r-lipoic acid and acid reflux?
Hi.
I just switched yesterday from alpha lipoic acid 600 mg a day to Doctor's Best R-Lipoic acid 100 mg a day. I now seem to be having acid reflux issues. Started last night. I didn't notice any of this while I was on the alpha lipoic acid, so I'm definitely thinking there is a connection to the r-lipoic. I wanted to switch over to it though because I had read good things about it here (being more potent, needing less, etc.)
Does anyone else have any issues with acid reflux while taking r-lipoic acid? Any suggestions on how to combat that? I thought I was supposed to take r-lipoic acid on an empty stomach to increase its effectiveness. Should I be taking it with food due to my acid reflux issues?
Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestions. I'd hate to quit on this r-lipoic after just a couple of days.
Oh, and the reason for taking it is to try and help my small fiber neuropathy.
