I think I asked this before but can't find the thread. I stopped taking rla so I don't remember the answer. My new bottle of rla says to take 300-600 mg a day! That seems high..

Question

So what is the name of your new bottle? There are many types of lipoic acid out there now. Yours could be one of 3 types.

I don't believe this is the stabilized form of R lipoic. That means you do need the high doses because it is not absorbed well.
300mg a day is an average dose of this, and should be on an empty stomach.

This is an example of the improved form, which has been modified to be more absorbable.

It is the one I use and some others here use also.
You only need one capsule a day of this.

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought r lipoic acid was the stabilized form of alpha lipoic acid. I didn't realize there were two types. That makes sense now.
