The Medicinal Function Of Alpha-Lipoic Acid

Alpha-Lipoic Acid（α-LA） has been widely used in the field of medicine and food. Because of its strong antioxidant capacity, it can be used for the prevention and treatment of diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, aging, and brain tissue degeneration, as well as for the prevention and adjuvant treatment of diseases. At the same time, Alpha-Lipoic Acid also shows potential value in anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and liver diseases.

Function

1. Antioxidant properties

A. Scavenge free radicals and reactive oxygen species

Alpha-Lipoic Acid can scavenge harmful reactive species such as common free radicals and reactive oxygen species produced in living organisms.

B. Chelated metal ions

Iron in living organisms. Transition metal ions such as copper, mercury, and cadmium can catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to generate highly toxic hydroxyl radicals, resulting in tissue damage. LA can chelate these metal ions, thereby inhibiting the formation of free radicals.

2. Therapeutic effect on diabetes and chronic complications of diabetes

A. Enhances glucose metabolism

Studies have shown that LA can enhance the metabolism of glucose, which is an important measure for the prevention and treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

B. Attenuate Oxidative Stress

Diabetes easily leads to oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is an important factor that causes diabetes complications. LA can scavenge reactive oxygen species to reduce oxidative stress.
