Functional Use:
R-(+)Lipoic Acid has
been called the mitochondrial antioxidant because it is a key component
of mitochondrial dehydrogenase complexes, which may help slow the
natural aging process in animals. R-lipoic acid may be more effective
than other forms of lipoic acid in increasing or maintaining levels of
other antioxidants that may decline with age, including CoQ10, vitamins
C and E, and glutathione, according to animal research.
