With its potent antioxidant properties, research has shown ALA strongly supports the neurovascular system, as well as overall circulatory and blood vessel health. As a short chain fatty acid, ALA can both be absorbed by fatty tissues and maintain its solubility in water, allowing it to be easily excreted from the body when not needed. In addition, orally supplemented ALA readily crosses the blood brain barrier after absorption in the small intestine. It then undergoes distribution via systemic circulation. Once inside the tissues, ALA can exert its antioxidant benefits both inside and outside the cells, including the cellular powerhouse, the mitochondria, where it functions as a coenzyme in several different biochemical pathways. ALA also serves as a sulfur donor, which allows it to support detoxification pathways that require this nutrient.
Supportive of a wide variety of health-related issues, ALA recharges vitamin E, vitamin C, glutathione and CoQ10, and directly quenches reactive oxygen species (ROS). Since it has water-soluble, fat-soluble and sulfhydryl properties, it can be utilized by many different bodily tissues in a variety of ways. Its unique chemical properties allow ALA to support blood sugar balance already within normal levels.
Lipoic Acid+ supplement contains 300 mg of ALA and 300 mcg of biotin to protect against loss of biotin as a result of the competition of the two.

I've always found Towncrest Pharmacist & staff to be friendly & helpful, over 20 years. We were so glad to be able to get Covid Vaccine there.Lavon Yeggy
Towncrest is a great pharmacy in the Iowa City area. They have a very friendly staff who go to extra mile to help. They did their best to help my family in a difficult moment, and I have no good words to say thanks for the excellent care!Adriana Marchini
Knowledgeable, friendly and caring staff. I especially appreciate that they can offer assistance with any health care need.Shirley Green
Small but efficient. I like that I didn't have to wait literally 25 minutes on hold to speak to someone like I had to for Walgreens. Seems like it caters primarily to the elderly but if you need wrist, hand, knee, or other various braces, this would be a good place to go especially.Heather Van Raden
