Lipoic Synergy 180 Caps

Research suggests that Lipoic Acid increases the need for Biotin by lowering levels of Biotin dependent enzymes. Thus Lipoic Acid should always be taken with biotin. Lipoic Synergy contains lipoic acid, biotin, and taurine which all support blood sugar and insulin balance, making a great combination.

Lipoic Acid is incredible, but I highly recommend you purchase the Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid form instead instead of this one since research shows that R-Lipoic is the form which fits into the receptors perfectly while regular Lipoic Acid only contains 50% of the correct form. Click on the above link to read about the stabilized "R" form which is a much superior product.

Lipoic Acid has been extensively researched for its applications in diabetes, blood sugar metabolism, heavy metal detoxification, liver health, hepatitis, and diabetic neuropathy. Lipoic acid has also been studied for its effects on the aging process and in the prevention of wrinkling by protecting collagen in the skin. Most importantly, it has been found to be an essential nutrient for diabetics to optimize the function of the insulin receptors.
