Bioclinic Naturals R-Alpha-Lipoic Acid is a single-capsule supplement that supplies only the R-isomer of alpha-lipoic acid, the form the body uses in mitochondrial energy production. The R-isomer acts as a cofactor for mitochondrial enzymes and helps recycle vitamins C and E, CoQ10 and glutathione. The brand cites plasma levels nearly 1.5 times higher than the common racemic R/S mixture in older adults, so the appeal is a smaller effective dose of the active form. It suits people comparing R-ALA against cheaper racemic ALA, though the evidence for blood sugar and nerve support is modest and mostly from small studies.

Bioclinic Naturals R-Alpha-Lipoic Acid is a dietary supplement that contains only the R-isomer of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA). It is not the racemic mixture of R- and S- isomers that is commonly used. In older populations, the R-isomer raised plasma levels nearly 1.5 times higher than the racemic mixture.
The R-isomer of ALA is a cofactor for mitochondrial enzymes and a substrate for glutathione reductase. It takes part in the citric acid cycle and ATP production. It also recycles other antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, CoQ10 and glutathione.
This supplement has antioxidant activity and helps maintain healthy mitochondrial function. It may support healthy neurological function and normal peripheral neurological function. It may also support blood glucose levels and insulin sensitivity that are already within the normal range. ALA may support wound healing when combined with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
