Watch now[Story] Alpha-lipoic acid modestly improved heart function and walking ability in heart failure patients.
Heart failure that develops after a heart attack can worsen over time as damaged heart cells become less efficient at generating energy. This loss of energy production occurs partly because mitochondria, the structures inside cells that produce energy, are functionally impaired. Researchers investigated whether alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) could improve outcomes when added to standard heart failure treatment. The multicenter clinical trial enrolled 300 adults with chronic heart failure who had experienced a heart attack at least 30 days earlier and had a left ventricular ejection fraction of 50% o... cardiovascular heart disease mitochondria supplements

Watch now[Story] Alpha-lipoic acid supplements promote weight loss in obese people who are otherwise healthy.
Obesity is a major contributor to many of the leading causes of death, including cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancer. More than 650 million adults are obese worldwide (https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/obesity-and-overweight). Findings from a new study suggest that alpha-lipoic acid promotes weight loss in obese adults. Alpha-lipoic acid is a naturally occurring substance present in the human body and in some foods. It is a powerful antioxidant that amplifies the beneficial effects of other antioxidants in the body such as glutathione and coenzyme Q10.
