Thorne Research R-Lipoic Acid - 60 Capsules Feature
- Lipoic acid protects brain cells from the damaging effect of toxic chemicals
- Comprised either of R-lipoic acid alone or a mixture of R and S forms.
- Naturally occurring lipoic acid is in the R configuration.
Numerous studies point to the neuroprotective effects of alpha-lipoic acid, due to its potent antioxidant effects in both fat-and water-soluble environments. Lipoic acid protects brain cells from the damaging effect of toxic chemicals and, in one study, only R-lipoic acid (but not S-lipoic acid or the racemic mixture) was neuroprotective. Nutritional supplements of alpha-lipoic acid are typically comprised either of R-lipoic acid alone or a mixture of R and S forms. Naturally occurring lipoic acid is in the R configuration. Human studies using oral mixtures of lipoic acid have observed blood levels of R-lipoic acid to be greater than blood levels of S-lipoic acid - double in one study - indicating better absorption of the R form.
