R-Lipoic Acid by Country Life
Country Life - R-Lipoic Acid 100 mg. - 60 Vegetarian Capsules (Formerly Biochem)
Country Life R-Lipoic Acid contains a daily supply of R-alpha lipoic acid, an antioxidant. R-Lipoic is an active isomer of Lipoic Acid.
What is Alpha Lipoic Acid?
Alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is a vitamin-like antioxidant, sometimes referred to as the “universal antioxidant” because it is soluble in both fat and water. ALA is manufactured in the body and is found in some foods, particularly liver and yeast.
Where is ALA found?
The body makes small amounts of alpha lipoic acid. There is only limited knowledge about the food sources of this nutrient. However, foods that contain mitochondria (a specialized component of cells), such as red meats, are believed to provide the most alpha lipoic acid. Supplements are also available.

To me,,R-alpha lipoic acid is a life extension nutrient. It acts as an anti-oxidant, anti-glycation agent, blood sugar normalizer, mitochondria activator and glutathione enhancer. All of these effects counter the effects of aging, increase energy and enhance the quality of life.,,,great product,,,great price.
