Alpha Lipoic Acid 400 Mg (60 Caps)

Promotes healthy glucose metabolism Provides 400 mg of alpha-lipoic acid per day Alpha-lipoic acid is an exceptionally versatile nutrient. Being both water and fat-soluble, this multifunctional compound is able to function in almost every part of the body. Alpha-lipoic acid promotes healthy glucose metabolism by regulating enzymes involved in glucose oxidation. Maintaining healthy glucose metabolism is fundamental for preventing the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which decrease the function of the body's proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. In addition to supporting healthy glucose metabolism, the antioxidant properties of alpha-lipoic acid also decrease oxidative stress, which is closely linked to AGE production and is a known contributing factor to many of the health problems associated with AGEs. Alpha-lipoic acid scavenges free radicals and regenerates antioxidant vitamins C and E. This formulation also contains vitamin C to support and enhance the body's natural defense mechanisms against free radicals.
