Normal Functioning of Metabolic Processes Needed in Energy Production
Protection Against Glycosylation
Lipoic Acid, a strong antioxidant with a double lipophilic and hydrophilic action limits the oxidation and protects the sensitive structures of the body that are most affected. Carnitine is a blocker of glycosylation and reduces the formation of AGE. Studies reveal that the cells of the diabetics have lower levels of Carnitine and are the same levels of people of older age.
Chronic hyperglycemia in people with diabetes contributes to small vascular diseases. Vessel damage in connection to diabetes can affect the heart (cardiomyopathy), the kidneys (kidney disease), the retina, the peripheral nervous system. In people with diabetes, hyperglycemia alters the function of the bone marrow derived from endothelial progenitor cells -EPC- that is vital for the development of blood vessels.
It is interesting that a higher daily intake of Thiamine from the diet has been associated with a higher circulation of EPC and with the better well-being of the vascular endothelium 88 people with Type II Diabetes.
An inverse correlation has also been found between thiamine concentrations in blood plasma in diabetic patients and in the presence of soluble vascular adhesion molecule (1 sVCAM-1), that is a marker of vascular dysfunction. Early indicators of kidney disease include the presence of albumin in the urine, which is known as microalbuminuria.
