Good dosage of NA-R-ALA?

bb333 said:
Very, very good advice!
Thank you.

A few questions ...

ALA, has the same emivite, NA R-ALA?

tips assume NA R-ALA, before a meal, 20 minutes before or after a meal, after a meal?

600 mg of ALA, at the end of breakfast, to give me a sense of fullness.
Some time ago, I took 600 mg of ALA, after breakfast, with a few carbo, and after a few minutes I felt dizzy.

thank you

I'm not sure I understand your question man. When should you take ALA? You can take it before, during, or after a meal...insulin is significantly elevated for up to 90 minutes after

I thought na-r-ala was na insulin mimicker not a insulin "releasing agent" or am I understanding all wrong? How can na-r-ala aid in a recomp purpose?

Narala is an insulin sensitizer. Take it before carb heavy meals. GI doesn't matter as long as you're not injecting pure sugar.

Watch the fat because it sensitizes adipocytes to insulin as well.
 
Question: ala turns on ampk, but turns off mtor and a few other anabolic processes. Does leucine ingestion (or a leucine rich meal) ameliorate this?

It is always going to be a see-saw between AMPk and MTor. I wouldn't worry too much about it. You could drive yourself crazy trying to optimize everything at all times.

Excellent stack, my personal favorite.

300mg Na-R-ALA + 1g Agmatine + 1g ALCAR in the AM with a high carb meal.

300mg Na-R-ALA + 1g ALCAR in the PM with a high carb meal.

Only do the second option if you can afford it; otherwise, bump up the ALCAR dose to 2g for the first option and that will suffice.

sorry for the bump, but just wanna check, this stack would be all good with anabeta/abe and ara? Also, what you wrote here was 2 years ago, you would still do it as is now (timing/split/doses wouldnt be changed for any reason?)

Before choosing to go with na-r-ala i was considering berberine, but read it may hinder products like abe, ring any bells for you?

cheers
 
I actually use the same protocol listed above, and have for months. Running it with abe , Ara, and magnitropin and its been great.

I don't see the negative consequences of adding it to your stack
 
Yeah i suspect its all good, just wanna be totally sure there's no probs even if only in theory

wots your na-r-ala source? Looking at NP's 100gm bulk tub myself (oos at mo tho)
 
Yeah, NPs Na-RALA is good to go :).

Is the AM dose fasted 30 minutes before food or with food?

I tend to get some brain fog with ALCAR. Could it be because I have not been doing it with Na-R-ALA?

No. And if you dose ALCAR and Na-RALA together, make sure one of them is capped. If both are powders, dose one then dose the other 15-20 minutes later.

okay...so if following mrc's dosing protocol above, could you do the rala premeal, eat, then do the alcar post meal, or is alcar best on empty stomach too?

I would do Na-RALA 20 minutes pre-meal and ALCAR right before the meal.
 
as the others have said, NP bulk powder is good quality (geronova), but it out of stock at mo

edit: oops, was on cell b4, didnt see you orbit rep
 
I'm going to give the 300mg in the AM dosing protocol a shot during my winter bulk.
