It also plays a role in regulating glucose metabolism. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe R-form is the active form of the compound, meaning it can be absorbed and utilised by the body. It is produced by the body itself. The R-form is also known as the ‘reduced’ form of alpha-lipoic acid and is considered the most beneficial and purest form in terms of its antioxidant properties.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDoes the body produce sufficient amounts of this nutrient itself?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe answer is yes and no. Whilst the body does produce some ALA, it often does not produce enough to meet its own needs. If the body is healthy and functioning properly, it usually produces sufficient amounts of ALA to meet its needs. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHowever, age, diet and other factors can influence the production of R-alpha-lipoic acid. As we get older, for example, our body’s ability to produce ALA decreases. For this reason, many people take suitable supplements to support the body’s own production. Furthermore, some people have a higher requirement than others due to their genes or other factors. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eR-alpha-lipoic acid in food\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis nutrient is also found in certain foods, which are particularly important for meeting one’s ALA requirements naturally.
