5.0 out of 5 stars Diabetic's review, February 21, 2009

Being an insulin dependent diabetic for 36+ years, I take this 3 times a day 30 minutes before each meal to help slow down or hopefully stop the advance of neuropathy (permanent nerve damage especially in feet and hands related to diabetes). Nutritionist recommended this to me.

This review is from: Jarrow Formulas Alpha Lipoic Sustain 300mg, 60 Tablets (Health and Beauty)

I'm trying to avoid Type II diabetes and was told by a friend that alpha lipoic acid can help lower blood glucose levels. I have always liked Jarrow for product quality, so it was my choice.

I take one with whichever meal of the day is highest in carbs and my levels have definitely stayed lower. A one hour after eating blood glucose test used to be over 140 (after eating a high carb meal) and now I'm staying under 130.

This works for me!

5.0 out of 5 stars Helps my foot pain, May 4, 2009

This review is from: Jarrow Formulas Alpha Lipoic Sustain (Health and Beauty)

I bought these after reading several reviews of how they helped people with diabetic neuropathy. I had it really bad in my feet and was having trouble sleeping so I said I would try anything to see if it would help. These pills started to work almost immediately! I can finally get some sleep without the foot pain. I read that the R Lipoic Acid was even better for you, so I tried Drs. Best brand but it didn't seem to work as well as the Jarrow Sustain. I am back on the Jarrow Sustain. THANK YOU JARROW FOR A WONDERFUL PRODUCT!
