Healthy Blood Sugar and Insulin

Decreased ability for cells to use insulin and sugar in the body to produce energy, leads to elevated blood sugar that can damage blood vessels, vision, kidneys, legs, the heart and other organs.

Complications from high blood sugar are expensive and dangerous. High blood sugar causes decreased circulation in the body, leading to nerve and blood vessel damage. Blindness  and numbness and tingling in the legs and/or arms can be experienced in people with an inability to moderate their blood sugar and insulin.

Alpha Lipoic Acid has been shown to promote and maintain healthy insulin and blood sugar. The optimal amount of Alpha Lipoic Acid shown in one study was 600 mg daily, which reduced by 51% the numbness, tingling and pain in the feet of people with elevated blood sugar.¹ Other studies using alpha lipoic acid have reported similar benefits.^2,3,4

L-Carnitine is an amino acid that’s been extensively studied for its effects on promoting healthy blood sugar levels.^5,6,7 A review article published in the Annals of the New York Academy of Science on L-Carnitine and Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALC), concluded that L-carnitine and ALC are effective in promoting healthy blood sugar and insulin.⁸

Only MitoForte contains all three ingredients—Alpha Lipoic Acid, L-Carnitine and Acetyl-L-Carnitine—to help promote and maintain healthy insulin and blood sugar.
