If you are experiencing nerve pain or numbness, or having difficulty maintaining your blood glucose level, R-ALA may help with energy and glucose production.
A study conducted on 600 mg of Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) found a 51% decrease in symptoms among subjects with diabetic peripheral neuropathy after 5 weeks, compared to 32% in the placebo group. [1]
It is worth mentioning that the active R-type of ALA could achieve significantly higher plasma levels compared to S-ALA, as shown by research studies, which measured 40-50% more for R-ALA compared to S-ALA. [2]
Miduty® R-ALA offers 600 mg of 99% Bioactive R-Alpha-Lipoic Acid. It helps boost energy production in the cells, maintain healthy glucose metabolism, and provides antioxidant activity and benefits for nerves as well. Its antioxidant activity works towards protecting the body from oxidative stress and maintaining overall metabolic health.
This is not just another supplement for Alpha-Lipoic Acid.
Conventional Alpha-Lipoic Acid supplements come with a 50:50 combination of R-ALA and S-ALA. R-ALA is the naturally occurring form of alpha-lipoic acid and is what works in the body as a mitochondrial cofactor.
Miduty® R-ALA capsules offer 600 mg of 99% Bioactive R-Alpha-Lipoic Acid, offering a very potent form of the naturally occurring R-isomer. The supplement works to enhance energy production in cells, metabolism of glucose, antioxidant defense, and nerve function.
Alpha-lipoic acid is an important player in mitochondrial metabolic processes, working to aid in enzyme complexes that help convert carbohydrates and other fuel sources into cellular energy. This R-ALA supplement is also vital for maintaining the body's antioxidant function and promoting healthy cellular functioning. Its importance regarding the nervous system cannot be overlooked.
In the SYDNEY 2 study, supplementation of 600 mg of ALA per day showed a 51% decrease in neuropathy symptom scores in just five weeks, while the placebo group had 32%.
Regarding metabolic health, it appears that ALA may assist in glucose and insulin sensitivity regulation. In clinical studies, there were improvements in fasting glucose levels, insulin sensitivity, and HbA1c in people who suffer from metabolic disorders.
Alpha-lipoic acid has also been studied for its role in glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity, with clinical research exploring its effects on markers such as fasting glucose, insulin sensitivity, and HbA1c.
Miduty® R-ALA 600 mg is designed around four key areas of support:
Cellular Energy • Glucose Metabolism • Antioxidant Defense • Nerve Health
With 600 mg of 99% Bioactive R-ALA per serving, it delivers a high-strength, focused approach to daily cellular and metabolic support.
R-ALA is the naturally occurring isomer of alpha-lipoic acid and participates as a cofactor in key mitochondrial enzyme complexes involved in energy production.
Unlike ingredients positioned only for antioxidant support, R-ALA sits at the intersection of mitochondrial energy metabolism, glucose metabolism and nerve function—making it a uniquely multi-pathway molecule.
R-ALA can be converted to dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA), creating a redox pair that participates in the body's antioxidant network. This gives R-ALA a role beyond simply supplying antioxidant activity—it supports the body's antioxidant recycling system.
R-ALA and its reduced form, DHLA, participate in antioxidant regeneration pathways. This can help support the recycling of key antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E and glutathione, helping maintain the body's broader antioxidant defense system. It doesn’t just act as an antioxidant — it helps keep the antioxidant network working.
Miduty® R-ALA provides 600 mg of R-Alpha-Lipoic Acid per capsule, matching the dosage used in several clinical studies investigating Alpha-Lipoic Acid, including research on neuropathic symptoms. This makes the formula precisely aligned with a well-researched daily dose.
Each capsule contains 99% pure R-Alpha-Lipoic Acid, the naturally occurring isomer of Alpha-Lipoic Acid. The high-purity specification provides a concentrated source of R-ALA in every serving.
Unlike conventional Alpha-Lipoic Acid, which typically contains a 50:50 mixture of R-ALA and S-ALA, Miduty® uses R-ALA specifically, without the S-isomer. This gives you a single-isomer R-ALA formulation rather than a racemic ALA blend.
The formula is intentionally focused on 600 mg of 99% pure R-ALA, without additional ALA blends or unnecessary active ingredients. Every capsule delivers a straightforward, high-strength R-ALA formula with a clearly defined active ingredient.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid has two types, and those are R-ALA and S-ALA. R-ALA is the one that occurs naturally in our body, and on the other hand, S-ALA is the other type of Alpha-Lipoic Acid present in regular Alpha-Lipoic Acid preparations. Miduty® R-ALA uses 99% pure Bioactive R-ALA. One ingredient. 600 mg of concentrated cellular support.

Study Year 2025
A recent meta-analysis found that ALA supplementation was associated with an average 5.28 mg/dL reduction in fasting blood glucose and a 0.40 percentage-point
Study Year 2022
A dose-response meta-analysis of 16 trials involving 1,035 participants found that ALA supplementation was associated with improvements in HbA1c, fasting glucose, CRP, triglycerides, and body weight.
Study Year 2019
A systematic review and meta-analysis of 19 clinical trials found that ALA supplementation was associated with improvements in markers including fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α, although results varied across studies.
Study Year 2018
This meta-analysis included 24 randomized controlled trials and found that ALA supplementation was associated with improvements in fasting glucose, insulin, HOMA-IR, and HbA1c among people with metabolic conditions.
Study Year 2023
This 5-week clinical trial included 181 people with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The 600 mg ALA group showed a 51% reduction in total symptom scores, compared with 32% with placebo, supporting ALA's role in nerve health.
Miduty® gives you R-ALA the form of Alpha-Lipoic Acid your body naturally produces and uses, not the synthetic S-form it often gets mixed with. ALA is an antioxidant, and it also plays into cellular energy production, glucose metabolism, and nerve function.
Miduty® R-ALA benefits include antioxidant support, help with blood sugar metabolism and insulin sensitivity, cellular energy support, and normal nerve function support.
Most ALA supplements are a 50/50 blend of the R- and S-forms. Only R-ALA is the one your body actually recognizes and uses for antioxidant and metabolic work — the S-form is mostly along for the ride. Pure R-ALA means you're not paying for the inactive half.
Yes, it can be taken daily. Follow the label dosing. Antioxidant supplements such as ALA typically function more effectively when taken regularly on a daily basis.
Yes, it is safe for long term use. However, if you're on blood sugar medication or have an existing condition, talk to a doctor before using it long-term.
