Alpha Lipoic Acid is a powerful water and lipid-soluble antioxidant, capable of functioning virtually anywhere in the body. It promotes healthy glucose metabolism, supports the nervous system, and supports healthy liver function. Additionally, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial showed it supported nerve health. Alpha lipoic acid's ability to modulate nitric oxide metabolite activity and promote healthy microcirculation are believed to be responsible for its nerve cell supporting effects.*
