Alpha Lipoic Acid and Liver Values...

[Blonski]

I saw a post just recently quoting its use for maintaining liver values in conjuction with milk thistle. Is this true and if so, how much should be taken.

Thanks Guys.

Although there are quite a few references to it in the search, none really quote its effectiveness.

I thought that Lipoic Acis was used to increase insulin sensitivity i.e it enables your muscles to absorb protein+Carbs more efficiently.

600-100mg/day for liver protection. Its actually a
better liver protectant than Sylimarin(Milk thistle)
and Cranberry extract.

Godspeed

I'm on ALA ED. Its a great supplement, also a very powerful antioxidant! I was adviced by Huck to stack ALA, milk thistle, NAC & primrose oil when I wanted to stack 2 17AAs: anavar & dbol.

Yes,it's a very powerful antioxidant,and it's both water and fat soluble ulike the other antioxidants.It's also used to protect the eyes (detoxificator).I protects your liver in high doses but can be toxic uo to 600mg/day(though,no studies are made to prove this yet).It's common use is to help drive the carbs/protein into your muscles and help in better carb absorption(insuline sensitivity).It's better than chromium for this use.

Yep, ALA is good for the liver. It is really becomming my favorite supplement out there. In my mind, and if cost is not a factor, I feel everyone should be taking this supplement.

BULLSHIT.

The toxic dose for ALA is 30g(30000mg) for a 165-lb individual.

You need to do some more research.

Godspeed
