NOW Foods Alpha Lipoic Acid 600 mg is an extra-strength dietary supplement designed to provide 600 mg of alpha lipoic acid (ALA) per vegetarian capsule. Alpha lipoic acid is a naturally occurring compound produced by the human body in small amounts and is also found in certain foods.
This formula combines 600 mg of Alpha Lipoic Acid with 30 mg of Grape Seed Extract and 5 mg of BioPerine® Black Pepper Fruit Extract. ALA can function in both water- and fat-soluble environments and supports the body’s natural antioxidant systems. It also helps support the body’s glutathione production and the antioxidant activity of vitamins C and E.
The 600 mg formula is NOW Foods’ extra-strength version, providing substantially more ALA per capsule than its 100 mg regular-strength product. The manufacturer suggests taking 1 capsule daily, preferably with a meal.
The product is vegan/vegetarian, non-GMO, halal and kosher, and is manufactured and quality tested in the USA using globally sourced ingredients. NOW Foods also states that the product is produced in a GMP-certified facility.

- Alpha Lipoic Acid — 600 mg
