I have not had this prob at all. I take 300mg r-ala and about 2-3 grams of normal ala through the day.

However, I am bulking right now, if I remember correct I did get some headaches when cutting and low carbing, but I just figured it was a low carb thing.

Dehydration was never and isnt an issue for me. Sorry cant help more brother.

i am at 6g currently, and only occasionally do i feel a headache come on, the dehydration is never an issue if im pounding water every 5minutes or so, although i dont know quite how healthy this is for me as i am only ingesting 20g of carbs/day
 
I was going over 8 grams a day.

the only reason I stopped was that I couldn't function normally.

I never get headaches - yesterday was the first time I have had one in over 2 years. it must have been a migraine because I couldn't see out of my right eye and all I could hear was a screaming sound.
was unpleasant to say the least.

but I haven't been using ALA for a bit - and to answer your question, never headaches on it.
just fatigue and spaced out, sometimes the heartburn feeling.
 
similar here natty.....possibly the t-3....I bet anyway......

8 grams?
What was your carb intake?

isnt that a little dangerous to be taking that much ala and so few carbs?

my "normal" carb intake is never that much as it is.
I tried going low carb with it and was absolutely retarded. to the point where driving was too complex a task for me and I was always in a bad mood.
my regular levels of carbs (100-200g a day) were also unpleasant.
the only way I felt okay with that much ALA was if I consciously added carbs to every meal. usually via fruit juices or pasta.

it wasn't all at once though, I started at a gram with every meal and then went up from there. I think for "fun" I tried two grams at every meal, and it was a pain in the ass to take that many caps and I didn't feel much difference from the 1g at every meal.

if I don't do ALA for awhile, then when I first start up, I feel great and have more energy, and then after about 2 or 3 days on it, I get back to feeling like shit, and that stays with me for about a week after stopping ALA.
 
thanks for the link, though all i really thought was good was the part that it said it recycled vitamin c over a small time of deficiency
