I have never heard of lipoic acid before but it sounds very interesting. I have just ordered some on Amazon from a manufacturer I trust. On the subject of the proteins... Just been looking at the book I was given years ago in Holland which contains tables listing the amounts of different things in everything - from carbs and cals to proteins fats and sodium. The amount of protein in the different protein-rich foods varies enormously, from 7g in a 50g egg, through 10g in 50g of almonds and 12.5g in 50g of cheddar to 15.5 in 50g of chicken breast or steak. There's even 1g of protein in 50g of avocado. Do you calculate your 'bolus for 50%' of the protein on the basis of these individual statistics? I can't really see how else to work out the actual amount of protein you're getting in various things.</p></blockquote><p></p>
