How to Take It
Best taken in the evening
Calming herb — used in the evening. Take it with food — the zinc in it is what makes this kind of product feel nauseating on an empty stomach.
With food
Space it a couple of hours from Iron and Calcium
Label directs 2 servings — keep one for the evening
On the label
3 capsules twice daily
Do not combine with 5-HTP, SAMe or Tryptophan
Each of these raises serotonin activity on top of St. John's Wort, and together they can trigger serotonin syndrome — agitation, rapid heartbeat, raised blood pressure. Not without medical supervision.
General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
