Many thanks for the feedback and a couple of comments.


1) I am already taking two fish oils capsules per day of 1200 mg each.


2) I also taken the appropiate magnisium, Vit. B-12, and D-3. I also take a low dose of Armour Thyroid (30 mcg per day giving me a TSH of 1.12).


3) In the past I used 1800 mg of regular Alpha Lipoic Acid taken several times per day. That, in-turn, seemed to reduce my fasting and 2-hour sugar numbers by 10 to 20 %.


4) I then noticed the same thing when I took 600 mg of R-Lipoic Acid daily about a year ago.


5) That being said, Mrs. D, I thought that you mentioned that your sugar numbers came down by 10 points when you were using R-Lipoic Acid. Is that correct and / or am I missing something? I thought that ALA and / or RLA were natural and effective ways of tackling blood sugar?


6) With a blood insulin level of 114 should I be concerned about some type of malfunction with my pancreas itself (I also did not exercise before the test)?





Thanks!
