This is what I do, I buy the 200 mg capsules pure ALA from my health food store and mix the entire capsule thoroughly into honey, then separate out the doses for each of my four kids. I don't pre-mix tho, so I cannot comment on that question. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that what you are suggesting should work fine. I have not mixed ALA into water myself so I can't say how well it " mixes " . I only know of ONE source of liquid ALA (it is listed in the file), and it is much more expensive than doing it yourself. You may also want to check the price examples listed for compounded ALA in small amounts. I don't recall how it compares.... best wishes, Moria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
