Lipoic acid is a versatile antioxidant known for its ability to protect brain and nerve cells from free radicals and heavy metals that promote cognitive and neurodegenerative diseases. Lipoic acid is known as the “captain of antioxidants” because of its ability to recycle and recharge other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. Numerous studies have demonstrated that lipoic acid can balance blood sugar levels and repair nerves damaged by diabetes. What’s more, this powerful anti-aging nutrient has been shown to mimic some of the effects of calorie restriction, the only tested method of extending lifespan and health; this happens by protecting mitochondria from free radical damage. Because of its action on mitochondria, it can revive damaged cells, especially those found in the nerves and liver. It is an important partner for glutathione, the most powerful antioxidant produced in the body.

In 1999, AOR announced the production of a pure R ( ) lipoic acid based on the latest research, and a world first. Unlike most conventional alpha-lipoic acid supplements, AOR’s 95% pure R ( ) lipoic acid offers the most effective form of this important antioxidant without the harmful S (-) effects of lipoic acid.

R-lipoic acid is a powerful, natural, fine-tuned antioxidant involved in nerve repair, blood sugar balancing, brain protection and mitochondrial energy enhancement. Regular doses of lipoic acid are recommended for the maintenance of optimal health, while high doses of R ( ) lipoic acid are recommended for weight management, hyperglycemia and diabetic neuropathy.
