I couldn't tolerate alpha lipoic acid, only R- alpha lipoic acid, and only half of the mg. of alpha lipoic acid. I've read article somewhere that 600mg.of R- alpha lipoic acid equal to 1200mg of alpha lipoic acid. Using seeking health one.
I use 2 to 4 capsules a day, depends on pain in that day. If I get reflux, which sometimes happens, I have some food, or just chewing gum or soda bicarbonate. Definitely helps with pain.
I think, it makes my hot flashes worse, and more grumpy 😠 😡, but it helps with pain! To make myself more enjoyable to be around, I take magnesium, which is brilliant for neuropathy too, anyway 😄!
I think my pain is triggered by sweet food, which I sooo love unfortunately 😔 😕! And wine too! My two bad indulgences for neuropathy pain. Then I definitely need more R-ALA capsules 🙃🙂!
Worth trying! Good luck 👍 💓
