Shall see.. will update..stay tuned..do give me a like to show you are reading this to let me update accordingly. Stay healthy!
I have bought this product for several year now, there is nothing like this in the market as far as I know. The Jarrows brand always delivers on quality of their products, honestly I would only look for other brand of products if there is not a Jarros formula equivalent.
I was told to take this by my dietician for insulin resistance. I haven't been taking them for a full month, so I don't know about results yet. They are big, but I take one in the morning and one in the evening. I like the instant and sustained release of the tablets, and also that they are vegan. I always look for vegan supplements
Take this to help relieve pain from idiopathic peripheral neuropathy. Prescription lyrica did not work well and had lots of side effects. I felt it made my thoughts muddled! Alpha Lipoic Sustain works GREAT! I take about 1,200 mg, or 4 tablets a day. Haven't had any side effects and pain is relieved. Jarrow seems to work the best of any of the alpha lopoic acids.
Alpha Lipoic Acid has strong antioxidant properties, which may reduce inflammation and skin aging, promote healthy nerve function, and slow the progression of memory loss disorders. It's an organic compound found in all human cells. ALA is used to manage blood sugar associated with diabetes, spur weight loss, and ease neuropathy pain.
Originally, you had to discover for yourself why ALA supplements over a certain dosage would have side effects, and then research to find out what level to not exceed, what to avoid food wise, and that biotin needed to be added separately, at least occasionally, to both maximize benefit and eliminate negative effects. Jarrow is smart, and this medium dosage time-released ALA adds an appropriate level of usable biotin, so as long as you don’t mow down a handful of unbuffered C with rose hips, you’ll be safe as houses. Thank you, Jarrow!
Ala leaves your system very quickly.. sustained release is ideal to keep your levels steady vs a high amount at once. Benefit for antioxidant, free radicals, metal cleanse
Great for my neuropathy issues caused by covid vaccine. It greatly reduced my pain in legs and muscle twitches. It is my second bottle. Great formula because it includes Biotin as ALA flushes some Biotin out of the body.
This is the formula that really works for me. Jarrow has a reason for this sustained release formula with biotin. No more need to buy biotin any more either.
I had seen Dr. Berkson a few years back for my Hep C - he is the CDC and FDA expert on Lipoic acid. He had me on Metabolic Maintainence ALA - which is a great product, but pretty expensive.
