Function
1.Alpha lipoic acid is a fatty acid found naturally inside every cell in the body.
2.Alpha lipoic acid is needed by the body to produce the energy for our body's normal functions.
3.Alpha lipoic acid converts glucose(blood sugar) into energy.,
4.Alpha lipoic acid is also an antioxidant,
5. Alpha lipoic acid appears to be able to recycle antioxidants such as vitamin C and glutathione after they have been used up.
Main Uses:
It can be used as chemical reagent and intermediate in industry. At the same time, it is also widely used in cosmetics, spices and food additives. Due to its antioxidant and preservative properties, R-alpha-lipoic acid is often added to skin care products, foods and beverages to extend their shelf life.
R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, regulating skin oil, reducing acne, repairing damaged skin and so on.
1. Antibacterial: R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid has a strong antibacterial ability, which can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria and reduce the risk of inflammation and infection.
2. Anti-inflammatory: R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid can inhibit inflammation, reduce skin swelling, pain and itching and other uncomfortable symptoms, promote skin repair and rehabilitation.
3. Antioxidant: R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid has an antioxidant effect, which can neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative damage, and protect the skin from the external environment and ultraviolet damage.
4. Regulate skin oil: R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid can regulate sebum secretion, balance the distribution of skin oil, reduce shine and pore obstruction, and improve oily skin problems.
5. Reduce acne production: R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid can inhibit the inflammatory response caused by acne, reduce the formation of acne, and improve the condition of acne skin.
6. Repair damaged skin: R-(+)-alpha-Lipoic acid has the effect of promoting skin cell regeneration and repair, which can accelerate the healing of damaged skin and reduce scar formation.
