Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) Significantly Improves Symptoms of Diabetic Neuropathy

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I've been taking the antioxidant ALA ( Alpha Lipoic Acid ) as part

of the Berkson study treatment for hep-c. Since I started taking it,

I've read quite a lot about it. And my searches always seems to come

up with links to articles about Diabetic Neuropathy. Here's one from

the Mayo Clinic:

ROCHESTER, Minn. — A collaborative study between Mayo Clinic and a

medical center in Russia found that alpha lipoic acid (ALA)

significantly and rapidly reduces the frequency and severity of

symptoms of the most common kind of diabetic neuropathy. Symptoms

decreased include burning and sharply cutting pain, prickling

sensations and numbness.

Hope this might help!
