Do the 'other ingredients' now list magnesium stearate? There is no magnesium stearate listed in the photo.

Could someone please explain what is junky about the magnesium salt of a natural occurring fatty acid? Do you refuse to eat chocolate because its fats are at least 25% stearic acid? What would you prefer they use as a flow control agent? Cadmium oleate?

Does this contain magnesium stearate? I this made and sourced in the US?

Just purchased on 1/26/17 and yes now contains Stearic acid. Very upsetting cause before ingredients were: veggie capsule, rice flour and Leucine. I will not be buying anymore Lifeextension products. The whole point in taking a supplement is to get healthier not ingest more poisonous fillers. Im very upset about this change in ingredients.

Is this r-lipoic acid or is it r-alpha lipoic acid?

Alpha-lipoic acid supplements typically consist of an "R" and "S" form in a 50/50 ratio. The "S" form is not very active in the body and the "R" form is the highly active form that is responsible for the antioxidant effect.

Is this r-lipoic acid or is it r-alpha lipoic acid?

It doesn't say on the bottle, but I have assumed it was r-alpha lipoic acid. I checked to see what the difference was between the two (online) and it says that alpha lipoic acid exists in two forms S-alpha and R-alpha lipoic acid. The S form is not natural, but the R form is. That is all I know.
