R-ALA correct dosages ?

[mike1107]

For the R-ALA professional, what doses of R-ALA are you usin while on and off roids ?
of what does the dosage depend ? I know it's calculated by the carb intake in a meal but what is the "formula" to calculate how much to take if there is one ?

 

[Ulter]

Taking steroids make your insulin levels rise and it make you glucose intollerant. So you want to be using r-ALA every day you are on. The Dr that wrote the book on ALA Dr Berkson has 27 years of experience with it and he recommends 400mg for those under 60 and 600mg for those over (I assume you're under). Keep in mind though he isn't talking about people taking steroids. So I would suggest you go for the high end and use 600mg day 2 caps per meal if you're eating 3/day.

I'm eating 6 meals/day,so it'd mean I have to take 100mg before each meal....that's it ?
what is the dosage of R-ALA which is sold in the AF store ?

 

[Ulter]

The r-ALA sold in the AF Store is the only r-ALA there is right now. No carbs, no 17aa steroids, yes 1 per meal at 6 meals per day.

holy fuck ulter! so you mean i am supposed to take 4 caps of R-ALA every time i drink 130 carbs of WGainer 4 times a day? shit, i thought 1 or 2 would work each time i downed one. that would get expesive, since there are two other times i eat also that have carbs involved. say it aint so.

BUMP

 

[myasshurts]

I take 100mg before each meal with carbohydrates. That seems to work quite well.

WARBIRDWS6 I only take 2-3 caps for 100gr of carbs and that works fine for me. The dosing of r-ALA is very individual and depends greatly on you own glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, and age so 2 for me could be 4 for you. We say 1 per 30gr as a rule of thumb.
