Vitamart's Take

R+Alpha Lipoic Acid is a straightforward product: one ingredient, 200 mg per vegetable capsule, vegan, with no fillers beyond the basics. The appeal is the R+ form — the form of lipoic acid that occurs naturally in the body — rather than the standard mixed form found in most ALA supplements. The one thing to take seriously is the blood-sugar caution on the label: if you have diabetes or take medication that affects blood sugar, talk to your practitioner before starting. Keep it in the fridge once opened.

How R+Alpha Lipoic Acid Compares

R+ form vs. standard alpha lipoic acid

Most alpha lipoic acid supplements use a 50/50 mix of the R and S forms. This product uses R+ alpha lipoic acid, the naturally occurring form, at 200 mg per capsule.

R+Alpha Lipoic Acid vs. NAC 1000mg

Prairie Naturals NAC 1000mg is N-acetyl-L-cysteine, used for glutathione and antioxidant support. Both are antioxidants; many people take them together.

R+Alpha Lipoic Acid vs. Resveratrol Rx

Resveratrol Rx combines Japanese knotweed, French red wine and green tea extracts. R+Alpha Lipoic Acid is a single nutrient, so it is easier to fit alongside other formulas.

What Is R+ Alpha Lipoic Acid?

• Alpha lipoic acid is a sulphur-containing compound the body makes in small amounts
• It exists in two mirror-image forms, R and S; the R form is the one found naturally in the body and in foods
• Standard ALA supplements are usually a 50/50 mix of R and S forms
• R+ alpha lipoic acid supplies the R form on its own
• It is soluble in both water and fat, and is valued as an antioxidant

Recommended Purpose

• Source of antioxidants for maintenance of good health

How To Use
