Also, reading the one report it states : It has been suggested that the presence of S-lipoic acid in the racemic mixture may limit the polymerization of R-lipoic acid and enhance its bioavailability. At present, it remains unclear which supplemental form is best to use in clinical trials.
So it may be better to use the mix ?
Thanks John,
Just to make sure I understand your response. You would reccomend the pure r-alpha over the mixed ? As the pure should work better. ( I wish it was less expensive)
Background: I've had the numbness under or maybe I should say thickness in between my toes and balls of my feet for years, but after getting a covid shot, this feeling has started to spread, and sometimes the bottom of my foot feels bruised, like I was hit with a baseball bat on tHe balls of my foot. (That comes and goes) , sometimes a tightness in the tops ofmy feet like a slight sunburn, I also came down with foot drop ( mainly in my big toe, using nmes stimulation for that) ) sent to neurologist , to nerve Dr for the nerve tests in my legs, to mri of spine, to spine Dr, to spine surgeon . And back to neurologist specialist.
Was told I have periphrial neuropathy (mainly because I have diabeties, even though I keep my a1c levels around 6.3. As soon as they see diabeties.. that's the cause, no other discussion about it) and a bulging disk (l5-s1) (and spondilolithisus) compressing nerve root. He wanted to fillet me like a fish, remove the disc and do a fusion. I said, let's try some decompression and pt first. Decompression is working for my back,
I've also been on prednisone for a couple years for pmr.. tapering off of it, down to 6mg. I would like to get ahead of any nerve damage I have so I can walk better ( also have had loss of strength , so I can't walk very far, legs / arms ache ) all kinds of blood work done, low on b6, end e. Started suppliments for those (a b complex so im getting all the b's) along with magnesium glyconate (for muscle twitching) I retired in 2020 and someone flipped a switch on my body and it's decided it's had enough.
I believe I'm taking e erything in the protocol (minus the hemp and r-ala) there may be one or two more . Just don't remember them.
