Ulter and Macro...regarding description for GLA at the AF Store

Fonz · 03-20-2003, 12:31 AM

You say:

"Reduces glucose levels for fat loss"

This is incorrect. GLA stabilizes BG levels so that hyperglycaemia does not occurr following a high carb meal.

Doesn't REDUCE. It STABILIZES so that rebound hypoglycaemia doesn't occurr.

My current tests on GLA concurr with what I am saying.

It is also(low and behold) slightly thermogenic.
No kidding, possibly through increased BAT activity or prostaglandin production.

I'll complete my entire BG study of various compounds in 3 weeks, but I have finished the testing on GLA. GLA does not act like ALA.

LOL.. Ok

I want to discuss the bio-chem w/ Macro re: GLA b/c it has some interesting BG modulating properties.

reduction of BG, perhaps not directly.. however that is still the "effect" and agree that the mechanism is wholely different than r-ala.. two different modes of action

GLA, like some poly and super polyunsaturates, is weak uncoupler. also thermogenesis you describe may be releated to infleunces on prostaglandins

r-ala should help with hypoglycemia by reducing insulin secretion (if it is beta cell insensitivity that causes over production)
