Re: Re: acetyl-L-carnitine also R(+) Lipoic Acid and Stability

RLA and Stability- ongoing investigation.

These guys post their independent laboratory analysis of their RLA at their

website:

BAC.com will send you theirs on request.

And then there's this:

(not sure what to make of these claims...)

Both of these companies sound very convincing about their product. Apparently both of these R+Lipoic supplements are much more stable than the products that some CRonies have been using. I have been using Juvenon which of course is not R+, but said by Bruce Ames to be an effective form of Lipoic, just not AS effective as R+. I have been relunctant to try R+ supplements because they are said to degrade so rapidly, which I understand is why Bruce Ames decided against using it in Juvenon. I am now thinking of switching to one of these new products, but of course know nothing really about these companies except that their products sound great. I am hoping that some on this list who are more knowledgeable about R+Lipoic will offer comments and/or advice.

Difficult to know whom to trust in these matters! I have written to

ConsumerLab.com asking them to evaluate R(+) lipoic acid supplements, but

that my take some time, if it is ever done.

Wakfer knows quite a bit about supplements. Perhaps his input on the

matter may help you:
