High Dose R-Lipoic Acid (60 VCaps)
Lipoic acid is known as the “captain of the antioxidants” due to its ability to recycle and recharge other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. Numerous studies have shown that lipoic acid can help support the body to use glucose effectively and protect against free radical damage. It is a powerful partner for glutathione; the most abundant antioxidant produced in the body.
AOR Advantage
In 1999, AOR was the first company in the world to offer pure R- Lipoic Acid based on the most current literature. AOR’s pure R-Lipoic acid delivers the biologically active “R” form of this valuable antioxidant without the inhibitory effects of the S (-) form. Regular doses of lipoic acid are recommended for maintaining overall general health while high doses of R-Lipoic Acid are recommended for the management and support of glucose metabolism.
High Dose R-Lipoic Acid provides a convenient and more economical dosage in a reduced capsule count for those that need to take a higher dosage at one time for therapeutic treatment and management of glucose such as individuals experiencing nerve pain (neuropathy).

Herbs are powerful. They’ve been used for centuries to nourish, support, and restore the body—but just like any tool for wellness, they should be approached with knowledge, respect, and intention. Before using any herb that’s new to you, we highly encourage you to do your research, ask questions, and—most importantly—consult a certified healthcare practitioner, whether that’s a clinical herbalist, naturopath, or your trusted family doctor. Everyone’s body is different, and what works incredibly for one person may not be the right fit for another.
While we’re passionate about sharing the wisdom of herbal medicine, not all the information on our website has been reviewed by Health Canada or the FDA—which means it’s up to you to take an active role in your health. Learn, explore, and empower yourself. Herbal medicine is about cultivating a relationship with plants, understanding their effects, and using them with reverence, respect, and intention.
Your health is your own, and it is up to you to ensure that you are using plant medicine safely, effectively and knowledgeably. We’re here to support you as you step into that power by supplying high-quality, handcrafted and sustainably sourced herbs and plants.
