Dear Listfriends, FWIW, Intelihealth has an article on alpha-lipoic acid that is of interest to me, as a number of people with PD, including several of my clients, report neuropathy. ALA's property of having both fat- and water-solubility is potentially of value, also its implications in treatment of Alzheimer's. I am following this research closely, in the hope that ALA may prove to be beneficial in treating PD.
