From what I understand... A general rule of thumb in practical application is that 100mg of r-ALA is roughly comparable to about 300mg of ALA... seeing that most ALA is composed of some s-ALA which is basically useless... would it be a best bet to use ALA (from 1fast) 300mg pills 4x daily or just take 3x pills daily of r-ALA... I say this because I want each product to last at least 30days... Seems that ALA would be the smarter buy but just looking for some opinions... THANKS

thank you I read the links but neither addresses my concerns... somewhere I read that s-ala can counteract r-ala's benefits therefore making r-ala the way to go? does this claim have any merit? thanks

No, it really doesn't. Some literature has speculated this, but I've never seen it conclusively proven in humans...

ALA is 50/50 R-ALA/S-ALA so going by that assumption each 300 mg would still be 150 mg R-ALA.

For ordering questions, go to the ordering forum or check out the appropriate section of the main page....
