Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) Powder
How we scored this product Show the full breakdown
Bevisning gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Säkerhet caps applied after weighting.
This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Redaktionellt notes
A cheap, high-dose (600mg) racemic ALA powder; fine for general antioxidant/mitochondrial support use but not differentiated with the more bioactive R-ALA isomer some premium brands emphasize.
