- Provides 600 mg of alpha-lipoic acid per day
Alpha lipoic acid is an extremely versatile nutrient. As it is both water and fat soluble, this multifunctional compound can be effective in virtually any part of the body. Alpha lipoic acid supports healthy glucose metabolism by regulating enzymes involved in glucose oxidation. Maintaining healthy glucose metabolism is essential to prevent the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which reduce the efficiency of proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. In addition to supporting healthy glucose metabolism, the antioxidant properties of alpha-lipoic acid also reduce oxidative stress, which is closely linked to the production of AGEs and is a known factor contributing to many of the same health problems associated with AGEs. Alpha lipoic acid eliminates free radicals and regenerates vitamins C and E, which are antioxidants. This formulation also includes vitamin C to further support and enhance the body's natural defense mechanisms against free radicals.
