what quantity caps were you using? I might try your approach towards doseages but I want to get a little more background about this (health wise). Keep us updated.
I was using 3-4 300mg capsule with each meal. I used vitamin shoppe brand, but any will do. There is an issue of iron deficiency (and minerals in general) at that dosage. I take an iron pill/day as well as a multivitamin with minerals. There also a study that shows that extreme dosages of ALA interfere with biotin in rats. Whether this applies to humans is unknown. I don't intend to stay on this dosage forever.
The 600mg/day dosage is great for liver protection. ALA's insulin potentiating properties as well as nutrient partitioning effects don't become pronounced until much more is taken. It depends on what you're trying to achieve with ALA.
In my opinion. using ALA at the multi-gram level/day has anabolic effects, (nutrient partitioning, muscle sparing etc) similar to low strength steroids like primobolan. When combined at that dosage with juice, it really potentiates it, much like adding insulin to your cycle..
