broad antioxidant. It is a substance that is produced in the body like a vitamin. Unlike other antioxidants produced in the body with special effects, α-lipoic acid is neither strictly fat-soluble nor water-soluble, which allows it to promote the activity of other antioxidants in the body and is also a widely present substitute when antioxidants are insufficient.

In the field of medicine, α-lipoic acid is widely used in the prevention and adjuvant treatment of diabetes and its related complications. It can enhance glucose metabolism, reduce oxidative stress, relieve symptoms of diabetic neuropathy, prevent diabetic cataracts, and prevent diabetic cardiovascular damage.
