K-RALA-10™

A high bio-availability, stable, liquid form of R-Lipoic Acid

GeroNova's high bio-availability, stable 10% liquid form of R-Lipoic Acid. K-RALA-10™ reaches high plasma levels soon after ingestion.

K-RALA-10™ solution contains R-lipoic acid (in the form of Potassium-R-Lipoate), potassium bicarbonate, purified water and is preserved with USP vegetable glycerin.

Increased Stability

No need for refrigeration, polymer-free and stable for at least 3 years at room temperature. Solid, unstabilized R-Lipoic Acid is prone to polymerize upon exposure to heat, light and moisture within 6 months.

Increased Solubility

Easily dissolved in water, whereas unstabilized lipoic acid is poorly soluble.

Reduced Solvent Residues

Due to the low melting point of the lipoic acid crystalline structure, there is a tendency for 'raw' R-lipoic acid to hold on to high amounts of cyclohexane, ethyl acetate or toluene. The additional processing necessary to make all K-RALA™ products removes the residual solvents.

Suggested Use

One dropper full (~20 drops) delivers the equivalent of 100 mg R-Lipoic Acid and 18-20 mg potassium. Recommended dose as a nutritional supplement is 1-4 full droppers per day together with Carnitine-PLUS, liquid or capsules.

Add to water, and drink immediately. Avoid contact with eyes, and if using topically for skin, dilute with 8-10 x water.

GeroNova products contain only the natural R-Lipoic Acid form of Alpha-Lipoic Acid. Most ALA products today are a mixture of R-Lipoic Acid and the synthetic S-Lipoic Acid, a substance that is a by-product of chemical synthesis and is not found in nature. Research indicates RLA is responsible for most of the beneficial effects attributed to ALA and is a normal and essential component of cellular metabolism. GeroNova R-Lipoic Acid is formulated using a unique stabilization process that ensures maximum stability and bioavailability.
