the misguided person that wrote that article apparently knows very little about either biochemistry or the compound in question.
R-dhla is not the preferred form. It may be adequate for use in some cellular models. However it is highly unstable and particularly ill suited for oral consumption. Not to mention that it in fact yields less effect than R-lipoic. It is no accident that all the recent studies use solely R+ lipoic.
as a note the chinese have been trying to push this material for about 2 years, no thanks.
