R-Fraction Alpha Lipoic Acid 50mg

What is R-Fraction Alpha Lipoic Acid 50mg

Swanson R-Fraction Alpha Lipoic Acid 50mg is a food supplement providing alpha lipoic acid (ALA) in the R-form only. Alpha lipoic acid is a naturally occurring compound in the human body and is involved as a cofactor in enzymatic reactions linked to cellular energy production.

This product comes in a pack of 60 capsules.

Main features

• Contains only the R-isomer of alpha lipoic acid, the form that naturally occurs in the human body
• Conventional ALA supplements often use a 50/50 mixture of R- and S-isomers; this formula focuses on the R-form
• Alpha lipoic acid is described as a cofactor in enzymatic reactions involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats
• Swanson indicates it has addressed previous stability issues to offer an R-form-only ALA supplement

Who it is for

This product may be suitable for adults looking for an alpha lipoic acid supplement that contains only the R-form, rather than a mixed-isomer (racemic) ALA product.

How to use it

Follow the directions on the product label. The existing product information recommends taking one capsule daily with water and not exceeding the recommended intake.
