Function of Alpha Lipoic Acid
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a water-soluble and fat-soluble metabolic antioxidant, a substance similar to vitamins. Alpha-lipoic acid is called "super antioxidant", which is the "most functional and active" antioxidant among all antioxidants.
1. Help patients reduce their dependence on insulin and hypoglycemic drugs
Alpha-lipoic acid powder is the only universal activator that is both fat-soluble and water-soluble, and the effect of lipoic acid is longer than other antioxidants. Lipoic acid can balance blood sugar, promote glucose absorption, improve blood sugar control in diabetic patients, and reduce the use of insulin or hypoglycemic drugs.
2. Protect the nerve tissue of diabetic patients and help treat peripheral neuropathy
Foreign studies have proved that alpha lipoic acid can significantly improve the clinical symptoms caused by diabetic peripheral neuropathy. It has been recommended for adjuvant treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy in Germany for more than 30 years. Alpha lipoic acid can protect the nerve tissue of diabetic patients and help treat inflammation caused by protein deposits in nerve cells.
3. Alpha lipoic acid is a super antioxidant
The antioxidant capacity of alpha lipoic acid is 5-10 times that of grape seeds, and the antioxidant capacity of grape seeds is 20 times that of vitamin C. 60 times of vitamin E, it has both fat-soluble and water-soluble properties and can be absorbed by various tissues and organs.
