ALA and Ketosis.....

[The Shadow]

...had a lot of pm's on the subject so:
Today I have had 210 grams of both fast and slower acting carbs.

I had 1000mg of ALA in two divided does.

Keto-sticks say "moderate".

No cardio, just weight lifting.


Thought you guys might find it interesting...

I don't have the sticks, but i've got the keto breath...and i'm taking in well under 200g of carbs a day, with 1800mlgs of ALA.

If anyone wants my sticks ill ship them to your PO. I did keto and it fucked me. I think keto is better for people over 25.


I quit and carbed up............talk about water....

ill take them keto worked great for me but I was always wondering why I never saw any signs of ketosis except for hte lethargy.

 

[gymrat]

I'm not trying to get into ketosis, but i am in it none-the-less.

What would happen if you were taking ALA on a very low carb diet.I have been taking in less than 20 grams of carbs a day.Would that be a bad idea to take ALA with only 20grams or less of carbs a day?

 

[chrisoh]

at 20 carbs a day you will already be in ketosis and you're not taking in enough carbs to load your muscles with glycogen from the ALA.
