How R-Lipoic Acid Works
R-Lipoic Acid is part of Pure Encapsulations Antioxidants product line.
R-Lipoic Acid provides Sodium R-alpha-lipoic acid, which is a highly bioavailable and stabilized form of R-lipoic acid. Regular R-lipoic acid is heat sensitive and may polymerize extensively, decreasing its absorption significantly. In real-time stability tests, sodium R-lipoic remained stable for 12 months. The natural R isomer of alpha-lipoic acid may provide antioxidant support, and support normal energy production and general metabolic function. In a recent in vitro study at the Buck Institute for Aging in California, R–lipoic acid moderated oxidative stress in neurons. A related study demonstrates the ability of R–lipoic acid to support memory tasks in animals by supporting normal mitochondrial function and supporting cells from free radicals. Another animal study suggested that R–lipoic acid supported normal glucose metabolism. Additional studies suggest that R-lipoic acid supports normal glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle.
