No, Thorne's R-Lipoic Acid is not vegan. In the Other Ingredients section of the product label, leucine is listed. Our leucine ingredient is derived from duck feathers. The duck feathers are not plucked from live ducks, but are collected as the feathers fall out naturally. There are no other animal-derived ingredients in Thorne's R-Lipoic Acid.

Maybe

After a Trimalleolar ankle fracture and two surgeries, I had no feeling on the top part of my foot. It has been over a year. I have been taking it for almost the entire time. The feeling is slowly returning. Is it because of this? Hard to say. Maybe. Probably didn’t hurt. Somewhat expensive.
