Where is the best time to take ALA?

[SUST-MAN]

Should i take it before.....during....or after my meal?

 

[therookie]

right before.....and make sure you eat if you dont you'll have nasty heartburn if your taking a gram or more.

Whats the normal dosages??!

 

[maxellyz]

i take it right before meals 3 times a day each dosage 600-800mg

-MAX

Whats the normal dosages??!

every one will vary....rule of thumb: 10mg for every 1 gm of carbohydrate

example: 100 carbs.....1,000 mg of ALA

figure this may go up for some....down for others!

i'm 5'11 and weigh 195.....this equation works perfect for me

now how about some karma!

i just eat 1500mg or 2000mg per serving....3 times a day..

And if i eat a small snack....i'll just tak 500-1000mg

Maybe i take too much...but i see guys on here that take 3000mg per serving....

There is now a new R-ALA available which kicks the crap outta the normal ALA you buy online and in stores. For that, take about 1000mg a day or so. I just ordered mine.

1000mg may be too much.. Ulter has experienced very low blood sugar with 200-300mg... when taken with well over 100 grams of carbs..

since dosing parameter are going to be different.. start low 100-200mg per meal and work you way up (if necessary.. which seems unlikely)
