• R-LIPOIC ACID contains 50 mg of potassium stabilized R-Alpha Lipoic acid (KRALA). The R-Lipoic acid in this product is of the highest quality available and is contained in a vegetarian capsule.

• R-Alpha Lipoic acid is normally made in the human body, where it functions primarily as an important metabolic nutrient -- especially in the conversion of pyruvic acid into acetyl coenzyme A. It thereby plays a crucial role in the metabolism of fats and carbohydrates into energy.

• R-Lipoic acid functions as an extremely powerful antioxidant capable of trapping many different types of free radicals in the body.

• Because it is both water-soluble and fat-soluble, R-Lipoic acid operates in a broader range of body tissues than most other antioxidants. Structurally, its small size enables R-Lipoic acid to enter areas of the body not easily accessible to many other antioxidant substances. This allows it, for example, to enter the cell nucleus and prevent free-radical damage to DNA.

• As a powerful antioxidant that can easily function both in reduced and oxidized states, R-Lipoic acid can protect other important antioxidants, including Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and glutathione.

• R-Lipoic acid can chelate heavy metals, including lead, cadmium, mercury, free iron, and free copper from the body.

• R-Lipoic acid is one of two nutrients known (milk thistle extract being the other) to protect against mushroom poisoning.

• Due to its potent capabilities, R-Lipoic acid is used for a wide range of applications, including diabetes, cataracts, AIDS, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, detoxification, neurological function, cancer, heart disease, and liver disorders.
