ALA: Please show me some studies.
Well, for some reason I can't access medline or sciencedirect. Anyhow I am behind the times here, and was wondering if anyone has any studies that support claims of ALA increasing insuling sensitivity. The only studies I have come accoss showed that ALA has increased insulin sensitivity in either non-exercising elderly diabetics or rats at a dose of 3000mg. This is not to go against the grain (although most supplements are really just pseudoscience), but are there any studies to back this claim up that can be applied to bodybuilders?
