Does ALA cause stomach cramps for you?

[b22md]

i take 1000mg a few minutes before every meal, and i have no problems. maybe you guys just need to flush your caps down with more water, because when they disolve and you have the ALA powder scattered through your digestive tract it can cause a heartburn like sensation. remember it is an acid. if you put the ALA powder on your tongue, you will know what i am talking about

got mine from kilo...started at 900mg/day....nothing but headaches and cramps...so i drank more water....still had headaches....still had cramps....up to 3gms/a day and no headaches, no cramps, good energy supply thru the day...buddy of mine got his from beyond-a-century and had the same thing, headaches, crampiness...up'd his amount and no problems....also check your fiber intake...make sure you got good #2's coming out...
