About This Product

Source Naturals Alpha Lipoic Acid 300 mg is a non-nutrient supplement primarily featuring Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) at 600 mg per serving.

The formula contains only three ingredients, with Calcium at 127 mg being identified as underdosed according to our analysis. Despite 100% label transparency, the product's ingredient adequacy and formula completeness scores are low, suggesting it may not provide comprehensive support.
