Natural R-alpha lipoic acid (R-ALA) is a powerful antioxidant that helps the body metabolize sugar. R-ALA is much more bioavailable than commonly sold synthetic alpha lipoic acid.
Suggested Use, dosage, how much to take
As a dietary supplement, take one capsule in the morning on an empty stomach or with breakfast as recommended by your health care provider. We suggest taking it no more than 3 or 4 times a week.

Refrigeration, storage
Q. I recently bought R lipoic 50 mg, does it need to be refrigerated?
A. No, but if you don't plan to finish the bottle in less than a year, then it may be a good idea to keep it in the refrigerator.
Combining with antioxidant supplements
Q. Can it be combined daily with other antioxidants such as carnosine, acetylcysteine, or acetyl-L-carnitine?
A. Yes, but only if a small portion of a capsule of each is used. Another option is to alternate their use, each day taking a different one.
Side effects, adverse reactions
High doses can cause excessive stimulation, rapid heart beat, perhaps irregular heart beat or palpitations, being very alert at night and insomnia.
