Our take on the Superior Labs Alpha Lipoic Acid
Superior Labs Alpha Lipoic Acid is a single-ingredient antioxidant supplement built around alpha lipoic acid, a compound the body makes in small amounts and also gets from foods like spinach and red meat. It is marketed for cellular protection, healthy nerve function and glucose metabolism. The formula is plain: one active ingredient, no blend of extras, which makes it easy to stack with other supplements but leaves out the cofactors some rival products add. Buyers rate it highly, though the feedback base is small.
