Alpha Lipoic Acid IV Therapy
Alpha Lipoic Acid IV Therapy
Alpha lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant recognized for its many benefits including better health, beauty, and weight loss. ALA is found in every cell of your body and is produced in your cells. However, things like stress, disease, medications, toxins, and aging can lead to reduced levels of alpha lipoic acid.
What makes lipoic acid special?
Other antioxidants are soluble only in water (like vitamin C) or only in fat (like vitamin E), limiting how your body can store and use them.
Alpha lipoic acid is classified as a phospholipid, meaning it is both water and fat-soluble and can work in all the tissues of your body, earning itself the reputation of “universal antioxidant”.
ALA is also unique because it helps your body restore or regenerate levels of vitamin C, vitamin E and glutathione, the mother of all antioxidants.
Why not just take ALA supplements?
Oral ALA supplements cannot deliver the same dosage of lipoic acid as effectively as IV therapy because the digestive system slows and limits absorption. Intravenous lipoic acid delivers essential fluids, vitamins, and other beneficial ingredients directly to your bloodstream to ensure full absorption.
Lipoic acid is available as an add-on boost so you can benefit from the universal antioxidant with any of our IV treatments. Book your appointment online today or contact a hydration specialist for more information.
