5-Aminolevulinic acid Phosphate (5-ALA) is a naturally occurring amino acid involved in energy production, 5-ALA mainly exerts its effects at the cellular level. Our bodies consist of about 30 to 60 trillion cells, and 5-ALA supports the mitochondria that deliver energy to these cells. Mitochondria produce “ATP,” an essential energy source for maintaining health.
5-ALA is now emerging as a novel active ingredient in topical formulations, offering mitochondrial and epidermal benefits without phototoxicity.
5-ALA phosphate at low concentrations alongside iron, allowing it to work in harmony with the skin's natural processes. This innovative approach helps enhance skin vitality and promote a healthy-looking, refreshed complexion, without the need for light activation or drug-like mechanisms.
