Design For Health Lipoic Acid Supreme™ 60Capsule

Lipoic Acid Supreme

HELPS TO PROMOTE HEALTHY GLUCOSE METABOLISM
60 VEGETARIAN CAPSULES 

Designs for Health’s Lipoic Acid Supreme provides 300
mg of alpha lipoic acid and 500 mg of taurine per
1-capsule serving to promote metabolic health, healthy
glucose metabolism, and antioxidant status in the body.
Together, these ingredients support antioxidant status
and help promote healthy blood glucose metabolism.
Lipoic acid is a sulfur-containing compound that helps
the body respond to oxidative stress. Both the oxidized
and reduced forms of lipoic acid support the regeneration
of other antioxidants, including glutathione (the body’s
master antioxidant) and vitamins C and E, and coenzyme
Q10. In the body, lipoic acid supports modulation of the
hormone insulin and certain inflammatory pathways.
Lipoic acid has also been shown in research to be able to
cross the blood-brain barrier helping promote the body’s
antioxidant status in the brain.
Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that plays an
important role in energy metabolism and metabolic
health. Taurine also helps maintain healthy blood glucose
and lipid metabolism, and it supports insulin and
mitochondrial function. This formula is ideal for individuals
seeking support maintaining a healthy glycemic response
and metabolic function.
Taurine is also an amino acid found in all mammalian tissues,
but not in plant foods. Taurine is synthesized from the
amino acids methionine and cysteine, but the body’s
internal capacity to produce it is estimated to be very low in
humans, making taurine a conditionally essential amino acid.
This means that it is nonessential but can become essential
in certain circumstances, such as pregnancy or illness.
Taurine also supports antioxidant status and mitochondrial
function by helping to scavenge free radicals and
supporting the stabilization of mitochondrial membranes.
