A REASONABLE DOSE FOR THIS VERY POTENT ANTI-OXIDANT, September 26, 2006
FIRST THOUGHTS: SUBTLE - SAFE . . . . . . ------ BUT POTENT ANTI-OXIDANT
IN A NUTSHELL: RARE MEDICINAL PRODUCT THAT HAS NOTHING GOING AGAINST ITS USE
Most products that have a potent effect on the human body also cause negative externalities that physicians call, SIDE-EFFECTS. This Alpha Lipoic Acid in 100 Mg capsules, carries with it many benefits, yet few if any risks, side-effects, harmful interactions or toxicity.
WHAT IT IS!
Alpha lipoic acid is a vitamin-like antioxidant. It is called a "universal antioxidant" because it is both fat and water soluble. Alpha Lipoic Acid can be made within the human body and is found in a few foods, such as, yeast and liver.
Perhaps of even more importance, is Alpha Lipoic Acid's ability to regenerate other antioxidants back to their active states. Among these, are Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Co-enzyme Q10 and Glutathione, to name a few.
I generally take several 300 mg. capsules per day, 1, each time I take L-Carnitine, and with other anti-oxidants.
WHAT'S THIS STUFF GOOD FOR?
Like most anti-oxidants, Alpha Lipoic Acid requires a certain leap of faith to include it in your regimen and budget. Though the medical data can only prove direct benefits for ailments such as; Diabetes, Glaucoma and Hepatitis, with Diabetic Neuropathy being the most significantly affected ailment, there are countless health benefits to adding such a safe and natural anti-oxidant that both recycles other anti-oxidants and is both fat and water soluble.

Assuming that you are sold on ALA, June 20, 2009
Assuming that you are sold on Alpha Lipoic Acid as a powerful anti-oxidant, you should note that this brand is of good quality. I keep hearing things about the superior purity and consistency of the high-end product lines (my friend used to sell Herbalife.) However, I tried the GNC brand (for $25+ a bottle) and there is no difference. I bought in quantity and saved even more on shipping.
