Nutricost R-Alpha Lipoic Acid 100mg, 120 Capsules - Veggie Capsules, Non-GMO, Gluten Free

Good for soothing damaged nerves of the feet.

This supplement is a small capsule so it is easy to swallow. There is no after taste or indigestion from it. I have been taking this for about two months and the pain in my feet has almost subsided. I also do a lot of praying for healing. The only way to know if it will work for you is to try it.

I’m just writing this review for those who aren’t yet aware that ***R alpha lipoic acid *** is the ONLY active form. (Just remember R = REAL)I got ripped off until I was informed through an online forum, and I fact checked it thoroughly.The fact is, the synthetic form of alpha lipoic acid (aka S alpha lipoic acid) is NOT active. You can’t even buy a mixture of both forms— the synthetic form cancels out the natural form.Supplement companies have been ripping off consumers for years by using the cheap form which is COMPLETELY USELESS!My legs and feet were numb and tingly from mid calf down for at least two years and it was driving me crazy. I was taking the wrong form for probably 8 months —religiously— until I learned the truth. I’ve been taking the R form for 4 months now, and I’m really getting results. My feet and lower legs are 90% better now, and really only get numb when I’m lifting weights or have had a very long day on my feet. (I’m 60.)I hope this helps anyone who needs it. And please—do your own research as well!

recommended by my foot dr. and it SURE IS GREAT on helping with 'dead' or highly active 'nerve ends'... absolutely GREAT. MUST HAVE the R or it isn't the same.

The product is fine. Delivery was delayed day after day.

After suffering from Peripheral Neuropathy for 3 years and trying many exercises and supplements without relief, I nearly gave up. My doctors gave me no hope for easing the pain and telling me I'll just have to live with it.So I was again researching for something to help. I had tried ALA last year without any noticable change in symptoms. So I saw a doctor who again advised ALA but a commenter below his video said it has to be R-Alpha Lipoic Acid, not any other form.So just to try it again I bought this one here on Amazon and started taking 300mg every morning. At first the easing of pain was so slow and subtle that I wasn't sure it was actually a change for the better. Now, after 3 weeks I can say that I am positive that the pain in my toes and feet is less severe. I continue to have pain and numbness but it is definately less. I actually feel up to taking my little dog out for walks. So now that I feel definate progress I plan to continue this supplement for the foreseeable future.The video I refer to is on YouTube on "motivational doc".

After taking this product for a month, I stopped walking into a room then forgetting why I was there. I have been taking it for almost 2 years now and both my wife and I have noticed huge memory improvement!
