Thioctic Acid (alpha-Lipoic Acid) - the special antioxidant

Hyperglycemia, which often occurs in diabetes mellitus patients, causes increased production of free oxygen radicals that damage peripheral nerves.

Alpha-lipoic acid is a free-radical scavenger that catches damaging oxygen radicals both in aqueous and lipid soluble cell environments, thereby counteracting the sensory disorders of diabetic polyneuropathy.

Since our body can only absorb a very small quantity of alpha-lipoic acid through our diet like innards, an additional supply is recommended.

Thiogamma® contains the active ingredient alpha-lipoic acid that protects the nerve cell from damaging degradation products and free radicals, thus being able to improve nerve conductivity.
