SAN's Stabilized Na-R-ALA
contains the worlds first form of Na-R-ALA, the sodium salt of R-Lipoic Acid
(RLA). Unlike ordinary R-ALA, SAN's Na-R-ALA is a stabilized form of R-ALA
that won't polymerize (degrade) at high temperatures. Na-R-ALA is fully
water soluble and hence completely absorbed by the intestinal tract.
New Scientific Medical Research demonstrated that the powerful antioxidant
effects of the 'R' isomer of Lipoic Acid are far more valuable than its
synthetic cousin ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid R/S). Additionally, SAN's sodium
salt of R-ALA is more bioavailable and stable than Potassium R-ALA, R-ALA-
plus it readily crosses over to cells- which in turn guard the mitochondria
(the cells powerhouse factory) from radical damage. The Na-R-ALA
manufacturing process is extremely difficult, but fortunately SAN was able
to secure a material with a purity in excess of 85%.
Each serving of Na-R-ALA contains 117mg (85% Pure Biosolv Enhance NA-R-ALA)
of this active form which provides over 350% more biological value than
ordinary alpha lipoic acid (ALA).
San has changed the formula of this product. The description on this site is not accurate. It is no longer 86% pure, but it is now only 80% pure. (In fact the new blue, white and red label says "80% purity" right on the front.) The ingredients on the back say:
R-lipoic Acid 100mg
from 125 mg of Biosolv Enhanced Sodium R-Lipoic Acid
(the old formula was "from 117 mg of Biosolv Enhanced Sodium R-Lipoic Acid)
The bottle and pills are both a bit bigger than before.
It may be a small difference, but if I order something I expect to receive the product that was displayed/advertised.
