Tongkat Ali feels like modafinil to me (question of timing)

It's great, isn't it? I love the energy it gives me. However, I only dose once in the AM. I never re-dose during the day. I would probably have the same issues with sleep if I did. It's more of a morning one. It's best s

Not for me, no. I have not noticed any degradation in my sleep. However, I only take it in the AM. I would have to try taking it later in the day to see if I can replicate OP's results. The difference is not the same as

Correct. They are stable in all pH environments. The issue is poor membrane permeability. So you want the most time in contact with the mucous membranes as you can. This means the faster the tablets dissolve, the better.

Ohh god, don't do that. You will be bothered. I don't care what you say, you will be bothered.

The powder is cheaper than the capsules... Are you sure you are calculating it right? 60ct capsules at 200mg is 12 grams. $20/12 is $1.66/g. 15g powder is $23. $23/15 is $1.53/g. So the powder is cheaper per gram than th

I want to hear what you think if you try it, though! But seriously... when I say this is the most intense tasting thing out there, I am not joking. It's head shaking/body shivering bitter.

And that's the 2%. Imagine the 10%... I was taking that every damn morning in water!

I have not felt any, but I have not measured my thyroid function. I am generally a slow fat burner, though. So I am not one that would react poorly to a bit of thyroid stimulation.

Thanks man. It was so sudden. Not that either of us haven't had that happen before...

You are talking about our 2% tongkat powder?

Comment · Fri, August 7, 2020 · 5 pts

Yeah, that one is pretty bad, but the 10% is the one I am talking about being the worst. That's the one that makes me shudder the most. No problem! I am glad we can give such good prices on a potent extract!

Have you let the holy tonkat into your life yet?

We always try to be fair. We set our prices based on our costs, and keep them there as long as we can. We are not in the business of raising prices due to supply issues. It's why I shake my head when I see some people sa

> Yes. Makes sense with the loss of product in the encapsulation process. Though even with a very small loss of powder I would have imagened the encapsulation to add more cost to the final product. I think we also wante

It fluffs up into the air when you open the container it is in as well. Then you can immediately start tasting it in the air! LOL

If it were up to me, I would just do whole numbers on everything. However, it really does affect sales. It's just as much about how people feel after a sale as it is objectively how much they paid. There are whole studie

200mg of the 2% is plenty fine. I have taken varying doses, and even combined the two extract together. I think 200mg of the 2% is a good dose to start with and see how you react first.

I have thought about making a mixture that is the most vile tasting thing out there. I could do it easily. The base would be the 10% tongkat extract. Then you add some berberine for the nice bile flavor it gives. You add

Haha! Wow! I must have copied the LC-Plasma study instead. Yes, I think that second one was the study I was trying to link. Thanks! Here are a few others. [Phytoandrogenic properties of Eurycoma longifolia as natural

LOL, FIVE capsules for a first dose?!? Remember, this 2% extract is still super potent!
