Natrol Dietary Supplements Alpha Lipoic Acid Time Release 600 mg Tablet 45ct

"Acetyl-L-carnitine and an antioxidant, alpha-lipoic acid.the two supplements together, these old rats got up and did the Macarena," said Ames, also a researcher at Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI). "The brain looks better, they are full of energy - everything we looked at looks more like a young animal." This is why my wife and I take this combo. I gave ALA to a diabetic friend and his blood sugar dropped from about 130 to 122. He was an elderly big man only slightly overweight.

I have severe pain from peripheral neuropathy. My neurologist suggested ALA. I tried a non-time released product that badly burned my stomach so I searched for a time released product. After 6 months of use, I knew this was helping but REALLY found out how much when I ran out and had a little trouble getting a fast enough shipment. Oh, how I suffered for that week! I am going to try doubling the dose to see if I get even more relief.

I had hoped it would help my neuropathy but it hasn’t A friend recommended. Maybe be I need higher dose or maybe it just isn’t working for me

Natrol Alpha Lipoic Acid helps me manage my peripheral neuropathy so I can go about my normal life's routine in relative comfort.

Works great. I'm disabled, have neuropathy which this really helps alot. Take it every day.

Found Natrol ALA @ a better price, $9.99. fyi. Regards jHb

Great product for me. Easy ordering and fast shipping

So far, it seems to be working. Only time will tell...

I had a friend recommend ALA for neuropathy. I surveyed the many options in the store and chose this because time-release seemed to make sense. My online research showed that ALA only stays active for 2-4 hours. Anyway, it worked like magic -- I took one each morning and my neuropathic pain disappeared, my nerves even seemed to work better ! After a week, I bought another bottle for my elderly father, and my wife started taking them -- both also have neuropathy tingles. It worked for both of them. Then, after another week, we compared notes and discovered that we were all suffering from episodes of extreme sleepiness in the afternoons and evenings. Almost like narcolepsy. I actually went for afternoon naps -- something I have never done before. The only thing we all had in common was this time-release ALA. I googled it and found that sleep disturbances do occur with ALA -- but saw nothing on the scale of what we were suffering. Anyway, we all quit. It took two days to get it out of our system. I loved what it did for my neuropathy, so I tested half a pill before bed -- it messed me up the next afternoon. My Dad accidentally took one after a week -- it messed him up the next day. It seems that the time release mechanism might be much too slow. It takes a few days to build up to where it messes with your sleep, then it takes two days to get it out of your gut. In conclusion, I love what it did for my nerves, but the sleepiness was not worth it. I took a lot of research to figure out what the problem was. I am going to continue testing other dosages and other formulas (R-ALA) at different times of day. .. and probably another brand as well.

A natural at the park like a pork acid is tremendous it works better than any product I’ve tried love it I’ll never quit using it very very happy give it a five star rating

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Time released Is a great benefit as you only have to take one a day. The Alpha Lipoic Acid made by Natrol is great anti-oxidant protection. This product support your energy and helps to rejuvenate cells. It helps to prevent cell damage related to aging and environmental stress. It is a vegetarian product it contains no milk fish eggs shellfish or nuts, wheat or soybeans and no added sugars. A great addition to your dietary supplements.

It worked from the first tablet for all 3 of us taking it. I felt more energy and slept better. My mother's feet tingling, twitching, and numbing went away. My sister is finally able to sleep without waking up every 2-3 hours.

I am in my mid 70's and I feel this is one of the supplements that is helping me to stay healthy. I have been taking it for years and it helps me with energy and keeps me out of harms way because it's got anti oxidants. I take the time release so I can be protected 24/7.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the product to try and give my opinion about it. I was happy about the size of the capsule, as some supplements are huge. So a smaller size was very nice for me to see. Per instructions, you are to take once a day with a meal. Adding this supplement wasn't hard for me to do. I found no issues for me. The supplement is supposed to help with age related, cell issues and blood sugar issues. Frankly, cannot really speak to how or what it is supposed to help with. But, every bit of help as I age is welcome. It is simple enough to add the supplement daily and I will keep using. Maybe I will gain some benefit from using. But, being this easy to do daily, why not.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't know if it is actually working or if I just think it's working, but I've been taking these tablets for a couple weeks and I do believe I feel a difference. Typically, I feel exhausted and tired halfway into the day which I think is unnatural for someone my age. But lately I do feel more alert and no side effects to be noted.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had great results with this products. Makes me feel less hungover and ready to attack the day. I take this once a day and just feel better in general and can just feel healthier and more eager to start the day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have diabetic neuropathy in my feet to the point where sometimes cannot sleep. These pills do improve the tingling and coldness that I suffer from this disease. I also notice an uptick in my energy levels when I take this every day. My blood sugars seem to stay more stable as well. I plan to continue to take these because of the great benefits to my health. I do recommend this supplement highly!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am always looking for different ways to help my body from the inside out. I have used many different vitamins and they have all lacked things I needed more of. I am glad I can get extra Lipoic acid without having to read each and every label.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Aging, is one thing that every one cannot escape from. I take dietary supplements everyday. The Patrol Alpha Lipoic Acid is an antioxidant. The pill/capsule size is good - I have no problem taking it, it's smaller than my calcium pills, however, my mom had to split the pill when she takes it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been taking one a day. I feel it is important to take an antioxidant daily to help with aging and energy support. These are great that they are time release and absorb slowly throughout the day..
