## Description

LEF Super R-Lipoic Acid 240 mg - 90 Vegetarian Capsules Super R-Lipoic Acid is a cellular energy health support supplement. Lipoic acid is a powerful antioxidant, and is also known as the universal antioxidant. Lipoic acid helps encourage mitochondrial function—which in turn supports cellular energy production. There are two forms of lipoic acid: “R” and “S.” The “R” form (in this formula) is more biologically active. This lipoic acid supplement provides a powerful 240 mg dose of the “active” form of alpha lipoic acid (R-lipoic acid) in each vegetarian capsule. Super R-Lipoic Acid Benefits: ✔ Provides the active form of alpha lipoic acid ✔ Helps protect against oxidative stress ✔ 240 mg of R lipoic acid in each vegetarian capsule* Get started today. Add to your cart because you deserve the best supplements. Why Choose Life Extension? ✔ Around for 40 years ✔ Manufactured in the USA✔ Non-GMO ✔ Gluten-free

Review: Excellent - I have taken this for a few years now. This is the best form of alpha lipoic acid. If it doesn't have the R, it's synthetic and it's junk. This bottle lasts me two months usually. I take one every morning on an empty stomach with water, about 15 minutes before I have coffee. I initially started taking this for fibromyalgia-like pains in my arms and shoulders. This supplement, along with strengthening my back, has eliminated my pain. I believe this supplement is very effective for nerve and muscle pain. I've read a book about lipoic acid and the benefits are massive. It's an anti oxidant that's natural and as you age, your body makes less of it. This is a supplement that actually works. I have my husband taking it now too. Pills aren't too big and are easy to swallow with water. Container is easy to open. I think the company, life extension, makes quality supplements.
Review: Recommended for energy & mitochondrial support — noticeable difference - This was recommended to me specifically for cellular energy, mitochondrial support, and heart health, especially during times of fatigue and stress. Ubiquinol is the active, more absorbable form of CoQ10, which is why this one made sense for me. Instead of feeling like a stimulant, it supports energy at a deeper level — I feel more steady, less depleted, and better overall throughout the day. What I appreciate most is how gentle it is. No jitters, no upset stomach, no weird side effects. Just a subtle but noticeable improvement in baseline energy and resilience. If you’ve tried CoQ10 before and didn’t feel much, or if you’re dealing with low energy, stress, or want to support heart and cellular health as you get older, ubiquinol is worth considering — and this has been a solid, well-tolerated option for me.

*by S***. on December 12, 2025*

I've been taking this for a good while because it's good for so many things, from eye health to bone density to liver health, and at 73 I'm still going strong- I'll be reordering!
