It appears that everything I read and every supplement advertised contains R- Alpha Lipoic Acid.what do members think about this, does it work or is it a waste of money.

I think R-ALA can be one of the puzzle pieces for supplements that have been shown to help with nerve health but I don't think R-ALA alone is the answer, but that is just my non-medical opinion. The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy has a list of supplements that have been shown to help neuropathy at the end of their list of complementary and alternative treatments - https://www.foundationforpn.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Complementary-and-Alternative-Treatments-Revised-2020-final.-1.pdf.

Google Scholar can be helpful to find research studies and information on supplements - https://scholar.google.com/
