> Does anyone here take Alpha Lipoic Acid?
Yes.
>If so, why do you take it?
It's one of the best antioxidants around, all by itself. It is both lipid and water soluble (depending on its level of protonation), and helps entend the usefulness of vitamins C and E.
> Do you think it is helping you and, if so, in what way?
General health, but it may contribute to better cognitive functioning and memory retrieval. It's also stimulating.
> Do you take it in the morning, at night, or throughout the day? Thanks.
Morning only, due to stimulating effect. Your body may vary.
