Alpha Lipoic Acid 500 mg, 90 capsules
Product detailed description
What makes alpha lipoic acid unusual is that it dissolves in water and in fat alike. Among the substances that end up in food supplements, that combination is the exception rather than the rule. Alpha Lipoic Acid by NutriWorks carries 500 mg of it in one plant based capsule.
The formula adds two trace elements, both landing exactly on 100% of the nutrient reference value: copper at 1 mg as copper gluconate and selenium at 55 µg as sodium selenite. Selenium contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and copper contributes to normal functioning of the nervous system.
The rest of the list is short: maize maltodextrin, a plant based HPMC shell and an anti-caking agent.
Key benefits
- 500 mg of alpha lipoic acid – in one plant based capsule.
- Soluble in water and in fat – a property few supplement ingredients share.
- 1 mg copper and 55 µg selenium – both elements at 100% NRV.

- Nervous system – copper contributes to its normal functioning.
- 90 capsules per pack – 45 to 90 days depending on the dose you pick, with production in Finland and Sweden.
Dosage
Take 1 to 2 capsules a day with food. The 500 mg figure is pure alpha lipoic acid, not an extract.

NutriWorks: Finnish sports nutrition made for clubs and coaches
NutriWorks was founded in Helsinki in 2009 with a professional brief: sports nutrition for clubs, nutrition advisers and specialist retailers rather than the mass market. That origin shows in the products, which are functional, plainly labelled and free of the flavour gimmicks that dominate the category.
The brand runs two lines. The white line is made without artificial sweeteners; the black line keeps them to a minimum. Both draw on the Finnish approach to clean formulation and ethical sourcing.
At BJP Store you will find
- Electrolytes – for training days and hot weather.
- Vitamins and minerals – Strong Vitamin B, B12, biotin, folic acid, vitamin A, magnesium and antioxidants.
- Functional mushrooms – Lion's Mane capsules.
