In the body, R-lipoic acid helps support healthy mitochondria, cellular energy, and protects against oxidative stress.R Lipoic Acid is Biologically ActiveAlpha-lipoic acid, the universal antioxidant, consists of two different forms, R and S, which have different properties. The R form is the biologically active component (native to the body) that is responsible for lipoic acids phenomenal antioxidant effect. The S form is not very biologically active. Alpha-lipoic acid supplements typically consist of the R and S form in a 50/50 ratio. That means a 100 mg alpha-lipoic acid supplement usually provides 50 mg of the biologically active R form.The human body normally produces and uses the R form of lipoic acid. Our product contains only the biologically active R form and provides a whooping 240 mg per serving!
