Source NaturalsR-Lipoic Acid 100mg, 30 Tablets

As offered. Thank you for your care that I received very neatly and securely packaged. Will enjoy for a long time!

I used this product to replace taking two tablets of Alpha lipoic acid. It met my expectations. I only had to take one tablet a day. The tablets go down smooth. I take Alpha lipoic acid to help keep my blood sugar under contro. Taking R-Lipoic acid I didn't really see a difference. "They" say R-Lipoic acid is a more specific form of Alpha lipoic acid. What ever that means.

I was thrilled to find this so easily available. It was recommended by a nutritionist who was allergic to insulin.It needs to be paired with Biotin, and works great. My doctor is okay with it.

One of those supplements that is great for overall health. Source Naturals is a well tested brand through independent lab testing, and the R-form of ALA is superior. Don't get regular ALA as that is the S- form and not well utilized by the body.Even better if you can get the Na-R-ALA form, but this R- form will do as well. Knocked down a star since it's not the Na-R form, but still a solid supplement.

I ordered this product out of desperation. My usual Subscribe & Save, R-Lipoic Acid, was NOTavailable at the time my order needed to be filled. I know its essential to get only the "R" (& NOT the"S") form. So, this was one of the other few that let me know what was in the supplement. I wasvery pleased that this was a capsule shaped pill and not an actual gelatin capsule. They are SOmuch easier to swallow. The gelatin capsules seem to get stuck in my throat; and I do at timeshave problems swallowing due to Post Polio Syndrome.Only time will tell me, if this product reacts with my system the same as the Doctor's Best brand.But, I'm hopeful.

Ordinarily I'm skeptical about supplements. Good ones from reputable manufacturers can be expensive, the cheap ones can be worthless or even do harm. However, a neurologist suggested I take 300-600 mg daily of the 'regular' alpha lipoic acid for peripheral neuropathy. After reading about alpha-lipoic acid in several peer-review journal articles, I opted for a dose of 200 mg per day of the R-Lipoic version from Source Naturals.Over a period of several months, I've noticed some improvement, so I will continue to use this.

My only complaint is that the pills are huge! Thankfully I don't have swollowing problems but I had trouble fitting them in my pill case.

Helpful staff info.

5　or　10粒を目安に飲んでいます。ダイエット効果としては、うっすらとおなかに縦筋が見えてはいます。(3か月)それよりも、アルコールを飲んだ後の酔い覚め、尿の泡が改善しています。(毎日2粒時で実感)なぜかおなかが減りやすくなりました。マイナス点を言えば、割れ防止の中綿が邪魔なくらいです。60粒で2000円前後と格安なため、アルコール飲む方はウコンよりおすすめです。

リポ酸にはS体とR体の2種類があって、通常ものはS体とR体が半々のものになります。体内利用されるのはR体のみです。またS体とR体お互い反目しあうようで利用率50％にはならず、20～30％だと言われています。さらにS体は有害だという研究結果があるので、R体のみを含んだリポ酸を摂取するのがお勧めです。こちらはR体オンリーで有用性は安心です。＃ちなみに今はもっと吸収のいいもの(R+ALA)が出ていますので、そちらをお勧めします。

こちらを飲んで低血糖の症状がでたので、飲むのを中止しました。たまたまかも知れないし原因が他のサプリかもしれないですが。ユーチューブで良いと見たので残念です。
