Ingredients explained
R-lipoic acid (sodium salt)
R-lipoic acid functions as a redox cofactor that can recycle antioxidants and support mitochondrial enzyme activity involved in energy metabolism.
Caution: May lower blood sugar in some people; monitor how you feel if you have variable glucose levels or use glucose-lowering products.
Biotin
Biotin acts as a coenzyme for carboxylases that support carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism.
Caution: High-dose biotin can interfere with certain lab tests; consider pausing before testing if advised by a professional.
Sodium (from R-lipoic acid sodium salt)
Sodium helps maintain fluid balance and nerve signalling as an essential electrolyte.
Caution: Contributes a small amount of daily sodium; those limiting sodium intake may wish to account for it.
How they work together
R-lipoic acid supports mitochondrial energy enzymes and antioxidant recycling, while biotin supports carboxylase enzymes for macronutrient metabolism; together they cover complementary steps in cellular energy processes. The sodium salt form helps stabilise R-lipoic acid and contributes a small electrolyte amount.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Consult a doctor if pregnant, breastfeeding, have a medical condition, or are taking any medication.
Who should be cautious: People on medications, those with blood sugar concerns, low blood pressure, or thyroid issues may wish to discuss use with a healthcare provider. Biotin may affect certain lab tests; consider informing your clinician before testing. If combining with medications that may interact, it is recommended to consult a healthcare provider first.
Storage: Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place.

- Gluten Free
- GMP Manufacturing
- Quality Assured
- Independent Testing
AOR's R-Lipoic Acid provides the natural 'R' form of this vital antioxidant produced in the body for the maintenance of good health and helps the body metabolise carbohydrates, unlike supplements which also contain equal amounts of the synthetic, inactive 'S' form. The natural 'R' form is more potent than the S-form, and that in some cases the S-form interferes with R-lipoic acids actions in the body.
