We aimed to understand how alpha-lipoic acid (LA) affects wound healing in diabetic conditions. The study involved five groups of mice: healthy controls, wounded healthy mice, wounded diabetic mice, and two groups of wounded diabetic mice treated with different doses of LA for 14 days.
Our findings indicated that LA plays a significant role in improving the healing process. It works by balancing the levels of anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory factors that are essential for wound recovery. Specifically, we saw effects on various immune cell types that are vital for healing, indicating that LA may help to enhance recovery in diabetic wounds.
This study highlights the potential of LA as a supportive treatment option for wound healing in diabetic patients, ultimately aiming to reduce the risk of infections and improve overall recovery from injuries.

As I aged, I noticed my memory declining. Checking my thiamine levels showed they were low, especially on strict diets. Since taking Benfotiamine, I’ve experienced improvements in memory, sleep, and reduced irritability, making it easier to manage my diabetes. I suggest taking this complex as it also protects skin health.
