The primary supplement in the literature for chemo damage is
acetyl carnitine.

Here is a recent post similar:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/post867845-3.html

Alpha lipoic acid is the OLD version with necessity for taking very high doses to get results. Only 1/2 the old type which is a mixture of left and right handed molecules is active in the body.

There is a new one with improved solubility as well. So the ultimate answer is R-lipoic stabilized. Doctor's Best is the one I use and many others here as well.

I don't like Swanson's at this point. I was using Doctor's Best Theanine this summer, and ran out and tried Swanson's, for a month. It really didn't do the same job the Doctor's Best does for me. So while Swanson's has some interesting things in their catalog, the SunTheanine they package was not as effective as Doctor's Best. You can buy brand names out of their catalog for most other things you know. But I find Amazon just as affordable with free shipping over $25 now.

My comments earlier in the post are what I think about Neuropathy Support Formula. If you want to take that mixture and have the extra money for it... just take it on an empty stomach. It has the old alpha lipoic in it too. Keep that in mind.
