Lipoic acid should be taken on an empty stomach.
The carnitine also has limits to absorption, so large doses should
be broken up into smaller ones more frequently instead.
There is a new lipoic acid called R-lipoic stabilized (NaRALA), which is very absorbable, and more efficient.
Doctor's Best offers it reasonably... which can be found on Amazon.
These two may be combined in one product but that would have the old form ALA which is not well absorbed, and only 1/2 of it is the active R type.
I suggest using them separately. Get 250mg acetyl carnitine,
and take one twice a day. And one R-lipoic stablized 100mg a day. That would be better I think, since you can control doses of each.
