i want to eat carbs and minimize fat gain, which GDA is best out of NA-rala, slinsane, or pslin? does na-rala in bulk from nutra need to be stacked with ALCAR to avoid water retention?

This is all a matter of opinion.
I would start with 1 @ random and see how it goes then change it up. :)

Currently on narala and ALCAR with dosings referenced from Mr. Cooper and I'm liking it.

What was the dosing protocol he recommended? I've been interested in na~r~ala for a while. Would plcar have different effects on the na r ala?

Upon Waking/In The AM w/ a high carb meal: 300mg Na-R-ALA (and 1g agmatine)... +1g ALCAR about 30 minutes later
In the PM w/ a high carb meal: 300mg Na-R-ALA and 1g ALCAR 30 minutes later

No idea about the plcar.

Used slin slane and now using SAN na-r-ala, definitely been effective during prep, but seems like everyone has different preferences

Any one have any idea how much r lipoic acid it takes to equal narala on mg for mg basis? Mr. Cooper?

300mg R ala= 300mg R ala

250mg NA r ALA = 210mg R ala

Glycobol and slin sane as a stack always worked awesome for me.

So na r ala is almost 10x as potent as r ala, if I'm understanding you correctly? Is r lipoic stronger than plain ala?

Roughly 140mg of Na-RALA should give you 100mg of R-ALA.

ALCAR and taurine are also GDAs.
As SS said, na-r ala is best at 250mg.

I do
1200mg x2 a day
3 anabolic pump
1 pre workout (fasted), 1 at meal 1 (1pm) 1 at dinner 7pm

Works great
And I never get hypos and I am either low carb or keto

Has anybody used Na-rala as part of a lean bulk?
Would Na-rala help in this regard? (fat accumulation during a bulk)

Let me rephrase my question guys. Is 300mg of source naturals r lipoic acid as potent as 300mg of 300mgs of sans na rala? I want to finish my bottle of r lipoic before buying sans na rala. If not how much r lipoic would I have to dose to equal 300mg of na rala? The sodium makes the rala much more effective?

I have tried a bunch, slinshot, slinsane, glycobol... so far the most effective for me has been Glycobol.

I had good results with slin sane and glycobol, both get very good reviews and have had positive feedback over the years/

Is this only with high carb meals? What if keto, can you still follow the same?

Upon Waking/In The AM w/ a high carb meal: 300mg Na-R-ALA (and 1g agmatine)... +1g ALCAR about 30 minutes later
In the PM w/ a high carb meal: 300mg Na-R-ALA and 1g ALCAR 30 minutes later

Does Na-r-ala cause water retention? I've never heard that...

I've been using 300mg of Na-Rala every day of the week, 4-5 days of which are keto-style (30-50 carbs)......the slinsane I take only if I do all the carbs at once on the low carb days, if they are spread out I don't use the slinsane at all. Same with the anabeta, only pre-WO and/or with high carb days, not on ultra low carb days. But I have no negative effects when taking the Na-Rala on the keto-style days.....the PLCAR and ALCAR I don't think it matters what amount of carbs you take in.....

While things like Na-R-ALA are certainly worthwhile for other benefits, I don't believe any of the purported GDAs do much of anything. Either negligible effects or zero effects in healthy people. Flame away and I'll sit on my fat wallet.
