The main ingredient in PLEXUS Slim is *Alpha lipoic acid, an antioxidant. When I began taking PLEXUS Slim a year ago, I had been on an alpha lipoic acid supplement for over a year. I was also skeptical because I was already taking a vast amount of supplements on a daily basis. Three days into taking PLEXUS Slim I had increased stamina and was sleeping better. My biggest improvement came after a few weeks when I was able to bend up and down for the first time in years, without feeling dizzy and lightheaded. PLEXUS Slim has become a regular part of my daily protocol and I’m thrilled to be able to share it with you all.
When you order one of the welcome packs we will send you one of our brand new FIGHT.HEAL.LIVE coffee mugs!!! Every morning when you wake up and drink PLEXUS out of your new mug, know that we are cheering you on in your journey towards wellness! Please contact me on Facebook or email if you have any questions! ~Sarah Schlichte Sanchez
* Here is what WebMD says about Alpha lipoic acid:
Alpha-lipoic acid is a vitamin-like chemical called an antioxidant. Yeast, liver, kidney, spinach, broccoli, and potatoes are good sources of alpha-lipoic acid. It is also made in the laboratory for use as medicine.
Alpha-lipoic acid is used for diabetes and nerve-related symptoms of diabetes including burning, pain, and numbness in the legs and arms. High doses of alpha-lipoic acid are approved in Germany for the treatment of these symptoms.
Some people use alpha-lipoic acid for memory loss, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS),HIV/AIDS, cancer, liver disease, diseases of the heart and blood vessels (including a disorder called cardiac autonomic neuropathy) and Lyme disease.
Alpha-lipoic acid is also used to treat eye-related disorders, such as damage to the retina, cataracts, glaucoma, and an eye disease called Wilson’s disease.
How does it work?
Alpha-lipoic acid seems to help prevent certain kinds of cell damage in the body, and also restores vitamin levels such as vitamin E and vitamin C. There is also evidence that alpha-lipoic acid can improve the function and conduction of neurons in diabetes.
Alpha-lipoic acid is used in the body to break down carbohydrates and to make energy for the other organs in the body.
Alpha-lipoic acid seems to work as an antioxidant, which means that it might provide protection to the brain under conditions of damage or injury. The antioxidant effects might also be helpful in certain liver diseases.
