Glycobol vs Insulean K

[vladimirb68]

I know that Glycobol is much more popular on this board but the formulas are fairly similar with Insulean K being much cheaper. Can anyone comment on relative effectiveness, personal experiences, etc.
Thanks!

They share only 1 common ingredient and even that is a different form of the active. My main complaint is the proprietary blend.

BN has ingredients listed individually. It is 200 mg KRALA.

I have seen main ingredients breakdown on Insulean K but cannot find it atm. It is 200 mg KRALA.

All I've seen is a prop blend formula and K-RALA is a less potent form of R-ALA. It is ~40% active as opposed to ~70% for Na-R-ALA.

Insulean k works great I've used it as well with great success but haven't used it in 2 years. its much weaker then glycobol

I am new to this site and have been reading (crazy fool 405) your posts and realize you are quite knowledgeable so may I ask a few questions:

1. Can r lipoic acid or this product store fat – for instance if you have a cheat meal that includes a high amount of fat and carbs will the carbs and fat be stored more efficiently…sat fat that is. I kind of get the impression that r lipoic is for carbs and protein only
2. My typical workout – lift and then basketball for about an hour each…what should the diet be for maximum success/fat loss/results with using this product. I only have about a 1 hour window between the two…I love combining the two because I get such a great feelings the days I can do this…don’t like to use to much ala before basketball as your attention can wane and low blood sugar can slam on the breaks of a great workout

Kind of random questions but you seem like the person to start with…any response is greatly appreciated. I am 5 10 190ish…about 8 or 9%. Not much visible fat just looking to perfect and maintain. Trying to keep carbs low (around 120 ish on hard workout days) and I love this product…just want to know exactly when and how to take it. I would appreciate any response ot the questions above

I kind of get the impression that r lipoic is for carbs and protein only it really emphasises nutrients intro muscle tissue and away from fat/adipose tissue, the control of insuline and blood sugar helps this process to gear weight gain from the areas u dont want them *put simply lol*

I am taking Glycobol...forgot to say that. Really believe that supplements containing R lipoic are best for me...just looking for some advice as to timing and such.
