Alpha Lipoic Acid Benefits - Avoid The Scams
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
There’s more emerging news every day about the amazing health benefits of Alpha Lipoic Acid and it’s backed up by clinical studies. Benefits like:
- Nerve pain reduction
- Nerve regeneration
- Decrease in elevated glucose levels
- Improvement in insulin sensitivity
- Reduction of elevated cholesterol
- And it may even promote weight loss
So, it’s no wonder that people are rushing out to buy this amazing antioxidant. But beware of the Alpha Lipoic Acid SCAM!
Did you know there are 3 different forms of this antioxidant, but Only One Form has all of these amazing properties. Most supplement companies will sell you the wrong form, which isn’t effective, simply because it’s much cheaper for them to manufacture and they get a bigger profit margin.
So, Which form of Alpha Lipoic Acid or ALA do you need and Are you buying the correct one?
Alpha Lipoic Acid exists in THREE DIFFERENT FORMS but only One Form is EFFECTIVE.
The only form that is EFFECTIVE is ‘R’-Alpha Lipoic Acid.
This form is biologically active and exists in the natural form you find in your body or in food. This is the exact type of ALA that our body makes and requires.
It’s twice as potent as S-Alpha Lipoic Acid or RS-Alpha Lipoic Acid
And it’s both water and fat-soluble. This means that it can get into any and all cells, unlike other antioxidants like vitamin E, which can only get into fat-soluble cells, or vitamin C, which can only get into water-soluble cells.
R- Alpha Lipoic Acid is the only form of that anyone should take. Otherwise, you’re just wasting your money. To get the correct R-ALA, visit our website at: bit.ly/Nuphoria-Gold

Four months after a two month stint in the hospital with covid and a twice collapsed lung I had pain in my heart (or heart area) when I breathed in deeply. The pain wasn't lessening at all with time. My doctor gave me an IV of Alpha Lipoic Acid and I swear to god 90% of the pain was gone by that evening. Then the following week I got another IV and the pain was 99% gone. After the third IV the pain was completely gone and hasn't come back and that was a couple of months ago. I'm a believer. My doctors all believed that I was suffering from nerve damaged from the emergency chest tube that they put between my ribs and that my heart wasn't involved.
That's fantastic. I'm so happy that you were in a hospital that was that progressive and offered ALA IV infusions. Most don't. So happy to hear that you're on the road to recovery.
@@NerveDoctors Actually, the IV was done by my functional medicine doctor. She tried to get the hospital to give me various IVs like Vitamin C while I was there and she had a very hard time of it.
@D S can my primary care doctor give me this IV?
@D S can my primary care doctor give me this IV?
Yeah, they usually look at whatever is most convenient for them to say whether it is accurate or not. And they follow each other like lemmings so have to hope the first one got lucky and got it right. Good luck with every thing.
One thing I love about this doctor is, she responds to her followers. We greatly appreciate it 💪💞
I try. Thank you so much!
@@NerveDoctors I agree. She helped me also
I am taking aspirin can take R ALA
@@NerveDoctors where is the link
@@andreaandrea874 In the description, like she said.
Notice the information she is ommitting, DOSAGE AMOUNT which ranges BETWEEN 600-1800MG per day. She's directly selling HER expensive supplement. Cheaper versions like nutricost work equally well, Try it for 3 weeks and see for yourself. You're welcome.
I have suffered from feet nerve damage for years, and this educational information has been an eye opener. Thank you love!
I've taken ALA and I can tell you it works. My vision improves every time I take it.
Happy holidays, Brian. Thank you so much for sharing this information. Have a blessed and joyous holiday!!
Please, Sir, what brand do you use? I'm on chemo and hear this may help.
What's the brand you use?
I like when you ask brand..nobody responds!!@patriotares
I found you two days ago. You are a answer to prayer. Thank God and thank you.💞
I guess we can’t get away from the money grubbers who don’t care if you get better or not , just spend your money on junk. Thank you for your honest information.👍🙌keep up the good work
Thanks Doc for educating us on the scams! I am more educated now and will avoid those synthetic scammers! Nice Work!
This channel is life and has the best information on this topic online hands down
Thanks very much Dr, that's great information for some of us. I learnt of ALA only yesterday and it's effectiveness in helping with periphery nerve repair but never the difference. Now I know what to get when I go to the pharmacy. Bless you.
My heart-felt gratitude for watching this video before I opened my first purchase of ALA (from a reputable Australian brand) only to find that the active ingredients did not state "R" on the ingredient list.
Luckily, I kept the receipt and did not open. So, I ventured onto Amazon to purchase your brand "Nuphoria" only to find that it is completely sold out. There is another brand I will research before I buy. (Jarrow)
Thank you so much for caring enough to enlighten us poor sufferers - Life's tough enough having to deal with the pain let alone unwittigly giving money to unscrupulous shysters for nothing!!
I have been buying and supplementing with alpha lipoic acid since 2005. This is the first time these different forms of ALA have come to my attention. Better late than never.
I went to 5 stores to find R-ALA and not a single one referenced the letters S, SR or R, so I would say the manufactures are hiding something from us by not properly disclosing what is actually in their products.
I was amazed when i watched this video. Have been taking ALA for months now NOT FEELING DIFFERENT AT ALL. I suffer from very bad CRPS in my right knee which has caused me a great deal of neuropathy pain IM ACTUALLY FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE RIGHTNOW im ordering your product immediatly THANK YOU
Good morning. I'm so glad our video helped you. If you need more guidance, don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're happy to help get you on the right path. Blessings.
😮Thank you so much for educating us. I really didn't know that R Lipoic Acid is the real deal. Appreciate you so much. We need more Doc's like you.
Thank You Doctor for making me educated in this path of self study, self-awareness & self help.
You go lovely!! Stay as stress free as you can and embrace your healing journey with self love. (I do this and believe we are led by our guiding spirit) X
Your Vlogs are brilliant, for one you give crystal clear researched run downs am particularly on peripheral Neuropathy, and above all you are not an alarmist trying to sell something amid fear and confusion. This information about different types of ALA was godsend, as I had a hit a road block in the treatment of PN using ALA that was clearly not the R form of ALA. So thank you once again and I am now your viewer for good🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing your kind words, Asim. Blessings.
Will R ALA help with back pain caused by spinal stenosis etc.? I've had many injections and an ablation that left a huge dent in my hip area. They said the nerves will grow back but I don't think they have. Why don't doctors ever mention natural supplements like you have? It's always about keeping the patient “sick” and the money made from that. I bought what you suggested for my husband who has post-hermetic neuralgia from shingles. His doctor thought it was cancer! I cannot wait to see how he does. I also ordered him L-lysine, olive leaf extract, Vit B complex, Vit D. It's a horrible pain. I even researched the New England Journal of medicine and they are “ trying” to find a cure for various types of pain. Not one word about anything natural! Somehow I'm not surprised. God bless you and your family! Thank you!
You are a LIFE SAVER!! We need more doctors like you!! Keep up the good work and GOD BLESS YOU AND YR FAMILY!!!!
Thank you so much. You as well!
Six months ago I found this video. I found to be very informative and I bought ALA from Amazon. It took some time to heal my nerves just like you said in video. Today after following your protocol I am at 98% recovered from neuropathy. The nerves damage I had was from a fall by accident in my back yard. I like to thank you so much for your efforts in putting out this videos and sharing your knowledge with people. Very grateful.
WOO HOO! WAY TO GO, TIEL. So happy that you took a proactive approach to your health and look how it paid off. You should be extremely proud of yourself. Blessings.
Tiel Roxy you can also take unfortified nutritional yeast and get your B vitamins over time will heal the mylan sheath covering it does work well it did for me
Were you using the Nuphoria-Gold that the good doctors are marketing?
That is wonderful what name brand did you get off of Amazon?
@@kuljim2602 Yes, I did it for 6 Months and I am very happy with the results. Just like she said in the video, it takes time it will not happen in a week or two,but I felt the progress in my hand than in my fingers.
I was about to buy ALA not knowing there's a huge difference between R ALA and S ALA. Thanks so much for saving us from those pharmaceutical predators. Blessings!
Thanks for bringing this to light as I'm now aware that I've been duped....again.
Wow!! I’ve learnt something today! Thankyou for your Honesty and Sincerity! Very much appreciated Hallelujah 🙏
Thank you. Truly appreciate it!
Hi Doc. I just found you on YT. All I can say is WOW!!!. The way you explain, illustrate and break down things. Amazing. Thank you.
Awww! Thank you so very much. I'm so glad you find it helpful. Let me know if you have any questions. We're very happy to give guidance. Blessings.
@The Nerve Doctors - Neuropathy Pain Treatment what is the name of the product you recommend please?
Thanks Doctor. I just found out about this stuff from Dr. Allen last night. I would’ve went straight to Amazon to get anything. Then you showed up in my recommendations this morning with a whole lecture on the right kind. I appreciate you. Saved me time and money. I will buy the one from the link you provided in your description.
Just found your channel a couple months ago. I bought your Nuphoria Max Strength. Excellent product. I personally like the fact there aren’t a lot of filler ingredients, you get a good B vitamin RDA and most importantly it actually works. Not the cheapest but the results are priceless. Thank you
I’ve been doing a lot of research recently and learned that the R Alpha Lipoic Acid is the authentic form . I’m impressed with your videos. Thank you.😢
Thank you for a very educational video. I've learned more from this video than the years of seeing the neurologist.
Thank you for taking the time to educate those of us who really could use some help with our discomfort!! Bless you.
I'm just seeing this because I've been researching neuropathy pain in my husband's feet since his DX od Rhabdomylosis last June. They put him on Gabapentin and although it seems to help his pain, I don't want him on it long term after watching your video about how it can cause neuropathy as well! I am glad you have a link to purchase this product because I can't find it in my own research. Thank you for all this information you provide free of charge. God bless you.
Thanks for the education! We need more people like you .
Thank you so much, Raymond. We enjoy making a difference. Blessings.
Dr. Eric Berg on CZcams.
Thank you for this. A CZcams doctor that I recently learned about ALA From actually suggested a product that is the rs type. I’m very thankful I came across your video prior to purchasing. I’m 62 and the myopathy in my feet started after a severe case of covid in 2021 and has gradually gotten worse.
Did you happen to take antibiotics while on Covid? It's possible the Antibiotics left you wiht Nerve Damage. If so what antibiotics did you consume?
@@protectorofthetruth8472 no I did not and do not use pharmaceuticals of any kind and I haven’t been to a doctor for twenty years.
I think multi prescriptions and increasing strengths of anti biotic may have caused my neuropathy symptoms. They were necessary to stop cellulitis - stop infection spreading to my blood or bones, so I am thankful the treatment succeeded. @@protectorofthetruth8472 I
Interesting. My dad's neuropathy started after he got the booster. He can barely lift his arms now.
My neuropathy originated from contracting a mosquito borne virus which triggered Epstein Barr Virus. Then I contracted Covid in early 2020 (loss of taste/smell) which I am sure made my pain worse. However, the pain has lessened due to my changing jobs. (I sit at a desk now) .. Every evening I do Yin Yoga & eat a very clean diet. I have good days and bad days depending on my stress levels. Also, look into Qigong. That has an amazing effect on healing the body too.
Thank you Dr. Monteiro for the information- I have post Herpatic Neuralgia on my hand ( bad pain). I received my Gold Nupphoria today!! So happy. This along with intensive ATP and Acupuncture is sure to help me get back to normal! Thank you for the insight and the shipment - 2 month supply😀
Hi, Sharee Harms. I am so glad to hear that! We look forward to hearing from you and helping you on your journey!😊
Very very good information, which I didn't know. Thanks. Started learning a lot from your previous videos.
Well done and thank you for telling us this important information. Most people have no idea about chirality and the R and S structural configurations of groups of molecules in organic chemistry. It's the difference between a biologically active and an inactive product.
That is correct. Thank you so much for acknowledging that. Blessings.
Please tell us where we can get it from.food and quantities of food
Thank you Doctor. I learned a lot from you. More than 10 years ago, I had a flu that lasted for more than two weeks and self medicated with antibiotic. I lost all my muscles and was diagnosed with Miller Fisher Syndrome which was treated with 5 nights of Immunoglobulin vaccine thru IV. My neuro doctor explained that my own immune system attacked my nerves instead of attacking the virus. The sheet that covers my nerves was damaged by my own immune system. I think I have an autoimmune disorder.
Excellent job explaining this to us. Thank you so much!
thank you for the informative video, I had no idea and was using the wrong product. I have now ordered your product and I've subscribed. Most people aren't aware of the differences.
Thank you for your video. I started taking ALA based on another CZcams channel promoting the benefits or ALA, but there was never any mention that there were two types of ALA on the market, R-ALA and S-ALA. So, being naïve, I went out and bought the cheapest version there was which was RS-ALA. I'm finishing up the first bottle now and had ordered another bottle to continue on, thinking that it might take several months to be able to see a difference. Thanks to your video I now know that I have been wasting my money, and I returned the other bottle I had bought too. Now on the hunt for the R-ALA, (Real-Alpha Lipoic Acid).
Hi Alan Smart,
I'm glad you found our video informative. We do not carry a stand-alone R-ALA supplement. Because, in our vast experience we've found that when a person has moderate to severe PN or if they've had it for longer than 2 years, R-ALA, by itself won't get them across the finish line. So, we created our nerve support formula with the proper amount of R-ALA (600 mg) along with all of the other critical nutrients for the nerves as outlined in clinical studies. You can find our formula, Nuphoria cm gold and its listed ingredients at healmynerves.com/collections/our-products/products/nuphoria-cm-maximum-strength?
If you'd like to learn more about the critical nutrients for nerve repair, watch this video: • Vital nutrients for nerve repair: czcams.com/video/wPruq49-ksU/video.html
I learned about ALA just recently and was just about ready to order it from Amazon. I have neuropathy in both feet. I noticed in researching the products on Amazon that there were R-ALA, S-ALA, and RS-ALA and was very confused about that. SO, thank you for such a detailed explanation about which product is the best. I am thankful I came across your video before I put in my order. Blessings!!!
Well put!
Thanks for explaining the difference...geeze
Ahhh!Ty,Ty I literally just learned of this from Dr.Mandela on You Tube and was just about to order,and then your video popped up.Look at God.❤
@@NerveDoctors Can you recommend a good brand of R ALA? I'm trying to order online and I can' see the ingredients.
@@bobtillman5769 I’ve been taking Life extension brand for many years. I’ve had severe PN from chemo for years. Recently I found out I was low on B12 so starting that I’m even better.
I just found your channel and can’t tell you how much I’ve learned so far! Thank you so very much for sharing this amazing information!🙏
You are so welcome!
Did not know any of this information at all! I am so extremely happy and grateful to have stumbled onto this video!
Thank You and God bless you!!
Hi, Donna P.C. I'm so glad the video was helpful! Thank you so much for watching!
Omw I am going to check mine now! I have been taking mine for months now and cannot under stand why my leg and foot is not improving after my op 11 months ago.
Thank you so much doctor you are truly an angel ❤
I'm truly happy to help. Now, here are a few things to consider. If you have been using R-ALA with minimal results, then you'll need to complex it with these vitamins B6 (Pyridoxal 5 Phosphate), Benfotiamine(B1) and methylcobalamin (B12). That should make a significant difference. Also, having patience is the key. Nerves are the slowest healing tissues in the body and it can take anywhere from 8 months to 2 years to fully recover. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Blessings.
@@NerveDoctors please advice about B6, it is said that it is toxic when it is out of range, my confusion is when it is water soluble how can it be the most toxic vitamin in B....what is the recommended dose per day for B6... I have neuropathy and colitis both
The same here
@@sherrihinton2885 do u have colitis ?
@@nageshnimbalkar4091 is sold in two pyradoxine forms, as the hydrochloride salt - HCl, which is, cheap and not good or the -5 phosphate, P5P for short which is good.
Great information, I did not know the difference - I got rid of my Type 2 diabetes over 10 years ago from Doctor Fung and the neuropathy is just about gone ... you are a true blessing... thank you
You are so welcome and CONGRATULATIONS! Job well done young 'Sky Walker'.
Dr Fung saved my life. He is awesome!!!
What did you use to get rid of it?
@@DMWB57 where is Dr. Fung located?
I believe Dr. Fung is based in Canada. He has many videos on CZcams and his book(s) are sold in bookstores, Amazon, etc.
I had no clue that there is a difference. I truly thank you for the information. I need to get your book.
Very smart and informative. God Bless you for speaking the truth. As I am dealing with neuropathy now, and have recently heard of ALA , I am now more educated...thank you.
Thank you for a very informative video clip. (And you got to the point quickly which is always a blessing!)
I unfortunately did buy ALA R+S (without seeing this first), for possible insulin sensitivity - and will have no problem dumping them if there is no obvious benefit.
So surely the manufacturers must provide some benefits or they'd only have single non-repeated orders?
most valuable presentation I’ve ever seen for my neuropathy. I actually have purchased alpha Lipoic acid without the R. I will find it with the R. Thanks again.
Hi Curtis. I'm so glad this video was helpful for you. The brand that I typically recommend for my patients who need just the 'R-ALA is Immunovites (link: amzn.to/3Dy0PdG). We have no affiliation with this company. They simply put out an excellent quality of R-ALA. Blessings.
Tristemente acabo de recibir mi ALA sin "R" . 🙏 Agradezco enormemente que compartan su conocimiento sobre todo cuando se trata de la salud.
@@NerveDoctors Thank you for the video and information. The 'Immunovites' product seems to be NA-R-ALA. Is the the same or different from R-ALA? Is it better? Thank you, Doctor. 🙏
@@marthasandoval6760 😮
So if I have the ALA that consists of both S-ALA and R-ALA I should throw it in the trash?
Wonderful presentation, very informative. Thank you so much.
Thanks for being straight and informative. 😊
I had yet to learn about this! But recently, I read in a doctoral thesis that when you gave alpha lipoic acid (it didn't mention anything about R-, S- or RS ALA) to a group of patients in a dose of 600 mg daily, they recovered within three months from their dilemma. But now that I have listened to this video, I realize how important it is to choose the non-synthetic tablet, which was probably meant in the experiment I referred to above. I have suffered from what I initially called Morton's syndrome, which may actually be neuropathy, although a recent blood test shows that I do not have diabetes. When I thought I had neuropathy, I bought alpha lipoic acid tablets (without an R in front of ALA), and they have made no difference either, which is explained by your explanation. Outstanding presentation and analysis, for which I thank you very much! ❤🙏
PS I saw another article that mentioned that they also tried giving 600 mg of R ALA to patients suffering from Alzheimer's. However, I don't know how the tests turned out, as I didn't get access to the site, which I don't want to pay for (I'm just an ordinary but curious person!) DS
Thank you so much for the advice I'm in a lot of pain from my going downy legs burning feet numbness tingling pins and needles
Did you found any relieve with this Alpha Lipoic Acid ?@@tracyreddy1085
I was in a bad ATV accident on 3/5. I had a concussion and a deep gash in my scalp that required 6 staples which is healing well. Blessedly, I had no broken bones. However, I have deep internal bruising and now I have stabbing pain as my nerves are "waking up", even in my ears. Even my hair follicles hurt! I believe your video is a timely godsend! I need to order your brand of R- alpha lipoic acid and also take the Benfotiamine form of vitamin B-1. God bless you and thank you for your videos!!
Keeping you covered in prayer and wishing you a complete and speedy recovery. Blessings.
@@NerveDoctors God bless you!!
Thank you so much.
Make sure they take a good look at your spine. Thirty years ago I hit something in a field that sent me off the front of a Banshee topped out, somewhere around 60-70mph. I only remember shifting in to 6th... and then ambulance lights. I broke the face guard on my helmet. I had a concussion, a small chunk of flesh missing from my leg, broken and dislocated collar bone. What I just found out 2 years ago is that I have a spinal compression injury between my shoulder blades. It's really been wreaking havoc on me for the last few years. I have no money or insurance so I can't do anything about it. Had I known about the injury then, or even 5 years ago when I still had insurance, it could have been fixed.
This response is meant to the person before me (F@Cantthinkofahandle117 ?)

Thank you for the thorough teaching on the proper form of ALA….. and that the other forms simply don’t work. It’s sad that there are so many incomplete teachings on the proper form of nutrients by supposedly qualified people. It pays to do your research
So glad to have seen this video. Learned so much from it. I ordered the the R- Alpha Lipoic Acid from them, but haven’t received it yet. So I can’t tell you what it’s like till then. They seem to be very very good. Hope it arrives soon.
Thank you for your videos. Am 41 and just spent 2,5 months in hospital due to cellulitis and sepsis. I was in coma for almost 2 weeks. When I wake up I realized that I don't have any feelings in both my legs, my foots are completely numb. I know for my surgeon that they was fighting with infection, high blood temperature but also high blood sugar(Am diabetic) Neurologist diagnosed me with diabetic neuropathy. I was fully mobile before the hospital now I can barely walk. Am back home now and just received letter from physiotherapy hospital that I will have to wait 18 weeks for the appointment so your videos are the only thing that I have to help me get back on my feet 😊😊😊
OMGosh that’s horrible! How are you doing now!? Did you get some ALA? I’ve been reading a lot about it combined with benfotimine (spelling?), and it’s supposed to work synergistic miracles. Please let us know how your legs and feet are doing! (I know how difficult recovery from coma can be - I was in a coma for 10 days)….. ❤
@@MariaWalker-qo3vi Am on Nuphoria Gold since over a month and I can feel the difference. I have started moving much more around the house and pain is more manageable. Still struggling with a foot drop but I managed to get an appointment with a private neurologist so am hoping to get some answers from him. I also had an appointment with a private physiotherapist and she believes that I have not been diagnosed and managed properly at the hospital That is why she referred me to a neurologist so proper tests can be done to understand what exactly caused a food drop and nerves damage. Thank you for your message 😊
Am sorry to hear you was in coma, hope you feeling better now.
@@sylazytowska6857 sweet of you to say that. I’m much better now. But it’s been 14 years. Had to do a deep dive into natural cures - I prob wouldn’t be alright if I hadn’t. Dr Eric Berg is another good source of info, but I’ll bet you know that already. Keep us posted on your recovery. I’m very interested. ❤️

Thanks very much for the important and detailed info that I have been looking for.
Wow, I'm so glad I stumbled on to this video! Thanks so much for clarifying this info on alpha lipoic acid. I didn't know this before.
I have been a little confused why ALA helped me greatly with my inflammation in the past, but now (using a different brand) it makes my inflammation worse. Thank you.
So sorry that you're experiencing this. My guess is the new brand probably isn't the same quality as possibly the old brand. A good quality brand of R-ALA I recommend is: Immunovites. Here's the link: amzn.to/3OY5IPC
My uncle leg is turning black from nerves..i m glad i saw this video because i started giving him ala with no R..his foot doctor is no helping him 😢 thank you for helping us..i will give and update❤

Thank you for clarifying this issue. I will be looking for the R-Alpha Lipoic Acid, in the future. I am very grateful for stumbling across your video.
I've Being having peripheral nerve pain with edema for about 2years now, and then recently I decided to go see a doctor after the symptoms became worse.I was prescribed amitriptyline to which I took to no effect, then just today I was prescribed pregaballin for the pain .Before taking the drugs I did some online research and I found that this drug has so many bad reviews and somehow I stumbled on this video and I'm so happy I did,I love how you simplified everything and made it so easy to understand, I will be getting the R ALA for my nerve pain for sure.
Hi Kelly. I'm so glad you found our channel. Let me guide you. Based on the little bit you described, you are going to need more than just R-ALA. You will need all of the other critical nutrients for nerve repair. Watch these 2 videos where I cover this:

I can assure you Pregabalin is the worse most evil drug that I ever have taken and I have take a lot. It affected so much my cognition that some people thought I was getting dementia . I was living in a kind of parallel reality, my short term memory completely gone. Avoid it at all costs.
THANK YOU Doctor for the wonderful Information on this subject, VERY helpful on buying ALA.........God Bless !
Sad to say I did not know but I suspected it. Thank for bringing this to light.
Thanks for the great info. Never knew there was a difference
And worse that there are companies trying to fool people :(
Thanks! I did a lot of research and this is the most complete video I could find about alpha lipoic acid. And it's the only video I found that differentiates between the types of alpha lipoic acids that exist and teaches how to recognize the ideal. Thank you one more time!
Good morning, Silvanaldo. You are so very welcome. So glad it was especially useful. That truly makes us happy. Have a great weekend!

Wow ! I’m checking my bottle now and I have a feeling it’s fake. Thank you doctor.
Hi Richard. You're so welcome. Let me know if I can give you any further guidance. Blessings.
Thank you for caring and sharing! God bless you ❤
Thank you for these precisions,so important!❤
I was diagnosed with Sural neuropathy about 10 years ago and was told there is no cure. It started in my little toe and slowly spread to both feet. Not sure if Sural neuropathy is the same as peripheral neuropathy. I am taking most of the supplements you recommend. I noticed it got worse after having the covid vaccines and i have been so scared of it getting to the point of losing my independence so am very grateful to find your videos. I am not so scared now that i can see there is hope for healing. Thankyou so much for the work you do to help all of us who can't rely on our GP's. Your guidance is so very appreciated.
As long as the sural nerve does not have an active compression on it, this should help
@@NerveDoctorsHi Dr Monteiro, how will i know if the sural nerve has an active compression on it and what is the difference between Sural Neuropathy and Peripheral Neuropathy? I would really value your knowledge on this.
The old adage. You get ehat you pay for. Thank you Doctor.I was just about to order when I saw your article. You have saved me from buying the wrong product. Thank you
You are so welcome.
Hi Dr.Valerie , thank you so much for this valuable information. As you said, it’s very popular, even some pharmacists advise it. I’ve been taking it for almost 2 months now, and I have seen no improvement , now I know why. I just checked the label. There is no R there. Thank you so much and God bless you 🙏
Thank you very much. Reading a therapeutic Proposal from clinic in Ecuador. Now I can go back to the doctor and discuss your information and the proposal before making a decision. Suffer from post surgery on disk between C4-C5 vertebra. The post nerve pain and weakening of my right shoulder and arm, are barely tolerable 2 years later.
I am disgusted with Solgar, as they don’t identify the source . I live in South Africa and I can’t find an honest product. Thank you for the info.
Hi Sheila. You are so very welcome. Solgar was once an outstanding supplement company, but I too have been quite disappointed with their quality over the past few years. Have a great week.
That surprises me Solgar is a very reputable company. The Blue bonnet company is all of solgars ex staff they wanted to use cheaper ingredients Solgar said no so Blue bonnet uses cheaper ingredients
Hi please let me know if you found the right product, I live in CT, South Africa
I also need a good source in SA
Solgar Was Sold To The Big Conglomerate NESTLE !
just bought the S alpha lipoic acid in the store yesterday unbeknowing and just threw it in the trash Dont think they would give me a refund when i tell them it is synthetic. Wish i had seen your video yesterday, thanks for the info! New subscriber!
Hi Marcelina. If you didn't open it and have the receipt, they usually take it back. I'm so sorry you had to find out a day late but at least now you know. Here's a brand that is a good quality that I recommend. I'm in no way affiliated with this company. Here's the link: amzn.to/3Dy0PdG
And thank you so much for subscribing. Have a wonderful day. Blessings.
It's a great job educating the needs u deserve good health and wealth
I am so glad to have found your channel, my husband has been struggling with PN for so long and we are shocked at how little his doctors actually know, my husband is on not one but four of the bad drugs you talk about, those being cymbalta, lorazepam, amitriptyline and lyrica, UGH! His doctors told him these would help him with the pain. Now, he wants to get off of them. I just looked at the ALA bottle and there is no R, so upset, just more money wasted. Thank you for all of your help, we are binge watching your videos, God bless you for your help with this.
Such a great video, doc. Thank you so much for this. One question though, is it true that taking R-ALA can cause severe hair loss? I've read a couple of reviews from people who started to develop severe hair loss around 3 months after they began taking R-ALA.
Thanks!
You're very welcome. R-ALA does not cause hair loss. On the contrary, clinical research has shown that it can slow down a receding hairline and facilitate new hair growth by blocking enzymes that threaten our hair roots in general. Typically, what happens with hair loss is that a person has an underactive thyroid problem that has gone undetected or they are deficient in minerals and trace minerals. Thanks for the great question. Blessings.
@@NerveDoctors pltell brand name R Ala
Tks
Amazon NOW brand Alpha Lipoic Acid 600 mg free Radical Scavenger is what I have been taking. There is no R. But does the RS you speak of mean Radical Scavenger?
@@rendagolden2496 No. You clearly haven't studied organic chemistry. Read up on the meaning "levorotatory", "racemic", and "dextrorotatory" in the context of organic chemical structures. Even the racemic form is helpful but the dextrorotatary form is to be preferred.
@@NerveDoctors Vit E : INTERESTING FACT …
My hair was falling out excessively for YEARS.
Then a blood test showed super high levels of Vit E.
So I stopped taking the Vit E
and Guess What …. ?
WITHIN 4 DAYS (4 days!)
my hair stopped falling out !
(I took it for decades 🙁)
My understanding was that R ALA is very unstable…..thus….S ALA is added for longer stability….. now I am learning that R ALA is best…..it is so frustrating that there is so much misinformation to make sense out off. Thank you for this video 😊
Hi Danuse. I know it's definitely enough to make your head spin. So, your understanding is correct. However, they began to learn through further research that although the 'S' enantiomer stabilized it, it could actually deactivate the activity of the natural 'R' form. Now a molecule of sodium is used to stabilize the the R-ALA. Anytime you see the word stabilized after R-ALA on the ingredient label or if it says Na R-ALA it means it's been stabilized with sodium. Hope this clears it up for you. Blessings.
@@NerveDoctors thank you for taking time to reply and further explain. I certainly got much better information from your amazing video. 🙏
Thanks for all your help and may God bless you 🙏
Thank You for this Great explanation! I didn't know there was different forms. Great info!
Dr. Monteiro, I am obviously not the only one who deems you to be a most concerned and benevolent doctor, who cares about the quality of your work and how you relay the topics to your public. We love and appreciate you.
She's got you fooled!
I bought NA-R alpha lipolic acid 600mg from Immunovites. Is this the R you recommended?
Thank you
I finished the whole bottle of Nuphoria and got no relief, I was so hopeful, can't afford to try anymore, Thanks for the opportunity!
Please tell more people. They are really good at scamming people!
Like one of the above comments, I would talk to your doctor about getting ALA IV! It would be worth a try.
Wow! I did not know this. Thank you so much for the clarification.
Thank you for this video! I have never heard this helpful information anywhere before!
dave varga So glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for R ALA video warning on scams. Had just finished viewing a video talking of studies showing 600 mgs of al helped neuropathy- without mentioning the forms. Because I routinely require steroids for my genetic copd, and because of chemo & other things, neuropathy has entered my life. Your hope in this area is not only informative, but inspirational, and this is how true help always starts to come. God bless you all for your inspiration
I just received 2 months of your ALA with essence. I was told that essence will make it work faster and better? Is this true ? It sounds strange but I was told I should notice some improvement within a month. I was also informed by others that I can order this on Amazon. Is this true or not ? Please respond as I have in the past requested info and haven’t received any feedback. I have been suffering from neuropathy for at least 10 yrs. I am prediabetic and my Dr. Is from the Mass General in Boston who I Just got rid of because he is worthless. He did nothing for me for 20 yrs.Stay away from Anthony Granfone in Boston. Please respond to my request. Al DePierro
I was told that I should take 2 capsules for breakfast and 3 essence, then lunch 2 capsules of ALA then dinner 3 capsules of essence. That’s atotal of 10 capsules a day. Is that correct ? Sounds like a lot. Please inform.
I bought 2 bottles of a cheaper brand that only listed Alpha Lipoic Acid. Your video definitely surprised me! Thank you for the heads-up video. Will be purchasing your brand soon. Best regards!
Hi Claudia. I'm glad that you found our video helpful. We do not make a stand-alone R-ALA. We do however use R-ALA in our Neuropathy formula, Nuphoria cm Gold. If you're looking for a complete formula here's the website: www.healmynerves.com. If all you would like is the stand-alone R-ALA, this is the brand that I recommend: amzn.to/3Dy0PdG
We have no affiliation with this company. I recommend them because they're a good quality R-ALA and they're doing the manufacturing properly to maintain the integrity of the R-ALA. Let me know if you have any questions. Have a wonderful weekend. Blessings.
@@NerveDoctorsthis product is out of stock also a few others you recommend are out of stock to 😒🇬🇧
I did the same... I purchased two bottles of alpha lipoic acid, at a lower more affordable price. But now I'm going to return the unopened one and purchase the correct one.
I was just made aware of the super vitamin c for nerves, inflammation, and collagen making...and here this pops up. I have had tingling and numbness in hands, legs, arms, ..I'm not diabetic have near perfect labwork, yet suffer with either a pinched nerve or nerve damage. I will try this . Thank you Ms. Lady!
My doctor told me about this product years ago. It’s a great product. Thank you for very much for letting us know.
Hello Doctor! My husband ordered ALA and on the side of the bottle it says...CL Alpha Acid 600mg...but I did not hear you mention the "CL" at all. Is this the wrong ALA also? Please tell us if this something harmful or worthless, because we don't want to waste time and $$$ on useless trifles! Thank you for your time and your informative videos. Keep up the excellent work! kristi
Hi Kristi. Hmmm....CL-ALA. Well, you've completely stumped me. In all my research, I've never seen a version called CL-ALA. I'm familiar with a DL enantiomer. Do me a favor, snap a picture of the front label and the back label that has the 'Supplement Facts' panel and send it to my email at: info@nuphoria.com. I'll take a look at it. Blessings.
Good day Dr 🙂! This is my first time watching your video. Thanks for the info on R-ALA. I already have the synthetic one and have been taking it. My last dose was yesterday. I did purchase the R-ALA last week but the cost was under $50.00. Any suggestions on what should I do now? I gave your video a like 👍🏾. Thanks for your help 🙂!
Hi Fayth-Anna. That's a beautiful name. Yay, to getting the right form of ALA. For R-ALA you want to take 300 mg twice per day. If you have a sensitive stomach, then always take it with food or a snack, otherwise it can cause some stomach upset. If you tell me what your symptoms are I can give you better guidance. If you prefer a private forum, feel free to email me at: info@nuphoria.com with your symptoms. Tell me how long you've had it and how bad the symptoms get. Blessings. P.S....thanks so much for liking our video. It really helps us.
@@NerveDoctors thanks for replying so promptly and your sentiment re my name.
My symptoms are tingling at the top of my fingers and cold hands and feet mostly the tips. I mainly take it as an antioxidant. The brand that I purchased only have 100mg per capsules. I'm not in the 🇺🇲.
fayth there are a number of products that are the correct STABALIZED R-Lipoic Acid but like you noticed, the dosage is not enough. I have been taking this for years now and I notice a difference if I run out. I take 300mg twice a day along with l-carnitine 500 mg twice a day. I wish I could take more (studies show 600 mg as the min.) but its just too expensive. I pay about 40.00 for a 60 day supply at 600mg daily and I live in the US. I am hoping to get to a point where it is healed but I am sure it will take years (low inflammation type diet/only whole food).
@@cindy4678 thanks for sharing your journey. I haven't seen much changes so I will increase the dosage I'm taking. But as you pointed out it's way too pricey. Thanks again for sharing 🙂
@@cindy4678 where did you order it from I have a hard time finding it
You both provide such good information!! I love your videos!!
My question is what dosages of R-Alpha Lipoic Acid and B1 should I take. It’s a struggle to keep my A1C below 7. I have some nerve pain in my feet but not super bad. I’m 79 and in very good heath. I’m 85% vegan (do eggs four times a week along with salmon 4 times a month). I’m an avid golfer and bowler and in the gym 3 times a week. I’ve shared your channel with many of my golf and bowling buddies.
600mg
🔺REDUCE/REVERSE Diabetes and/or Neuropathy…
🌈 BERBERINE 900-2000 mg split dosage after meals to substitute for metformin*. ALWAYS TAKE w CINNAMON…
I take 300mg benfotiamine and 2000 mg of organic cinnamon 2-3 times daily. Do this for 8 weeks and then reduce to once daily.
If numbers are still high after 2-3 weeks, repeat treatment. My glucose numbers were upper 200s and low 300s. Now my numbers are 65-140. It’s all natural and much healthier without side effects.
Two pure supplements that I take to REVERSE Neuropathy:
Benfotiamine (B1) 300mg x 3
R-alpha lipoic acid 300mg x 2
The specific forms given above are most bioavailable so the most effective… other forms are ineffective and interfere with recovery.
R-alpha lipoic acid is the “real“ product. S-alpha lipoic acid is synthetic and not effective. If combined, the synthetic cancels the effects of the real stuff! If no letter is given before the phrase “alpha lipoic acid“ it is synthetic and does not work.
*For those unaware, metformin causes neuropathy.
The difference between berberine and dihydroberberine (DHB) is that DHB is absorbed at five times the rate of regular berberine. However, it is quite costly, but your DHB intake can be 1/5-1/6 of your regular berberine intake. DHB is very hard to get and may not be available in doses to be taken 2-3 times daily.
After much research and comparison for purity of product without unneeded or unwanted ingredients, I recommend the following from Amazon… Order using subscriptions so you receive discounts when ordering items in the same month.
a.co/d/iyRnxKd
Berberine
a.co/d/cX6Rk1Y
Cinnamon
a.co/d/ftxKNCR
R-lipoic acid
a.co/d/ftxKNCR
Benfotiamine
However, it would seem that the combination provided by the nerve doctors working synergistically is actually a better deal than separate items.
I was looking for this exact info. Thank you soooo much. My mom is about to go buy ALA and I found this just in time. I hope she listens to me. Parents have a hard time learning from their kids. Especially when they've raised you to believe your dumb but you've known they were tripping your entire life. shame😔🥴🥰
(LOL...your comment is so on point about parents) So glad it has helped. If your mom has any questions feel free to refer her to this channel and I will gladly answer any questions for either one of you. Blessings.
@@NerveDoctors that's very kind of you . She is a very intelligent woman and almost as strong willed as I am. Age is getting on her but at 83 she is seeming like she's going to be around another 20 years. I can't imagine life without her. Hmm.
I really admire your accomplishments. I look forward to more videos and getting familiar with your work. I'm also learning for my own sake.
Thanks again! 😉
@@NerveDoctors May Allah reward you well, Doctor. I follow you from Morocco. Sorry, I don't know English. I rely on google for translation. I took alpha lipoic acid after Dr. Berg talked about it in one of his videos and advised him to take benfotiamine and tocotrionols with him, but he did not advise taking 900 mg. I am from pain strength doubled the amount. I ordered it from iherb and the pain actually stopped and I recovered and the problem came back after six months but this time the disaster happened I forgot to mention I visited the ear specialist after the dose and after the examination found that the ear crystals came out of their place and I lost my balance and after the taming session thank God it improved
Thank you very much, dear madam. Much love and appreciation to you from Morocco🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
OMG Im so happy I saw your vid before heading down to get some R Alpha Lipoic Acid. Thank you, liked and subscribed 🙏
Thank you for the information. It is highly appreciated
Yes, I knew about R-alpha lipoic acid. I learned the hard way-after purchasing ALA. I’ve been taking the “R” version for a couple of months now.
Have you seen a difference?
Have you noticed any difference taking it?
what brand did you use
Hi, Karen. We are so sorry that you went through that, but we glad you were able to get the right type of R-alpha lipoic acid. Thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you for this info! My mom is 78 and has had idiopathic neuropathy for about 9 hrs. She’s not diabetic, has had 5 spinal surgeries and has tried so many products trying to help. She really struggles with this, do you think there’s hope with the R-ALA after 9 years? Thank you in advance! ♥️
Hi Jodi. ABSOLUTELY! We've had peripheral neuropathy patients come to us that had been suffering for 20 years and were able to turn their cases around. Now, given the fact that your mom has had this for 9 years, she will need more in addition to R-ALA. She's going to need Benfotiamine, Pyridoxal 5 Phosphate, Methylcobalamin, Acetyl L Carnitine and L-citrulline. You don't have to buy these separately. You can usually get them in 1 or 2 nerve support formulas. You must make sure, though that they're in the right amounts, otherwise it won't work. Watch my video: The Right Dose. Here's the link: czcams.com/video/dKMPMPJM4JY/video.html
Let me know if you have any other questions. I'm happy to help. Blessings.
Thank you so much for your reply! We ordered your Gold formula for her and she received it today. When I first read your comment, I thought these were extra products she needed in addition to yours, but if I understand correctly, these are covered in your product right?
She’ll start it tomorrow and praying with all my might that it makes a difference for her like it did your mom. Blessings to you also! 🙏♥️
I have been using Alapha Lipoic Acid for about 10yrs after reversing my diabetic . I never knew it had different types . It just say alpha liopic acid.I would like to know if I am using the right stuff. It's 200mg I am using.
