Description
Lipoic acid is a versatile antioxidant known for its ability to protect the brain and nerve cells from free radicals and heavy metals that promote cognitive and neurodegenerative diseases. 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 balance blood sugar and repair nerves damaged by diabetes. Additionally, this powerful anti-aging nutrient has been shown to mimic some of the effects of caloric restriction, the only proven method of extending health span and lifespan. It does so by protecting the mitochondria against free radical damage. Due to its action on the mitochondria it can revive damaged cells, especially those found in nerves and in the liver. It is an ideal partner for glutathione, the most powerful antioxidant produced in the body.
R-Lipoic acid is a powerful, natural and well-rounded antioxidant with many actions such as repairing nerves, balancing blood sugar, protecting the brain and increasing energy formation in the mitochondria. AOR’s pure R-Lipoic acid delivers the most effective form of this valuable antioxidant without the negative actions of lipoic acid’s 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 of high blood sugar and diabetic neuropathy problems.
- Provides metabolic and neurological support
- The supreme mitochondrial, healthy-aging antioxidant
- AOR was the first in the world to offer 95% pure R-lipoic acid
Frequently Asked Questions
What is AOR (Advanced Orthomolecular Research) and are its supplements safe in Canada?
AOR, short for Advanced Orthomolecular Research, is a Calgary, Alberta-based supplement brand founded in 1991 by Dr. Traj Nibber, PhD. Built on the orthomolecular medicine principles of Nobel laureate Linus Pauling — the right molecule, in the right dose, at the right place and time — AOR products are manufactured in a cGMP-compliant facility in Alberta and all carry Health Canada Natural Product Numbers (NPN). Raw materials are independently tested in ISO-certified laboratories for purity, potency, and safety. Products are commonly recommended by naturopathic doctors and integrative healthcare practitioners across Canada.
What makes AOR different from other supplement brands?
AOR's real distinction is its orthomolecular research model: rather than formulating to meet basic RDAs, AOR targets functional, clinically studied dosing levels — and has a track record of introducing compounds to the Canadian market before they became mainstream, including D-ribose, R-lipoic acid, and strontium citrate. AOR also consistently chooses bioavailable ingredient forms over cheaper alternatives: methylated B vitamins (methylcobalamin, L-5-MTHF) instead of cyanocobalamin; chelated magnesium bisglycinate instead of magnesium oxide. This research-first approach, developed in close collaboration with naturopathic doctors, is what separates AOR from brands that replicate popular formulas at lower cost.
