WHAT IS IT?

Glucorell R is the right handed, biologically active, molecular version of alpha lipoic acid, i.e. R-Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA.) Each capsule contains 100 mg. Inert ingredient is rice powder.

WHAT DOES IT DO?

This version of alpha lipoic acid is the right handed molecule of ALA.  The usual version of ALA as sold in stores is a mixture of the right and left handed versions, called a racemic mixture. All molecules consist of two forms which are mirror images of each other. Nature prefers and manufactures primarily one of the two forms, usually the left handed form in amino acids and in this case, the right handed form.

The significance of this is that R-ALA has all the benefits of ALA while the L-ALA not only doesn't, it actually works against the active form. Taking the racemic mixture may be useless to detrimental.
