Re: brands of ALA? SHERESA

[Guest guest]

Is this what you use for chelation? I just want to make sure this is the right

antioxidant that can be given with oral DMSA for chelation purposes.

Thanks,

We use Kirkman's hypoallergenic ALA. It doesn't have anything extra

comes lower than 25 mg but there may be some out there. To make a

smaller dose, like 5 mg or 10mg you can dump the entire capsule

contents into a measured amount of juice and divide the doses up

equally like that. Or to give 12.5 mg it is pretty easy to split a 25

mg cap and pour half of it into another empty capsule.

ALA is also a chelator, and needs to be treated accordingly, i.e.

dosed every three hours, 1/8 to 1/2 mg per pound for several days on

and an equal or greater number of days on.

Hi,

I saw your thread and was just wondering. Are you using ALA, or DHLA

Dihydrolipoic acid. Normal LA cannot chealte HG (Mercury). It is

only effective on other heavy metals, or are you using it for its

antioxident properties only? Just curious, Im just doing some

research.

Thanks

That's going to be news to Andy. :-)

I could be wrong, just what I found when researching the 2. I read it

in a study on LA and DHLA. I think the author was a guy named Ben

Best. Most of the research came from the Journal of Biological

Chemistry, and some National Academy of Scientists findings.

Isn't this saying that ALA converts to DHLA once ingested?

God, I wish I paid more attention in Chem Lab.

Yes this is what I am using for chelation on my children. Every 3

hours, 3days on/4days off. I am seeing very good results so far

after 6 rounds now.
