Does ALA cause stomach cramps for you?

[psroth]

I was taking 1800mg of ALA a day and it was causing pretty bad stomach cramps. I cut back to 900 mg and the cramps went away. How do you guys do 3 or 4 grams and not keel over in pain?

Does this sound normal to you?

When taking huge doses you must eat immediately and A LOT, i have learned

Yes-gives me heartburn and stomach cramps at 500mgs and over so I just take smaller amounts and space them out.

I get heartburn Too. The most I can stomach is 300mg 3x a day.
