it's normal until your body gets used to it:D

that does not make sense. If ketones are there in your urine it means that they are being created right? So you're saying just ALA alone in a solution of water or something will make a keto stick show a reading for ketones?

you have it on base, doh!

Re: Yea you're right, ALA doesnt create a false positive, either ketones are in the urine or they're not. Fat does it, ala does, r-ala does it, exercise does it..etc etc.

eating a big meal of all fat does too, whats the point?

Sleep Cycles (get 8 hours and rise with the sun), sex, being in a good mood.

I have not experienced anyone who had those intense cravings after a couple weeks. In fact, ketosis probably kills the desire to eat sweets.

You know, time released ala has been working really great for me, I have tried Jarrow's brand over the last couple weeks. It aint cheap, but it's kept me in ketosis!

show me a study directly comparing Rala versus ALA. I, and at least 4 of my friends, have been using this stuff since day 1. Rala might be slightly more effective, and I say MAY be, but its not worth the cost/effective ratio. nuff said :)

I got to go higher than 16 to maintain, I must be a hard hard gainer! lol

bullshit (pun intended) money has to be made so statements like this will no doubt arise. ALA raises insulin as much as water...lol. It must be noted, however, that ALA is superior because I can walk into almost any store and get it...while Rala is hard to come by.

I've looked at the studies. I also know that if you need double the racemic blend to get the same effect as Rtype, then you still end up paying slightly more for the Rala. you can buy 50 grams of the racemic for much cheaper than you can 20 grams of rala.

I'm thinking the long term effectiveness of a supp like this would wear off very fast..very.

I've been taking 3grams a day of racemic, or when available, 1-2 grams of R-ALA, per day, divided among meals. At first, the ALA seemed amazing. I could all the carbs at one meal without a bloat or sig. weight gain. However, the effect has seemed to plateau during the last 3 months. So, it was...
