Na-R Alpha Lipoic Acid

[SnowbaII]

Can anyone recommend a brand of Na- R Alpha Lipoic Acid that you trust?

I've been researching for awhile and I have been having trouble deciding which brand to choose because I want to make sure that it is a brand that delivers a consistent quality of Na-R ALA , and that is safe, and hopefully affordable.

Hi Snowball, I seem to remember that being one of the supplements I searched for years ago when I first had Pbc. I’ve always thought Solgar is a reliable company, they are American. If you’ve looked at lots you probably know of them. I hope my memory is correct Ha! I had a book about Liver and Bowel health and it listed loads of recommended liver supplements. It was an Australian author and lots of the enzymes etc were not available in UK, guess cause EU regulations.

Good luck,

Thanks! I had another question, since I know many posters have taken Na- R-Alpha Lipoic Acid along with a vitamin B Complex and if you yourself have used both, do you think you can tell me if you've taken both at the same time? or do you take them separately and space out when you take them? Which should I take first? and do you take them on an empty stomach? Thank you again!

Good morning....finding a safe, affordable and clean supplement does seem to be a challenge. Doctor's Best, Pure Encapsulations, Life Extension and Integrative Therapeutics are very reliable sources. I usually check a few sites for best pricing. IHerb, Pure Formulas, and Vitacost are 3 websites that offer great products at really good prices. Not sure where you are in the world, but in the USA, these are readily available. Happy hunting on your journey. Be well

I take my B complex alone on an empty stomach. I use a liquid tincture by Mary Ruth's organics. As far as taking the two at the same time, I do not do that, but for no real reason. Perhaps talking to a naturopathic doctor would be in order. Be well
