Super R-Lipoic Acid (240 mg, 60 vegetarian capsules)

Summary

Super R-Lipoic Acid is an advanced dietary supplement designed to provide a powerful dose of the biologically active form of alpha-lipoic acid, known as R-lipoic acid. Each vegetarian capsule contains 240 mg of R-lipoic acid in a stabilized sodium R-lipoate form, which ensures high bioavailability and rapid absorption. This antioxidant helps to protect cells from oxidative stress, promote mitochondrial function and support the body's natural detoxification processes.

Benefits and effects

Antioxidant and cell protection:
R-lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from damage caused by free radicals. This helps to maintain healthy cell structures and slow down the aging process.

Support for detoxification:

• Chelation of heavy metals: Binds to heavy metals such as mercury and lead, and helps eliminate these from the body.
• Glutathione Enhancement: Increases the body's glutathione levels, which are essential for detoxification and immune support.
• Liver Support: Improves the liver's ability to break down and eliminate toxins.

Mitochondrial support:
R-lipoic acid plays an important role in energy production in cells by promoting mitochondrial function. This can contribute to increased energy levels and reduced fatigue.

Health benefits for the nervous system:
Studies show that R-lipoic acid can help reduce symptoms of peripheral neuropathy and support general nerve health.

Support for weight control and metabolism:
R-lipoic acid can help improve insulin sensitivity and support healthy blood sugar levels, which are important for weight management.

Potentially anti-cancer properties:

• Anticancer properties: Studies have indicated that R-lipoic acid can inhibit the growth of certain cancer cells, including breast and colon cancer.
• Support for chemotherapy: Can improve the effect of some chemotherapy drugs and reduce side effects.
