Horse smell.. LOL.. but hey it works, seriously not joking.
One of the reason behind the top 10% is because they allow sick people to participate in developing the ranges, the ranges are developed not for "healthy" people but for people not dying of disease. Your trying to be healthy. I realize your adrenals would have a hard time on pain meds.. i have had to increase my hydrocortisone, thanks for the reminder.. argh.. my pooe adrenals have given out , i'd like to get a handle on exactly why? |

Google: adrenal fatigue causes If you suspect some particular reason/trigger, try googling that with adrenal fatigue, and see if a cause/effect connection turns up in the literature. Doc |

I don’t have BMS myself but I have read a few people with BMS and this was only thing that gave them relief. Remember, its got to be the dissolvable version not the regular pill form. |

I hadn't heard of this condition before, but there seems to be quite a bit of information on the web. My first thought before even looking was that it sounds like something involving the peripheral nervous system, and sure enough... Quote:

In the event we're spinning our wheels here, it might be helpful to tell us a bit more (start a separate thread for clarity) about what you know about your BMS (primary/secondary, suspected cause(s), tests, things you've already tried, etc.) Doc |

Are you implying because it’s stabilized, 100mg of stabilized = 300mg ALA-R (non stablized)=600mg ALA? |
This is the thread where we all at PN discuss and discover the solubility of the various lipoic acid formulations.

I do recall digging the info out of threads here, and following up on the web, even if I didn't understand it entirely. I'm on my first month of the stabilized form now (had to use up supplies of regular RLA) but I have not personally noted any difference over regular RLA as yet. I started RLA over a year ago now, and it has been near-miraculous in my case (results may vary considerably). The stuff stopped my burning/pins & needles pain from PN within 48 hrs, and progression of the condition has stopped as well (but I cannot say for certain the RLA is responsible for that - it could be a number of factors).

To put it simply:
RX drugs go thru an expensive process to make them BIOavailable...meaning they have to be absorbed a certain amount in each person, reliably. This is part of the new drug application evaluated by the FDA. Generics have to match this data within certain statistical limits. But supplements do not go thru this process unless the maker chooses to. So therefore, people taking supplements, vitamins and minerals, may not absorb what the label claims is in it. A case in point is magnesium OXIDE...which for decades was the only supplement of magnesium out there. But it is very poorly absorbed we know now when recent studies compared various salts of magnesium and found OXIDE the worst in this regard. But doctors still prescribe it...unknowing. The NIH website has this information on it now, but of course doctors don't read it. http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/magnesium/ Quote:
zinc, B12, to name a few. Sometimes it is as easy as taking on an empty stomach, but other times the supplement has to be modified to be absorbed better. R-lipoic is one that when solubilized with sodium, is better absorbed, and hence works better at lower doses. Alpha lipoic therefore has 3 issues. 1) the old racemic mix...is not all useful to the body 2) focusing on R-lipoic sounds good, and is out there...BUT.... 3) Sodium RALA (NaRALA) is most soluble in the stomach and hence thought to be the best one we have now. (this one is called STABILIZED on the label.) Some new technologies are coming for liposomal nano-emulsions of various vitamins and supplements, and we will see more of these soon. Vit C and curcumin are examples available now in liposomal forms to enhance absorption further. So far they tend to cost more money, but that will probably change as time passes and demand accelerates for them. And in the future what we say now, will most likely be obsolete. |
