ALA & Celltech
« on: August 17, 2008, 07:44:56 PM »
I noticed that when I was young and stupid and bought Celltech, my Jaw used to clench and tighten.  Now I just started ALA <alpha lipoic acid> and my jaw is doing the same. I know Celltech had ALA as well.

Anyone else have this jaw tightening when consuming ALA?

ALA has been one of the only supps I've taken consistently for over 10 years now and I've never heard of or experienced such a thing.  Very weird. 

I know that it can cause a burning sensation in your throat if not swallowed properly or when it's not capsulated (Cell-Schmek).

That doesn't happen (or at least, not to me), if you use the Grape and Lemon-lime flavors of CELL-TECH. Fruit Punch is a different story and the Orange flavor does that ALL THE TIME. That, along with its bitter taste, is why I loathe that particular flavor (unless GNC has the 7-lb jugs marked down to $20  ;D).
