ALA--how to give?

[Guest guest]

I just started ALA with my son. I'm using Kirkman's. The powder doesn't seem to

dissolve

very well in liquid. This may seem like a really dumb problem...but I want to

get the dose in

minimal amt of fluid.

I was planning to give it via syringe, dissolved in a small amt of warm water

for the night-

time doses. But it leaves much of the ALA in the tiny glass bowl, once I draw it

up into

syringe.

Is there a better way? Or a better form? Or is this pretty usual? Should I

increase dose,

allowing for the wasted residual in the bottom of the glass cup?

Since I just started, I am doing .125 mg per pound (which means 4 mg per dose

for my 32-

pound sweetie). But maybe I should increase-- if this is tolerated--since I am

leaving visible

amts. clinging to the side of the bowl?

Thanks for ideas...
