Description
Lipoic Acid Supreme provides 300 mg of alpha-lipoic acid and 500 mg of taurine per capsule to promote healthy metabolic function, glucose metabolism, and antioxidant status in the body.* Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that plays an important role in energy metabolism by helping to maintain healthy blood glucose and lipid metabolism, and by promoting normal insulin and mitochondrial function.*
Recommended Use: Take 1 capsule per day with a meal or as directed by your health-care practitioner.
Lipoic acid is a sulfur-containing compound that helps the body respond to of 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 to support brain health by promoting 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.*
