Alpha Lipoic Acid


If you suffer from diabetic neuropathy, then you know that your nerves NEED consideration in your health practices. Alpha Lipoic Acid does just that: takes your nerves into consideration. Neuropathy isn't disorder it aids, though! It also helps diabetics to improve insulin function and glucose uptake. It helps to prevent cataract formation. It even helps to reduce symptoms of burning mouth syndrome.

Alpha Lipoic Acid is an antioxidant. It is found inside every cell in the body, where it functions as an essential component of energy production. Because of its antioxidant activity, it neutralizes a wide variety of free radicals, many of which play a significant role in disease processes.

For diabetics, this energy production can improve glucose tolerance. How nice would it be for a diabetic to find out their body is handling sugars a little better? Diabetic neuropathy is a frequent complication of diabetes. Specifically, it is a degenerative nerve condition caused in part by nerve damage from long-term elevated blood-glucose levels. It displays symptoms of numbness, tingling and sometimes burning pain.

Nature's Sunshine Products has formulated their Alpha Lipoic Acid to also contain Turmeric, which has been shown to provide potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. We've seen many of our customers joyfully find relief in their inflammatory conditions by using turmeric alone. Combining an anti-inflammatory with a potent antioxidant can be just the relief you are looking for, and your nerve damaged parts will thank you for considering them!
