Is Polygala 10:1 OK or would you absolutely need the 20:1 extract?

I found a local seller in EU for 10:1 and might go for it as the 20:1 from ND will be a bit more expensive due to shipping etc. Though I will order the ND one eventually.
But I'm wondering if there are basically no benefits with the 10:1 extract? I'm mainly interested in the NMDA antagonist effect would the 10:1 have any of that at all? I'm probably underestimating it but I have been unable to find any understandable information on this.

It might not even be polygala from them. I highly doubt they are using HP-TLC to verify species, plant part, and extraction method. Have them show you the chromatogram from the TLC plate, and see what they say. Extraction ratios are meaningless if proper analytical chemistry is not being used to verify things. You buy from us because you know it will be right every time, no exceptions. You buy from us because you know we put in the work to make sure things are scientifically valid before we allow customers to buy from us. I can't comment on their 10:1 because I have no idea who they are, who they use as a supplier, and how they test. I just know the industry standard right now will usually get you garbage.
