Re: CS>Question about diabetes:COMMENT TO MARSHALL.

My Apologies,
I had just initiated a post to you and "accidentally" struck a transmission key.
What I intended to say is that about 20% of our insulin-dependent Type II volunteers----especially those requiring 40+ units daily....required upwards of 800 mg of ALA (sometimes for as long as 7 days) in order to achieve acceptable stabilization parameters. This was especially prevalent among presenting cases of peripheral neuralgia. Interestingly, among a majority of these volunteers----the "maintenance dosage" of insulin required, diminished ;measurably....sometimes, dramatically. In almost all circumstances, a minimum of 400 mg of ALA remained a requirement for maintaining stable results affecting the key systemic indicators. One problem was recurrent (unexplainably so...to us). It was the rather high incidence of volunteers who, after achieving very acceptable control parameters.....either reduced the ALA (and many times other elements), or stopped it altogether. Problems re-occurred in EVERY case....within no less than 30 days. The principal explanat! ion given was that they "felt so good" they thought they could reduce their rather demanding supplement schedule. As a general rule....the older the subject, the more pronounced this tendency presented.
I might add that because of the rather linear decline in the positive effects of ALA (sometimes as long as 14 days)
there is a temptation to eliminate various components/protocols....from ones successful, present, regime.
Best Regards, Brooks.

Thank you for the information. I just checked and she is getting 200 mg

per day in her "Blood Glucose Success" supplement from Solaray. I will

see if I can get her to take some additional ALA.



Once again, thanks for the information.
