Welcome to another episode of our summer season! Host Caitlin Johnson chats all about Alpha Lipoic Acid and how it may help you during your trying to conceive journey! Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) are supplements that are typically used to manage chronic diseases characterized by oxidative stress. For example those who have been diagnosed with diabetes, PCOS and other metabolic syndromes.
