What is Doctor’s Best Stabilized R-Lipoic-Acid?
Alpha-lipoic acid is a sulfur-containing fatty acid that performs vitamin-like roles in the body but since the body produces lipoic-acid on its own, it is not classified as a true vitamin. It functions as a co-enzyme in the metabolism of carbohydrates and is required for synthesis of acetyl CoA, a key metabolite in the cellular process that turns glucose (blood sugar) into energy. Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid contains BioEnhanced Na-RLA, the sodium salt of R-Lipoic acid. Pure R-Lipoic acid is a very unstable molecule that has a tendency to polymerize with exposure to heat, light, and moisture. BioEnhanced Na-RLA is a stabilized form of R-Lipoic acid that won’t degrade at high temperatures.
How does it work?
Lipoic acid is a key factor in the cellular process that metabolizes glucose for energy production. Aging is accompanied by a decreased ability of the liver to recycle ascorbic acid following oxidative stress. R-lipoic acid, has been shown after two weeks of supplementation to aged rats, to reverse the age-related impairment of ascorbic acid recycling and concentration in liver cells. Aging is also associated with oxidative stress in the brain. The brain’s high rate of metabolism and its long-lived neurons make it particularly vulnerable to oxidative stress. Since lipoic-acid interrupts cellular oxidative processes in both its oxidized and reduced forms, it plays a modulatory role in the brain and nervous system.
Why should I take Doctor’s Best Stabilized R-Lipoic-Acid?
An ideal antioxidant would have the ability to quench a wide variety of free radicals, to support the functioning of other antioxidants, to bind or “chelate” metal ions that can generate free radicals, to function in watery and fatty environments and to be present in a variety of tissues, cells, and extracellular spaces. Lipoic-acid meets all of these criteria and is often termed as “the universal antioxidant.” As we age, our ability to synthesize alpha-lipoic acid decreases. Age also brings an accumulation of oxidized proteins that interfere with mitochondrial efficiency and Alpha-lipoic acid addresses this situation. Alpha-lipoic acid comes in two forms, designated as “R-lipoic acid” and “S-lipoic acid.” R- and S- lipoic acid are enantiomer isomers–molecules that appear as mirror images of each other. R-lipoic acid is naturally synthesized by humans, animals, and plants.

Good quality. I took it in the morning 1 hour before a meal (on an empty stomach) for better absorption and it doesn’t upset my stomach. On the 2nd bottles already.

This supplement is made with high quality vegan ingredients backed by verifiable science. It provides enhanced antioxidant activity while supporting energy production. It has the ability to neutralize free radicals that damage cells. A powerful antioxidant that fights and protects against age-related oxidative stress. The capsule size is easy to swallow and comes in a nice package.

It’s a good quality and it’s both fat and water soluble so you can take it without food. I usually take it in the evening before bedtime so I will sleep well without pain the size is good each pack is enough for 6 months…. It supports the body’s antioxidant defenses. It breaks down and converts fatty acids and carbohydrates into energy. This is an important supplement for fibromilgia patients…. If you like my review, hit the thumbs up button to help me get a point and thank you.

Like most health conscious people with diabetes, I have read all about ALA, and according to all the research and leading articles written on the subject. Obviously, R-lipoic acid is the only one your body uses (compared to S-lipoic). Doctor’s Best really is the best (5 stars!) when it comes to “fillers” which are mostly all natural, but I just wish they found a way to stop using silica as a filler, even if that helps any other ingredients. to stick together.

My wife and I switched from alpha lipoid acid to this just to try. Both of our stomachs reacted badly with ala but when we ordered this and started taking it instead, the burning sensations disappeared immediately. There is no aftertaste, the brand is among the best in terms of quality and price. At our age, it begins to show how we live, this product benefits us both a healthy and active life.

powerful antioxidant, this product does what it promises and more. After a month of regular use, I have noticed marked improvements in mobility, mental acuity, my skin texture is much softer and firmer and I have an abundance of energy than I didn’t. haven’t had for a long time. Definitely a keeper!

R-lipoic acid by itself acts as a necessary factor for many enzymes involved in energy production. It also has properties such as powerful antioxidant effects that promote liver, brain, nervous system and eye health. I take 1 capsule a day in the morning on an empty stomach. The quality is top notch, and is also satisfied with the 100mg dosage.

I googled and read about it and decided to try Lipid Acid R Stabilized with BioEnhancer Na RALA Doctors Best Brand and it has made a wonderful difference in my nerve pain. I have so many more hood days thanks to this product. A satisfied customer.
