Description

What Is It?
R-lipoic acid and N-acetyl-cysteine provide exceptional antioxidant coverage, and the multitude of health benefits derived from this combination is astounding. Lipoic acid and NAC tend to be very short-lived in the blood. R + NAC SR is specially formulated to ensure greater stability and accessibility to the body than conventional lipoic acid and NAC supplements. It is designed to provide a sustained release of these nutrients over 8 hours, providing continuous resistance to free radical damage and numerous other health benefits.

What Does It Do?
Primary Uses: R-Lipoic acid provides antioxidant protection in the mitochondria and also helps to reduce the damaging effects of age. NAC is a highly efficient form of cysteine. Cysteine is the most important precursor for glutathione (GSH), one of the body's hardest working antioxidants. R-Lipoic acid and glutathione recycle each other and other antioxidants, keeping them fighting off free-radicals longer.
Secondary Uses: Both R-lipoic acid and NAC play roles in cardiovascular health, neurological protection, heavy metal chelation, blood sugar management, liver protection and more.

Who Should Take It?
R + NAC SR is the perfect duo for those looking for continual antioxidant protection and anti-aging benefits around the clock.
