Kirkman's versus Vitamin Shoppe ALA

[Guest guest]

Aside from the benefit of having precisely measured doses, are there

any advantages to using Kirkman's ALA capsules (either 25mg or

compounded to specific dosing requirements) compared to the ALA

tablets sold by the Vitamin Shoppe?

Specifically, I'm wondering if there are advantages in terms of

absorption, potency, and purity.

Of course, Vitamin Shoppe ALA is significantly cheaper. But to get

12.5mg or 25mg, you have to carefully split the tablets. However,

given the significant cost savings, it may be worth the effort to

split them and sacrifice a small amount of dose accuracy, unless

Kirkman's truly has better absorption, potency, and/or purity.

Thanks!!!
