The burning, tingling, and sensitivity you feel is your nerves under oxidative stress and poor blood flow. R-Alpha Lipoic Acid addresses this at the cellular level through four key mechanisms.
1. Powerful Antioxidant Action
R-ALA neutralises free radicals that damage nerve fibres. It also converts to DHLA inside the body, which regenerates Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Glutathione — amplifying your entire antioxidant network. No other single antioxidant covers as much ground.
2. Improved Nerve Blood Flow
Poor circulation is a major driver of nerve degradation. R-ALA enhances nitric oxide availability, dilating small blood vessels and restoring oxygen and nutrient delivery to peripheral nerves.
3. Anti-Inflammatory Effects
R-ALA suppresses the NF-κB inflammatory pathway and reduces cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β) that cause nerve hyper-excitability and pain. Less inflammation means calmer, less reactive nerves.
4. Nerve Repair and Regeneration
R-ALA upregulates Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) and BDNF — proteins critical for nerve survival and repair. It also protects the myelin sheath, which is essential for fast, efficient nerve signalling.
600mg of pure R-form ALA per serving, paired with Organic Coconut Oil for optimal absorption. This is why it works when other supplements do not.
