## Description

What Is Super R-Lipoic Acid? Published studies have shown the critical importance of lipoic acid in cellular energy maintenance, and our best-selling Super R-Lipoic Acid provides more of the active "R" form than conventional alpha-lipoic acid products.

Review: Damaged Capsules in Every Bottle — Not Worth the Price - Every time I buy this product, I find at least 2–3 capsules in the bottle that are damaged — the shell is cracked and the powder spills everywhere. The manufacturer makes terrible capsules despite the high price. This is very disappointing, especially for a premium supplement.

## Features

- Why our Lipoic Acid is “SUPER” - Most supplements use a 50/50 ratio of the active “R” form of lipoic acid, which means it’s challenging for your body to absorb it fully. But based on numerous studies, we’ve developed a formula that includes a highly bioavailable form of lipoic acid. The biologically active “R” form reaches higher blood concentration sooner, giving your body more of this nutrient to use, and more time to use it so that you get maximum benefits of this powerful antioxidant.
- Keep the Energy Flowing - The highly bioavailable “R” form of lipoic acid in our formula has remarkable antioxidant properties. It helps protect your mitochondria from oxidative stress caused by free radicals, promoting healthy mitochondrial function and encouraging youthful cellular energy.
- High Bioavailability, Rapid Intake - Bioavailability is the time it takes for an ingested supplement to reach the bloodstream—as well as how much of it gets absorbed. The more bioavailable a supplement is, the more beneficial it is. Our innovative formula has up to 30 times the bioavailable levels of standard R-lipoic formulas. It’s designed to ensure rapid uptake from the plasma into the tissues—all in an easy-to-swallow capsule.
- Ingredients Matter - Sourced using only the finest raw ingredients with the purity and potency your body deserves; This product is certified non-GMO and gluten-free; Manufactured in the USA and a Certificate of Analysis is available
- Live Your Healthiest Life - We believe the answers to a healthier, richer life are within reach and that rigorous scientific research is the path to get us there; Formulations are created using the exact ingredients and dosages

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do the 'other ingredients' now list magnesium stearate?  There is no magnesium stearate listed in the photo.**
A: Could someone please explain what is junky about the magnesium salt of a natural occurring fatty acid?  Do you refuse to eat chocolate because its fats are at least 25% stearic acid?
What would you prefer they use as a flow control agent?   Cadmium oleate?

**Q: Does this contain magnesium stearate?  I this made and sourced in the US?**
A: Just purchased on 1/26/17 and yes now contains Stearic acid. Very upsetting cause before ingredients were: veggie capsule, rice flour and Leucine. I will not be buying anymore Lifeextension products. The whole point in taking a supplement is to get healthier not ingest more poisonous fillers. Im very upset about this change in ingredients.

**Q: Is this r-lipoic acid or is it r-alpha lipoic acid?**
A: Alpha-lipoic acid supplements typically consist of an "R" and "S" form in a 50/50 ratio.  The "S" form is not very active in the body and the "R" form is the highly active form that is responsible for the antioxidant effect.  If you have additional questions or concerns please call our Wellness Specialists toll-free at 1-800-226-2370. You can reach them from 8 a.m. to 1 a.m. weekdays and 9 a.m. to 1 a.m. weekends ET.

**Q: Is this r-lipoic acid or is it r-alpha lipoic acid?**
A: It doesn't say on the bottle, but I have assumed it was r-alpha lipoic acid.  I checked to see what the difference was between the two (online) and it says that alpha lipoic acid exists in two forms S-alpha and R-alpha lipoic acid.  The S form is not natural, but the R form is.  That is all I know.

I have only been taking this for a month, however I definitely noticed some differences pertaining to my neuropathy and fibromyalgia pain. Would like to keep using it, however it is rather expensive.
