Supplements - What helps nerve pain and/or neuropathy?

Hi John, my experience taking ALA has been very positive for almost 2 years: I take the combo R+S total 550 mg. 2Xday. The cost is less than $30 for 120 capsules compared to $103 for the ones in the article. That is a huge difference in cost without knowing if the more expensive actually works any better. Just my 2cents. I have seen less expensive R-ALA available on-line also. I also read about the un- stabilized ALA which just meant to store it away from heat.

Hi Helen
I just now started using R-ALA for my peripheral neuropathy and I get it at Walmart . Here it is;
ALLMAX Nutrition, R+Alpha Lipoic Acid (Max Potency R+ALA), 150 mg, 60 Capsules.
Qty. 1 $11.99
Would you be so kind as to share the name or brand of R ALA you take and do you buy it on line? Thank you!

Hi Helen, I'm glad it's helping you which is more important. I used to take the cheaper stuff with synthetic ALA included but decided to switch as the other wasn't helping me...but then I don't have pain so that may factor in if it's helping you. I take 2 R-ALA 300 mg tablets twice a day where the S-ALA has been removed and it does cost more to remove the synthetic ALA during the process which is why it's not removed by a lot of companies selling it. The one I use is $30 for 90 capsules. There are different brands available but this is the one I use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M0QS5C7/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl
