We find that corrections due to states of opposite parity are competitive with the contributions arising from K and eta meson loops. Since lattice studies rely on the chiral behavior of the amplitudes we discuss the chiral limit of our results. We also comment on the extraction of 1/m_B, 1/m_D subleading form factors relevant for the studies of B_q to D_q tau nu decays, which are sensitive to possible helicity-suppressed new physics contributions.4 pages, 2 figures, updated page style, references, contributed to proceedings of ICHEP08High Energy Physics - Phenomenologytext
