Alpha-Lipoic Acid per Insulin Resistance

B Evidenze Almeno un trial randomizzato lo supporta, con risultati per lo più coerenti.

Alpha-lipoic acid activates AMPK in multiple tissues. RCTs demonstrate improved insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetics. It is approved in Germany for diabetic neuropathy at 600 mg/day. Both fat- and water-soluble, it reaches all tissue compartments.
