Very safe,helps some: One study found that 1800 mg of Alpha lipoic acid a day combined with a reduced-calorie diet resulted in more weight loss than diet alone- see http://www.Bastyrcenter.Org/content/view/2351/ lipoic acid naturally occurs in our bodies ; is very safe (some in the study got a rash). But i'm not too impressed with the results ; that dose is pretty pricey. See http://bit.Ly/178bmuf for better options.
