Alpha Lipoic is a
vitamin - like
antioxidant that is
sometimes referred
to as the "universal
antioxidant,"
because it is
soluble in both fat
and water. It has
several potential
benefits for
diabetics. It
enhances glucose
uptake in
non-insulin-dependent
diabetes (NIDDM),
inhibits
glycosylation (the
abnormal attachment
of sugar to
protein), and has
been used to improve
diabetic nerve
damage and reduce
pain associated with
that nerve damage.
