Alpha Lipoic Acid 400 Mg. by Pure Encapsulations 60 Vegetable Capsules Powerful Antioxidant; Supports Glucose Metabolism And Nerve Health* Our Price: $43.40
Alpha Lipoic Acid is an exceptionally versatile nutrient. Since it is both water and fat soluble, it is able to function in almost any part of the body. It is manufactured in the body, but often not in the amounts necessary to perform its many functions. It provides potent antioxidant protection from free radicals, enhances the activity of vitamins C and E, and supports various metabolic processes. It has been associated with supporting nerve health, cardiovascular function, energy production, and glucose metabolism.*
A key component of the metabolic process, Alpha Lipoic Acid produces energy in muscles and directs calories into energy production. In one study, alpha lipoic acid decreased serum lactate and pyruvate and promoted healthy glucose metabolism in lean and overweight individuals. It also plays a role in moderating the formation of advanced glycation end products. In addition to supporting healthy glucose metabolism, the antioxidant properties of alpha lipoic acid also promote healthy vascular and blood vessel function.*
Alpha Lipoic Acid also supported nerve health in subjects who participated in a four-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter trial. The ability of alpha lipoic acid to modulate nitric oxide metabolite activity and to promote healthy microcirculation accounted for its ability to promote nerve cell health in two separate studies. At this time, as many as fifteen clinical trials have examined the role of alpha lipoic acid in maintaining healthy nerve function. The results of these trials have typically demonstrated that alpha lipoic acid administration provides neuroprotection. In part, this may be due to alpha lipoic acid’s ability to modulate nitric oxide metabolite activity and to promote healthy microcirculation.*
