When the burning, zapping and tingling start the moment you lie down, sleep turns into a nightly fight. R-ALA works on the nerve side of it: 600 mg of the form your body makes, in a slow-release capsule, without the next-morning fog of a sleeping pill.
Stabilized R-ALA 600mg – Nerve Support for Burning, Tingling Feet at Night
- Helps quiet the night-time burning and tingling
- Not a sedative: no groggy, zombie mornings
- Pure R-form: only the half of ALA your body makes
- Slow-release capsule, steady support for about 8 hours
- 600 mg daily, the amount studied in the clinical trials
- Clean, vegan and lab tested
Take 3 capsules once daily with a meal— breakfast or lunch is ideal. That's the full 600mg clinical dose of stabilized R-Alpha Lipoic Acid your nerves need, delivered the way German doctors have prescribed it for decades.
Our slow-release capsule is designed to absorb well even when taken with food, so you don't have to worry about timing it perfectly — and it's gentle on the stomach. Take it daily without skipping. The trials that backed this formula measured results over weeks and months of consistent use, not days. Stay with it.
R-ALA isn’t exclusive to people with diabetes. It supports the body’s antioxidant defenses and healthy nerve function, so it may also be relevant for neuropathy caused by other factors.
However, most clinical research has focused on diabetic peripheral neuropathy, while evidence for other types of neuropathy is still limited and mixed.
R-ALA is generally well tolerated, and most people take it without any issues. Unlike standard capsules that release the entire dose at once, our slow-release granules deliver R-ALA gradually. This is designed to be gentler on the stomach and help minimize occasional digestive discomfort. Individual tolerance can still vary.
Because R-ALA may lower blood sugar, speak with your healthcare provider if you take blood-sugar-lowering medication.
Some standard ALA supplements may cause occasional stomach burning or heartburn because the full dose is released at once.
Our capsules use slow-release granules, which gradually release the R-ALA instead of dumping the entire dose into your stomach at once.
This is designed to be gentler on the stomach and minimize digestive discomfort. Most people tolerate R-ALA well, although individual responses can vary.
Each capsule contains 200mg of stabilized R-Alpha Lipoic Acid in its pure R-form — the biologically active form your nerve cells actually recognize. Delivered in a slow-release capsule for support over 8 hours. No fillers. No proprietary blends. No racemic S-form that blocks the active ingredient from doing its job. What you see on the label is exactly what is in the capsule at the exact dose the clinical trials used.
R-ALA is not an instant pain reliever—it works best when taken consistently.
In clinical studies of oral alpha-lipoic acid for diabetic neuropathy, improvements were assessed after approximately 3–5 weeks.
Some people may notice changes sooner, while others may require longer, and results vary from person to person.

What Real Customers Are Saying
What To Expect – Your Path Back To Full Nights
Most solutions promise overnight results. We will tell you the truth instead.
Building your stores
R-ALA starts building up in your nerve cells and working against the oxidative stress that has been wearing them down. Most nights will still feel the same, and that is normal. Keep your routine for now, fan and cream included. You are laying the groundwork.
The nights start getting quieter
This is when people most often notice the first change. The burning that flared the moment you lay down starts to ease, and the 3 AM wake-ups come less often. In the clinical trials, symptom scores were measured at 3 to 5 weeks.
Fewer nights on the couch
Feet go back under the covers. Fewer trips to the cold bathroom floor, fewer nights in the recliner, more mornings where you wake up rested instead of foggy. Keep taking it every day. Steady use is what counts.
The night you forget to dread bedtime
In the 4-year NATHAN 1 trial, people taking 600 mg of ALA a day had leg nerve scores that held up better than on placebo. The goal is not one good night. It is keeping the quiet nights you have won.
The Only Choice That Actually Works
Sleeping pills and nerve pills can buy you a night, then charge you for it in the morning: fog, weight gain, doses that keep creeping up. Root of Nature supports the nerves behind the burning, so you are not trading your mornings for your nights.

Most "Alpha Lipoic Acid" sold in America, including the top sellers at GNC, Walmart and Amazon, is the cheap racemic form: a 50/50 mix of the natural R-form your body makes and a synthetic S-form it doesn't. That's the version most people try, feel little from, and write off as "ALA doesn't work."
Root of Nature is pure, stabilized R-ALA at 600 mg a day, the same daily amount the major clinical trials used, in a slow-release capsule whose granules let the dose out gradually instead of all at once. That is what makes it gentle on the stomach, where standard ALA often causes heartburn and nausea.
Fair question, and one we'd be asking too. Don't take our word for it. Look at the research on alpha lipoic acid itself.
In the SYDNEY 2 trial (2006), people with diabetic nerve damage took 600 mg of ALA by mouth once a day. After 5 weeks their symptom score (burning, pain, tingling, numbness) had dropped by 51%, versus 32% on placebo. In NATHAN 1, a 4-year trial with 460 patients, leg nerve scores held up better on 600 mg a day than on placebo. In Germany, ALA has been a licensed pharmacy medicine for diabetic nerve symptoms for decades.
Those trials used standard ALA, and half of standard ALA is a mirror-image form your body doesn't make. Root of Nature gives you the same 600 mg, as only the R-form, in a slow-release capsule. We didn't run those studies. We simply built the formula around them.
We want to be straight with you, because you've probably been burned by promises before. The published clinical trials measured meaningful improvement at around 3 to 5 weeks of daily use.
What we hear most is that the first hour after lying down, usually the worst one, calms down first. Some people notice it sooner, others take longer, especially if the nights have been bad for years.
Give it at least 60 days at the full 600 mg dose before you decide. That's what our 60-day guarantee is for.
R-ALA is a nutrient, not a sedative, and people commonly take it alongside their other medicines. It won't knock you out and it won't leave you with a hangover.
Please don't change or stop any prescription on your own. If you want to cut back on a nerve pill or sleeping pill, do it together with your doctor, because stopping some of them suddenly brings the nights back hard. Because R-ALA may lower blood sugar, also tell your doctor if you take blood-sugar medication.
No need. Take your 3 capsules once a day with a meal, breakfast or lunch is ideal. R-ALA isn't a sleep aid that has to be timed to the night. It works by building up in your nerves with steady daily use, and the slow-release capsule keeps supplying it for about 8 hours.
