Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is an essential fatty acid used by the body for various critical functions. ALA has potent antioxidant effects, reduces inflammation, and promotes smooth skin. It may also aid healthy nerve function, lower the risk of heart disease, and improve brain health.
ALA has been linked to a range of health benefits. One that shows a great deal of promise is ALA’s potential effects on skin aging. Ongoing research indicates that ALA may help fight age-related skin conditions like wrinkles, spotting, loss of tone, and improves skin brightness.
ALA does this by binding itself to the inner layers of the skin’s fatty components. This helps skin feel and look fuller and firmer and provides increased protection from UV rays. Furthermore, ALA helps raise the body’s natural level of antioxidants, which contribute to the skin’s overall health and radiance.
Some initial studies have shown a strong link between ALA therapy and healthier nerve function. Recently, ALA was found to slow the progression of nerve-related illnesses like carpal tunnel syndrome and may even enhance recovery.
Additional studies have shown that ALA may be a key component in treating diabetic neuropathy, a type of nerve damage caused by uncontrolled and advanced stages of diabetes.
Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Thankfully, medical providers and researchers are discovering new ways to fight it. These include ALA infusion therapy.
Researchers recently conducted studies that indicate ALA may help reduce the risk of heart disease by boosting the body’s antioxidants and lowering LDL cholesterol levels in the bloodstream.
Recent studies have shown that ALA reduces unhealthy fats, known as triglycerides. Triglycerides are a key factor in the development of heart disease.
