- What is R-alpha lipoic acid?
- It is the naturally occurring form of alpha lipoic acid, an antioxidant the body makes in small amounts. It helps recycle vitamins C and E and supports normal energy metabolism.
- How do I take the powder?
- The label serving is 200 mg, so measure that amount and mix it into water or a drink. The sulfur taste is strong, so many people take it with juice or food.
- How is this different from regular alpha lipoic acid capsules?
- Regular capsules usually contain a 50/50 mix of the R and S forms. This powder is the R-form only, and it comes loose so you control the dose.
- Is it gluten free and sugar free?
- Yes. The powder is listed as gluten free and sugar free, with no other ingredients added.
- Can I take it with other antioxidants?
- Alpha lipoic acid is often taken alongside vitamins C and E because it helps regenerate them. Ask a doctor before combining supplements, especially if you take medication.
