Super Lipoic Acid offers 600 mg of lipoic acid per capsule to support healthy glucose metabolism and antioxidant defense. An antioxidant in both its oxidized and reduced forms, lipoic acid can scavenge free radicals, regenerate endogenous antioxidants (such as glutathione and vitamins C and E) and bind metal ions to reduce metal-induced oxidative stress. This unique water- and fat-soluble oxidant can also protect beta cells from damage caused by oxidative stress. Because it supports antioxidant defense with multiple actions in almost every part of the cell, it is recognized as the "universal antioxidant". In addition, lipoic acid stimulates glucose uptake by increasing the number of GLUT4 glucose transporters on cell membranes, which promotes healthy glucose metabolism. In a randomized, placebo-controlled trial, daily supplementation with 300 mg lipoic acid promoted healthy glucose metabolism, as demonstrated by reductions in fasting blood glucose and insulin resistance. In addition, consumption of 600 mg lipoic acid daily for at least three months significantly reduced oxidative stress in adults as measured by a marker of lipid peroxidation.
Adults: Take 1 capsule daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
