How to Take It

Take it anytime

Absorption is modest either way; taking it with carbohydrate-containing meals improves uptake.

With food

ALA does better on an empty stomach, but something else in this bottle needs food. Taking the whole product with a meal is the better trade — an upset stomach is why most people stop.

On the label

Take one (1) capsule once or twice daily, preferably early in the day, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner. This product can be taken with or without food.

General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
