R-LIPOINN®
R- alpha-lipoic acid without synthetic forms of S enantiomer
R-LIPOINN® is the only product in our country which contains Sodium R-lipoate which is metabolized in the body in R-alpha-lipoic acid – without synthetic S form which is found in all alpha-lipoic acid based products sold in our market.
Why R-LIPOINN®?
R-LIPOINN® significantly increases the antioxidative activity of your cells and mitochondria preventing thus their damage and deterioration. This efficiently reduces the increase of oxidative stress related to aging.
R-LIPOINN® maintains healthy level of other antioxidants such as coenzyme Q10, vitamin C, vitamin E and glutathione.
R-LIPOINN® improves memory, reduces brain damages and protects the brain from neurodegenerative changes related to aging. R-alpha lipoic acid is synthetized in the body and it is safely metabolized.
Regulates the oxidative stress especially in:
Diabetes
Diabetic polyneuropathy
Obesity
Aging
As the strong antioxidant, it regenerates also other antioxidants:
Glutathione
Vitamin C
Vitamin E
Coenzyme Q10
Excellent tolerability of R-LIPOINN® capsules thanks to DRcaps™ – without gastric problems
DRcaps™ capsules are made with innovatively formulated hypromellose (HPMC) which is resistant to stomach acid, it is very slowly decomposed and enables intactness of the capsule content during its passing through the stomach.
Pharmacokinetics
Alpha-lipoic acid is an important cofactor in metabolism of energy of different organisms. Only a small amount is needed for this. Also, when it is present in sufficient quantities, it plays a role of an antioxidant. It is synthetized in the body, but it is also taken in by food. Small quantities of alpha-lipoic acid are found almost in all foodstuffs, mostly in entrails, meat, potato, beet and carrot.
Considering the fact that it contains one asymmetric carbon atom in its molecule, there are two possible stereoisomers of the alpha-lipoic acid form. Naturally biologically active R stereoisomer, while racemate is the product obtained by synthesis, with about 50% of biological activity of natural product because S stereoisomer is biologically inactive.
R-LIPOINN® contains only R form of alpha-lipoic acid, which is active, without S form which is inactive, and thus the bioavailability and therapeutic effect of R-LIPOINN® is 2.5 times higher, which has been proven by numerous clinical studies.
R-alpha lipoic acid – Eutomer of alpha lipoic acid – Biologically more preferred stereoisomer
Pharmacokinetic profile of R-alpha lipoic acid in the form of R-Lipoate – proven 2.5 times higher bioavailability than that of racemate.
How is it used?
1 to 2 capsules a day, it is best to take the product half an hour before the meal. Avoid milk and dairy products as well as products containing Fe, Ca and Mg 2 hours before and after using R-LIPOINN® capsules.
