Application:  
Alpha Lipoic acid is a water-soluble and fat soluble metabolic antioxidant, which is similar to vitamins. It is an antioxidant with "the most function and the strongest activity" among all antioxidants.

1. Help patients reduce their dependence on insulin and hypoglycemic drugs

α- Lipoic acid is the only universal oxygen activator with both fat solubility and water solubility, and the force of lipoic acid is longer than that of other antioxidants. Lipoic acid can balance blood sugar, promote glucose absorption, improve glycemic control in patients with diabetes, and reduce the use of insulin or hypoglycemic drugs.

2. Protect the nerve tissue of diabetic patients and help treat peripheral neuropathy.

Foreign research shows that α Lipoic acid can significantly improve the clinical symptoms caused by diabetic peripheral neuropathy. It has been recommended in Germany for adjuvant treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy for more than 30 years. α Lipoic acid can protect the nerve tissue of diabetic patients and help to treat inflammation caused by protein deposition in nerve cells.

3. Alpha Lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant

α The antioxidant capacity of lipoic acid is 5-10 times that of grape seed, and the antioxidant capacity of grape seed is 20 times that of vitamin C. Vitamin E is 60 times that of fat soluble and water soluble, and can be absorbed by various tissues and organs.
