r-ALA experiment

"Considering that would last the average person 9 years and it's only good for two
years I don't see the advantage of that"

Agreed...it would only be economical for someone who was going to share it or on-sell it.

I have recently been taking 5000mcg biotin once per day whether or not I use ALA. I also eat a lot of biotin rich foods (legumes, brewer's yeast, egg yolks, whole grains, nuts and mushrooms etc...). However it is always possible that I need more. I haven't had the problem since I've been using the P7 though.

Damn...lol

My study involves 5,10, and 15mg Biotin....

biotin is rapidly excreted.. it should be taken with every cap.. which is why it is being added to glucorellR. once a day dosing is not as good, but it helps. much better results with lower more frequent doses.

From the studies, I have seen...it was 10-15mg/day for improved insulin sensitivity. Hence why I was like ?????? when you came out with the 1mg caps. I guess its better for people eating 5-6 times/day. Take the Biotin w/ the r-ala.

I would not assume that what is needed for a diabetic is the same as what is needed by someone with already decent insulin sensitivity. At 5mg per day (the amount I'm taking), it is actually pretty high for someone who is supposedly healthy. Likewise I don't beleieve (but have no proof either way) that healthy weight exercising individuals will benefit as much as diabetics from high doses of r-ALA. That's not to say there is NO benefit, but I find it hard to believe that mega-doses are necessary.

Anyway, all is well now that I have good old fashioned fluid retention back again (thanks P7).

@#&#$!!

After I received and unpacked my shipment of r-ALA the other day, I accidently left one of the unopened bottles within a few inches of the food dehydrator, which gets fairly warm. Since the search engine is running slow as molasses right now, what's the temperature at which r-ALA degrades?

its not entirely known.. but at temps over 90, expecially for extended periods, care should be taken..

sure that it is fine..

things like leaving in car during summer time for hours on end (no.. no)

This is why I love AF - they don't lie to get your money. Macro could have told me that it was spoiled, and I would have gone right to the AF store and dropped another $24. Thank you!
