Summary
Lipoic acid is a versatile antioxidant known for its ability to protect the brain and nerve cells from free radicals and heavy metals that promote cognitive and neurodegenerative diseases. Lipoic acid is known as the "captain of antioxidants" because of its ability to recycle and recharge other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. Many studies have shown that lipoic acid can balance blood sugar levels and repair nerves damaged by diabetes. Moreover, this potent anti-aging nutrient has been demonstrated to mimic some of the effects of caloric restriction, the only proven method for extending lifespan and health. This product protects mitochondria from free radical damage and revitalizes damaged cells, especially those of the nerves and liver. It is an ideal partner for glutathione, the body's most potent antioxidant. In 1999, AOR became the world's first supplement manufacturer to offer pure R-lipoic acid based on the latest research. R-Lipoic Acid is a potent, natural, multifaceted antioxidant – it repairs nerves, balances blood sugar, protects the brain, and increases energy production in the mitochondria.
