Alpha-lipoic acid for burning mouth syndrome

  Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) a powerful antioxidant often mentioned on this site and found in Neurazest (see New Product Launch and download the scientific report) has been found to effectively manage burning mouth syndrome a condition associated with chronic pain located to the tongue found mostly in postmenopausal women. A study found that 74 % of those subjects who received this medication at a dose of 200mg 3 times daily for 4 months experienced significant improvements while 13% enjoyed complete resolution of their symptoms. It was also noted that after twelve months 73% of those who persisted with their treatment sustained ongoing reduction in their symptoms.

ALA has been used to manage different types of neuropathies including diabetic neuropathy and it is though that burning mouth syndrome constitutes another form of neuropathy.
