Summary
Lipoic acid is a versatile antioxidant known for its ability to protect the brain and nerve cells from free radicals and heavy metals that promote cognitive and neurodegenerative diseases. Lipoic acid is known as the "captain of antioxidants" because of its ability to recycle and recharge other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. Numerous studies have shown that lipoic acid can balance blood sugar and repair nerves damaged by diabetes. Moreover, it has been shown that this potent anti-aging nutrient mimics some of the effects of caloric restriction, the only proven method to extend lifespan and health. This product protects mitochondria from damage caused by free radicals and revitalizes damaged cells, especially those of the nerves and liver. It is an ideal partner for glutathione, the most potent antioxidant produced by the body.
