Half doses of cholestyramine spread out through day = no side effects for me. Neuropathy and ALC + ALA, with or without arginine

[Guest guest]

I've found that when I'm not getting much exposure,

if I take mini-doses, taking 4 gm of cholestyramine spread

out in two or three mini-doses through

the day gives me very few side effects at all

and still reduces the inflammation that I get quite a bit compared to none.

I carry packages with me so I can put it in water during the day.

The crucial thing for me seems to be taking it on an empty stomach and

then following

it with a small amount of food with fat, then, later on some fiber.

If I get a big exposure, though, I need to take more.

Lee, have you ever tried taking acetyl-l-carnitine alone or acetyl-l-carnitine

with alpha-lipoic acid and/or arginine (NO donor and improves microcirculation)

for your neuropathy?

Lots of hits on PubMed on those nutrients and the word " neuropathy " in

various combinations!

Good luck!
