Bioadditive 'Alpha-lipoic acid' - an assistant in the fight against diabetes

Bioadditive "Alpha-lipoic acid" appeared relatively recently. And it turned out that this is an excellent tool that helps people with diabetes to treat nerve damage. It is not only a powerful antioxidant, but also an excellent protection of the liver and brain cells. It is also important that it is well absorbed by virtually all tissues of the body.

The fact that the "Alpha-lipoic acid" bioadditive is able to neutralize free radicals, which are the most dangerous for cells, was discovered relatively recently, in the late 1980s. Much earlier, in the mid-1950s, it was discovered that this substance can accelerate the processes of energy production by interacting with enzymes.

The body itself can produce such a substance in a small amount, we can also get it in such foods as liver, meat, spinach. Especially a lot of this acid in brewer's yeast. But, as a rule, this is not enough. Therefore, nutritionists are usually advised to take this supplement with food.

How does the drug "Alpha-lipoic acid" affect human cells?

As you know, the body can store energy for later use, getting it from proteins, fats and carbohydrates. The catalyst in this process are vitamins of group B, and the bioadditive "Alpha-lipoic acid" in this actively helps them.

In addition, being itself a strong antioxidant, it significantly increases the effectiveness of others, for example, vitamins A and E. Cells of the liver and brain, its nerve cells are very well absorbed due to the unique chemical properties of the acid. This allows you to use it in the treatment of many diseases, sometimes completely different.

The main effect is the diabetic orientation

As is known, one of the dangerous chronic complications of diabetes is diabetic neuropathy, in which nerves are damaged. This is partly due to the fact that free radicals act on nerve cells in large quantities. This process increases if the blood glucose level increases. The drug "Alpha-lipoic acid" counteracts this, as the acid is a strong antioxidant.

For patients with diabetes, it may also be important that under the influence of this dietary supplement increases sensitivity to insulin-hormone. Special studies were carried out which showed that the level of glucose in blood was reduced in patients taking the drug "Alpha-lipoic acid". And experiments on animals have shown that this acid can be treated with numbness, as it improves the conductivity of nerve impulses, increasing the flow of blood to the nerves.

There are also additional features that the "Alpha-lipoic acid" dietary supplement has. Instructions for use indicate them. This is an opportunity:

• Improve memory (this can be used to treat Alzheimer's disease, for example);
• Protect brain cells from damage (after a stroke or surgery);
• To delay the development of glaucoma (improving the blood supply to the brain);
• Protect the liver (for alcohol abuse, for example).

Can everyone take a dietary supplement "Alpha-lipoic acid"?

The use of this biologically active agent is absolutely safe. In therapeutic doses, the dietary supplement can be used in treatment for two years, and this will not give any side effects. In very rare cases of individual intolerance, there may be an allergic rash or a slight gastrointestinal disorder. However, diabetics should consult a doctor before taking this supplement. Perhaps the doctor will adjust the dosage of insulin and other drugs.

Not so long ago, a new additive "Turboslim alpha lipoic acid" appeared. Its action is due to the constituents: vitamins of group B, L-carnitine and, in fact, alpha-lipoic acid. Possessing all the above qualities, this preparation can smooth wrinkles and remove pigment spots, that is, it effectively affects the skin.
