Can alpha lipoic acid help prematurely aged skin?
As we get older our skin loses its elasticity and ability to regenerate. Free radicals attack our cells, and collagen breaks down. Thanks to the power of the antioxidants, our body is able to fight their harmful effects. If antioxidants help us fight the aging process, it makes sense that they will help us fight aging skin too. ALA is not known as the “universal antioxidant” without a reason.
