There are some sites on the net that recommend delayed release ALA...(the old type) and these tend to be quite expensive.
A somewhat related question: I'm switching from AlphaLipoic to R-Lipoic. The Alpha was supposed to be taken on an empty stomach. I've searched the forum and don't see any posts indicating that the same is true for R-Lipoic. Right?
