Product Details

R-lipoic acid (R-ALA) is the biologically active, naturally occurring form of alpha-lipoic acid, a powerful antioxidant found in every cell of the body.

It plays a vital role in mitochondrial energy production, helps recycle other antioxidants like vitamins C and E and supports healthy glucose metabolism.

Unlike the synthetic S-form often found in standard alpha-lipoic acid supplements, R-ALA is the only form your body recognises and uses efficiently. Research shows that R-lipoic acid may offer superior benefits for nerve health, blood sugar regulation, and cellular protection.

However, R-lipoic acid is notoriously unstable and poorly absorbed when taken on its own. That’s why lipolife® use the stabilised form developed by GeroNova Research, a global pioneer in R-lipoic acid innovation. By combining this clinically respected raw material with advanced liposomal delivery technology, lipolife® R-Lipoic Acid ensures maximum bioavailability and effectiveness.

Backed by science, R-ALA has demonstrated benefits for:

  • Neuropathy and nerve regeneration
  • Blood sugar control and insulin sensitivity
  • Mitochondrial and liver function
  • Detoxification and antioxidant support
  • Reduction of inflammation and oxidative stress

Thanks to liposomal encapsulation, lipolife® liposomal R-Lipoic Acid protects the delicate compound during digestion and delivers it efficiently into systemic circulation, providing faster, more targeted results for those seeking advanced metabolic and neurological support.

what’s in your bottle?

lipolife® liposomal r-lipoic acid

GeroNova's proprietary stabilisation process converts R-lipoic acid into its sodium salt form (Na RALA), significantly improving its stability and absorption.

A human pharmacokinetic study demonstrated that Bio-Enhanced® R-Lipoic Acid achieved up to 40 times higher peak plasma concentrations compared to unstabilised RLA, indicating superior bioavailability.
