Pure Encapsulations R-Lipoic Acid (Stabilized) Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid for Antioxidant and Metabolic Support Sodium R-alpha-lipoic acid 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 acid remained stable for 12 months. The natural R isomer of alpha-lipoic acid may provide enhanced antioxidant activity, while supporting energy production and general metabolic function. Key Benefits and Features: Ages 18 and up Cellular energy and metabolic health support Antioxidant support Supports neutralization of free radicals and enhances cellular activity Potential to provide enhanced antioxidant activity, cellular energy production, and general metabolic function Provides a highly bioavailable form of R-Lipoic acid Made with high-quality vegan ingredients backed by verifiable science Ingredients Serving Size: 1 Vegetarian Capsule Amount/Serving Sodium 14 g R-lipoic acid 100 mg Other Ingredients: Hypoallergenic plant fiber (cellulose), vegetarian capsule (cellulose, water), sodium carbonate, and ascorbyl palmitate.

Studies suggest that R-lipoic acid promotes glucose metabolism in skeletal muscle. A University of California Berkeley study indicates that R-lipoic acid may be protective against age-related oxidative stress in the liver. Furthermore, a study at Oregon State University established a potential role for R-lipoic acid in protecting the heart from age-related oxidative stress.
