Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

I take it in the evenings and it helps tremendously with foot pains and cramping during the night. Because of its antioxidant effects, it’s an approved * in germany for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy.

This seems to be a good quality ala blend so far. Works as good as the brand i first bought for much more money at walgreens. Great price, fast shipping.

Ala is found in small amounts in foods such as spinach, broccoli, and red meat. Packaging is recyclable, and reusable.

Packaging/appearance


The packaging is recyclable, and reusable - the blue bottle is sturdy and pretty!

Competitiveness


This works as good as the brand i first bought for much more money at walgreens.


I previously used berberine from another company which was counterproductive, my blood sugar went up instead of coming down!


I figured that using a 600mg straight ala would be much cheaper and still equivalent to the 300mg r-ala i had been taking for years.


I switched from r-ala to just plain ala about a year ago because of the rising cost of r-ala.
