I think you must mean Alpha Lipoic Acid.  It is an antioxidant that is 
soluble in both water and fat, so it can go to both kinds of places in 
the body.  I don't think it is the strongest antioxidant but it is 
supposed to help some other ones be more effective.  All the mail-order 
supplement vendors that I know of carry it. 
 
Take care.
