Key Health Benefits

Benefit Area	Description	Research Paper (linked citation)
Heart Health	ALA supports cardiovascular health by improving several risk factors. Studies show that ALA can help modulate blood lipid levels, protect LDL cholesterol from oxidation, and even help reduce high blood pressure. These effects make ALA a potential protective agent against cardiovascular disease.	Click Here
Cognitive Health	ALA contributes to brain health and cognitive function. It easily crosses the blood-brain barrier and acts as a neuroprotective antioxidant. Research indicates that ALA can slow age-related cognitive decline and improve brain function and memory by reducing oxidative stress in the brain. This suggests ALA may help support memory and overall cognitive performance, especially in aging populations.	Click Here
Blood Sugar Support	ALA helps maintain healthy blood sugar levels by enhancing glucose metabolism. It improves insulin sensitivity and uptake of glucose into cells. Clinical studies (including meta-analyses) have found that ALA supplementation significantly lowers fasting blood glucose and hemoglobin A1c (a long-term blood sugar marker) in people with metabolic disorders, indicating better glycemic control.

Antioxidant Defense	ALA provides powerful antioxidant protection. It functions in both water- and fat-soluble environments, neutralizing free radicals and chelating metal ions. Uniquely, ALA also regenerates other antioxidants like vitamins C and E and glutathione, earning it the nickname “antioxidant of antioxidants”. This broad antioxidant activity helps shield cells from oxidative stress and damage.	Click Here
Energy Metabolism	ALA plays a key role in energy production at the cellular level. It serves as an essential enzymatic cofactor in mitochondrial metabolism, helping convert glucose into energy and supporting mitochondrial biogenesis. By aiding the efficient use of glucose for fuel, ALA can contribute to stable energy levels and reduce fatigue.	Click Here

Dosage Recommendation

Goal	Stack
General Antioxidant Support	300 mg ALA once daily (1 capsule) with a meal
Blood Sugar Management	300 mg ALA twice daily (morning and evening)
Neuropathy Relief	600 mg ALA daily, split into two 300 mg doses
Cognitive & Mitochondrial Support	600 mg ALA daily (300 mg morning, 300 mg evening), ideally stacked with 500–1,000 mg acetyl-L-carnitine
Cardiovascular Health	300–600 mg ALA once daily, combined with 100 mg CoQ10 or 1 g omega-3 fish oil

When Will I See Results?

Goal	Expected Timeline
General Antioxidant Support	Preventive and cumulative—cellular protection begins immediately, benefits accrue over months to years of consistent use
Blood Sugar Management	4–8 weeks for measurable improvements in fasting glucose and insulin sensitivity
Neuropathy Relief	3–6 weeks for noticeable reduction in tingling, numbness, or nerve pain
Cognitive & Brain Protection	8–12 weeks to support mitochondrial function; 6–12 months for subjective improvements in memory or mental clarity
Cardiovascular Health	8–12 weeks for improvements in blood pressure, cholesterol oxidation markers, and endothelial function

How to Maximise Results

Goal	Stack
General Antioxidant Support	Take ALA on an empty stomach (30 min before breakfast) if tolerated; pair with a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and vitamin C–rich foods
Blood Sugar Management	Take 30 min before meals; combine with a low-glycemic diet, regular exercise, and chromium or cinnamon supplements
Neuropathy Relief	Maintain strict blood glucose control; stack with B-complex vitamins (B₁ and B₁₂) and gentle exercise (e.g., walking) to improve nerve circulation
Cognitive & Brain Protection	Stack with acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) and omega-3 DHA; engage in mental exercises, adequate sleep, and a Mediterranean-style diet
Cardiovascular Health	Combine with CoQ10 or omega-3 fish oil; adopt heart-healthy habits (aerobic exercise, diet low in saturated fats and refined carbs)

What to Avoid

Substance	Reason to Avoid	Spacing Tip
Iron, Calcium & Mineral Supplements	ALA can chelate minerals, reducing both ALA and mineral absorption	Separate by 2–3 hours—take ALA with one meal and minerals with another
Antidiabetic Medications	Potential additive blood-sugar lowering effect may cause hypoglycemia	Take ALA and diabetes meds at different times; monitor blood glucose closely
Thyroid Medication	ALA may interfere with thyroid hormone levels or absorption	Space doses at least 4 hours apart; monitor thyroid function when starting ALA
Chemotherapy Agents	High-dose antioxidants could reduce efficacy of certain chemo drugs that rely on oxidative mechanisms to kill cancer cells	Avoid ALA during active chemotherapy unless approved by your oncologist
Excessive Alcohol	Alcohol increases oxidative stress and can worsen neuropathy, counteracting ALA’s benefits	Limit alcohol intake and do not take ALA at the same time; maintain a gap of several hours between alcohol and ALA dose
