Product details:
Health Benefits at a Glance:

R-lipoic acid is a truly unique antioxidant that safeguards the cells against free radicals, supports healthy mitochondria, and promotes energy production. (1)

This means that Super R-Lipoic Acid allows cells to produce energy and function under better-than-normal conditions, providing your body with the power it needs while protecting the cells for better cell function.

The product is non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegetarian.


Why it Works:

Alpha lipoic acid is an important part of cellular energy production and maintenance. Super R-Lipoic Acid is a cellular energy health support supplement.

The active “R” form of lipoic acid is an antioxidant powerhouse, far more than conventional alpha-lipoic acid products. 

This bestselling lipoic acid product provides a powerful 240 mg dose of this “active” form of alpha lipoic acid (R-lipoic acid) in each capsule.


The Science Behind the Product:

Two different forms of alpha-lipoic acid

Alpha-lipoic acid consists of two different forms of isomers (R and S) have greatly different properties:

  • The “R” form is the biologically active component that is amenable for lipoic acid’s phenomenal antioxidant effect. The “S” form is produced from chemical manufacture. Alpha-lipoic acid supplements typically consist of the "R" and "S" form in a 50/50 ratio.
  • The "R" form of lipoic acid is normally produced and used by the human body. R-lipoic acid plays a role in, scavenging free radicals. Furthermore, it has been shown that “R” form of lipoic acid is more potent than the combined "R" and "S" forms that ordinarily comprise alpha-lipoic acid supplements. (1-11)

Next generation antioxidant

  • Research has indicated that a newer form of R-lipoic acid has been found. This sodium-R-lipoate can be seen as the "next-generation" antioxidant powerhouse. 
  • R-lipoic acid already has shown better bioavailability, stability, and provide a vast majority of health benefits. It was shown that the newer lipoic acid formulation reached higher peak blood levels and it also achieves them sooner, assuring rapid uptake from the plasma into the tissues. (12)


How to Use:
  • Take one (1) to two (2) capsules daily as tolerated, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.
  • Take capsules at the same time, preferably on an empty stomach.
  • Suitable for vegetarians.
