Product Description

Lipoic acid, with the molecular formula C8H14O2S2, is an organic compound that can be used as a coenzyme to participate in the acyl transfer in the metabolism of substances in the body, and can eliminate free radicals that lead to accelerated aging and disease. As a coenzyme, lipoic acid plays a role in two key oxidative decarboxylation reactions, that is, in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and the α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex, catalyzing the generation and transfer of acyl groups. α-lipoic acid contains a disulfide five-membered ring structure, has a high electron density, has significant electrophilicity and the ability to react with free radicals, so it has antioxidant properties, and has extremely high health care functions and medical value. In addition, The sulfhydryl group of lipoic acid is easy to carry out redox reaction, so it can protect the sulfhydryl enzyme from the poison of heavy metal ions.


1.Lipoic acid is also an essential factor in the body's glucose energy metabolism cycle. Sulfur-containing amino acids in the diet are the elemental source for the synthesis of lipoic acid. Although the human body can synthesize lipoic acid required for basic physiological reactions, additional lipoic acid supplementation can increase the generation of ATP in the energy cycle of cells, which has positive significance for improving diabetes.
2.Lipoic acid is a non-hydrophilic soluble antioxidant component, which has a therapeutic effect on neuropathy caused by diabetes and alcohol or chemical toxic substances.
3.Lipoic acid is also used in beauty care for external use. External use of lipoic acid can reduce the formation of fine lines on the skin and protect skin cells from ultraviolet rays.


1.Lipoic acid is used in the pharmaceutical industry as a drug for diabetes.
2.Lipoic acid is used in the cosmetic industry as the main ingredient in anti-wrinkle skin care products.
