Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) isn't your typical antioxidant. Unlike water-soluble vitamin C or fat-soluble vitamin E, ALA is both water- and fat-soluble, making it one of the most versatile antioxidant compounds in the body. But that's not all. ALA plays a crucial role in cellular energy production.

Incorporating The Vitamin Shoppe® brand Alpha Lipoic Acid 600mg vegetable capsules into your daily routine can support nutrient metabolism and cellular health.

Directions

Take one (1) vegetable capsule daily, preferably with a meal.

Warning

Does this product contain S-lipoic acid or R-lipoic acid?

Best Answer:  The label on the bottle does not specify either one.

is this r acid ?

Best Answer:  R-Lipoic Acid is a different form of Alpha Lipoic Acid. I found this information through Google.

“R” Lipoic Acid is Biologically Active

Alpha-lipoic acid, the universal antioxidant, consists of two different forms (isomers) — R and S — that have vastly different properties. The “R” form is the biologically active component (native to the body) that is responsible for lipoic acid’s phenomenal antioxidant effect. The “S” form is produced from chemical manufacture and is not very biologically active. Alpha-lipoic acid supplements typically consist of the “R” and “S” form in a 50/50 ratio. That means a 100 mg alpha-lipoic acid supplement is providing 50 mg of the biologically active “R” form.

The human body normally produces and uses the “R” form of lipoic acid. This active form, R-lipoic acid, significantly supports healthy inflammatory response, is a potent free radical scavenger, and has been shown to be more potent than the combined “R” and “S” forms that ordinarily comprise alpha-lipoic acid supplements.1-11

I've heard there are 2 types of Alpha-Lipoic Acid. Stabilized which does not need refrigeration and non-stabilized, which should be refrigerated for freshness. Is this brand of the product stabilized Alpha-Lipoic Acid?

Best Answer:  This product that I have used for years now is the Stabilized which needs no refrigeration.

Do you take the alpha lipoic acid on an empty stomach ?

Best Answer:  I usually take all of my supplements together at about the same time as I eat (breakfast or dinner) as a lot of them are more easily absorbed if taken with food/some type of oil. However, I've taken alpha lipoic on an empty stomach many times and it's never bothered me. The label says you can take it with or without food.

What is a normal daily dosage?

Best Answer:  The usual recommended dosage is 600 mg per day (recently recommended by Dr. Perlmutter). Dr. Perricone recommend that the dose be divided 300 mg in the morning and 300 mg in the evening.

is this product stabilized?

Best Answer:  I take 3 a day, some day I cheat and take 1 or 2 more, it helps with the stinging pain from Neuropathy in my legs and I do not have diabetes.

Is this made in USA?

Best Answer:  All Vitamin Shoppe brand products are manufactured in the U.S - Theresa K. (VS)

What form of ALA is this? Is this the R the S or the RS? Instead of customers answering can we get answers from The Vitamin Shoppe experts? I’ve read  that the vitamin shoppe brand has both the RS meaning mixed with synthetic, which inhibits the absorption of the R ALA. why would TVS sell this which can be harmful or if of no use to our bodies? I would like the answer from the staff if possible pleas

Best Answer:  This supplement contains a mixture of R and S, meaning that it contains both of them. Those letters represent the chemical structure of the alpha lipoic acid.

Is this a “time release” form?

Best Answer:  This item is not formulated as a time release supplement.

Is this R-alpha-lipoic acid?

Best Answer:  This contains both R and S forms for Alpha Lipoic Acid.
