Description
ALA CR+ is a food supplement of alpha lipoic acid and chromium picolinate, in tablets. Alpha lipoic acid (ALA or thioctic acid), like the one in ALA CR +, is a molecule that can be synthesized by the body or obtained from food, especially from meat. Alpha lipoic acid is widely involved in energy metabolism at the cellular level and allows an effective conversion of carbohydrates into energy. This leads a reduction in blood glucose. In addition, it ensures a marked reduction in oxidative stress thanks to the increase in some anti-oxidant enzymes. ALA CR+ contains also chromium, an element that plays a key-role in the metabolism of macronutrients (carbohydrates, lipids and proteins) and contributes to maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.
