Schisandra capsules?

Original post in this thread

Any chance of having stand alone Schisandra capsules?

Panamax is good but I don't notice enough from it to justify the cost in my daily stack (still using daily until I run out), and I'm more interested in Schisandra as a daily herb... but I'm lazy AF and refuse to buy powders.

Let me speak with the team about it. There are a few things we will likely offer in standalone capsules/tablets, but have been holding off because of supply chain issues or production backlog. The tablet coating company we used in California just went out of business because of COVID-19, too. So that is screwing up our tablets. We are trying to find an alternate partner, but everyone is so booked up because of backlog and due to the fact that many companies are shutting down or going out of business right now. It's like a minefield out there at the moment. You never know who is going to fall next. We got our tongkat ali 10% tablets back from the coating company, then merely days later we heard they went out of business. There was no warning or indications they were in trouble. This is also not the first of our partners in our supply chain to go out of business since the start of this pandemic, and I highly doubt it will be the last. The entire landscape of the industry will look different in a year's time, I have no doubt about that.

That being said, we have more encapsulation machines on our way to our facility, and I am putting in plans to possibly bring in coating and other supply chain processes that we currently outsource, too. So our own production capacity should be increasing soon. As with everything, I have found that the only way I can reliably control things is if we are doing it all in-house. Any time we rely on outside partners we open up the possibility that things will fall through. So having everything under our team is the only foolproof solution. It just takes getting the right equipment in, getting the right people to operate it, putting in proper processes to run them, and finding space to fit everything.

Regarding Schisandra capsules specifically, I see no reason why we couldn't do it. I just need to find the right time to fit it into the production schedule. When our new encapsulation machines arrive, and we have increased capacity, that could be one we slot in.

Thoughts on Momentous Tongkat? ND is no longer available to my country.

Do not buy from Momentous. Just go ask them for a COA or lab testing data. See what they say. I think the answer will surprise you. It's insane this is the brand someone like Huberman is promoting! It's $11 for standard

Yes, but I can't give you an exact day. The powder is in production now. So that will likely go up next week. Capsules might as well. The more potent tablets need to to to California for coating. So that adds another wee

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

Nootropics Depot quality under-represented on new supplement app

Replying to redditproha · The problem is their are no certifications or COAs represented on the packaging. This is generally done by shady businesses. I've had a hell of a time trying to research ND's claim

What are you talking about?!? Literally every product page has the COAs you can click on at any time. Moreover, we have the FDA registration and cGMP certificate of the facility that manufactured the products right there
