Dietary Supplement Science-Based Nutrition Featuring BioEnhanced Na-RALA 2 Helps Recycle the Antioxidant Vitamins C E* 1 Helps Defend Against Free Radicals* 6 Maintains a Healthy Blood Sugar Level as Part of the Diet* 5 Vegan 4 Non-GMO Gluten Free Best Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid contains BioEnhanced Na-RALA, the sodium salt of R-Lipoic acid. Unlike pure RLA, BioEnhanced Na-RALA is a stabilized form of RLA that won t degrade at high temperatures, is more bioavailable than regular RLA and has no solvent residues. Lipoic acid plays an important role in glucose metabolism and energy production. Because it is soluble in both water and fat, LA is known as the universal antioxidant. LA occurs in 2 forms, designated as R and S. Studies suggest that RLA, the natural form, is more biologically active than the S form. Note: The RLA in this product is stabilized with Na. Howe

Supports the bodys defense against free radicals. Recycles antioxidant nutrients such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E. An ideal antioxidant would have the ability to quench a wide variety of free radicals, to support the functioning of other antioxidants, to bind or chelate metal ions that can generate free radicals, to function in watery and fatty environments, and to be present in tissues, cells, and extracellular spaces. Having exceeded these criteria, Lipoic Acid was termed the universal antioxidant. As a team, LA and DHLA come close to the ideal, for the following reasons: 1) LA is easily absorbed when consumed orally. 2) LA is readily converted to DHLA in various tissues. 3) As a pair, LA and DHLA neutralize superoxide, hydroxyl, peroxyl, and hypochlorus radicals. 4) LA and DHLA form stable complexes with metal ions such as iron, manganese, copper and zinc ions. 5) LA and DHLA scavenge free radicals in both fatty and watery environments. 6) DHLA recycles other important antioxidants. Within the cell, antioxidants work as a team to keep free radicals from damaging cell structures. In order to neutralize a free radical, an antioxidant such as vitamin C must give up an electron, which means it becomes oxidized. Before it can function as an antioxidant once again, it must be regenerated back to its "reduced" form by gaining an electron to replace the donated electron. For this, it needs the help of other antioxidants. Vitamin C, vitamin E, and glutathione are key antioxidants that can be generated by cycling between their oxidized and reduced forms. This is necessary to maintain the balance between oxidation and its reversethe neutralization of free radicals by antioxidants.
