r-ALA + no carbs + heavy workout = NOT GOOD!

>you should use 800mg R-ALA per 100g carbs.

Incorrect.

Someone did this big ass research on r-ala a few months ago on this board and posted the results. The MORE r-ala, the LESS effective (% wise) the additional r-ala become. A decreasing slide. The end result was that the BEST method that worked was 2-3 r-ala pills MAX. Regardless of what you're eating. After 3, it's effects were minimal if any.

If you mean the R-ALA vs ALA empirical study.

That would have been ME.

And when i meant MAXIMIZE glucose diposal i meant totally.

400mg/100g carbs gives the best cost effective results. 600mg/100g carbs gives you an added 6-8% effectiveness over the 400mg dose.
800mg/100g carbs gives you an added 11% over the 400mg dose.

So, you're the one thats incorrect.

R-ALA isn't really that expensive guys. GH is far more expensive.

40, what fonz does is close to what I tell everyone to do. But with Gatorade, not powerade or snapple. You should take the Glucorell R and keep a bottle of Gatorade with you while training and finish it as you train.

NOTICE: DO NOT USE R-ALA WITHOUT BIOTIN.
Esp at your age.

Ulter,why do you have to use the biotin with the r-ala at that age?The reason I ask is I'm around that age and when I got my 1st bottle of r-ala I hadent heard to take biotin with it.So did I just waste my money when I was takin the r-ala?

 

[Ulter]

No dieman, you didn't waste your money at all. The thing is that r-ALA depletes biotin, and essential b-vitaman and over 40's have a real problem with dryness and sore joints when their biotin is depleted. We didn't know this until the reports started showing up on the women's board and from people off the boards. There was nothing in the literature to indicate this was a problem. When the reports and posts started Dr Macro looked for a cause and found it. Biotin.

if you take 8iu humulin R post w/o and do your proper carb feedings......how long after the injection of humulin would you be safe taking R-ala????? or just don't use it on insulin days??????

I may be suffering the r-ala effects- my joints have been dry and sore, like on winnie. And missed the lowdown over at AF. Have there been confirmations that the biotin fixed the problem?

40 nice job bro
