Alpha Lipoic Acid
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) has been cited as a potentially effective natural supplement for reducing inflammation. It’s a powerful antioxidant and studies have shown that it may have a range of health promoting capabilities, from maintaining heart health to improving liver detoxification. ALA is a naturally occurring thiol antioxidant, otherwise known as a sulphur containing chemical produced in plants and animals.
The good news is that there is a vast range of foods that contain ALA, as well as supplement drinks known as nutraceuticals. While you’ve almost definitely already heard of broccoli, kidneys, sprouts, eggs, and cauliflower, you might now be wondering:
What does nutraceutical mean, and can nutraceuticals be as effective as pharmaceuticals?
Nutraceutical is a combination of the words “nutrition” and “pharmaceuticals.” Put simply, nutraceuticals include ingredients that may have additional health benefits that originated from a natural food source.
So, if you’re considering nutraceuticals, iüLabs might be the perfect choice. Committed to helping people improve their quality of life through the combination of science, technology, and nutraceuticals, iüLabs offers an innovative solution for all.
