 Use with caution! Mar 20, 2007
By Christine

My daughter sprinkles 1/3 of a capsule in orange juice every morning and finds that it keeps her blood sugar stable all day.

However ... be warned about taking this with thyroid medication ... read below:

Please be advised that within an hour of taking his first R-Alpha Lipoic Acid 50 mg capsule, my husband's heart rate suddenly doubled. Further study revealed that the upper and lower chambers of his heart were beating independently. After much research, we read a study that mentioned in a footnote an adverse reaction to this supplement in mice who were taking Levoxyl. My husband had taken his usual 75mg of Levoxyl earlier that morning.

 Concentrated Goodness Aug 03, 2007
By Gene Barnes
I'm going to save the 5-star rating for something that really is the cat's meow. This is merely very good so it gets 4 stars.
Since the company who sells this says it's more potent than most of the Alpha Lipoics out there, and since I'm a low-dosage kind of guy, I wound up taking one of these per day (in the morning) vs. the two of the synthetic variety (one in the morning, one in the evening, per the "Packer Plan" found in "The Antioxident Miracle"). It has worked out well; there is no difference to my health from taking fewer milligrams, and I feel I'm doing right by taking antioxidents such as this.
The price is competitive.
I'm re-ordering now and thought I'd take a second to share that simple observation. But as ever, your mileage may vary.
