6-Deoxy-L-galactitol
6-Deoxy-L-galactitol, a sugar alcohol, exhibits promising therapeutic capabilities for the management of diabetic complications. Its ability to manipulate aldose reductase, an enzyme that transfigures glucose to sorbitol impedes the accumulation of sorbitol in cells. Furthermore, studies suggest it could potentially be used as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent.
