A few Tongkat Ali questions
Original post in this thread

1. How often should you dose it? (how long do effects last)
2. Any need for cycling or is it good for daily use?
3. Any side effects? It may have been the thing that made me very nauseous this morning
4. Good to take at night or will it disrupt sleep?
5. Does it have acute effects or does it take time (days, weeks, etc), if so, how long?
6. Are there any studies about effects in women? Is it safe/useful for women?
7. What's everyone's preferred dose and what effects do you see?
Many thanks to ND for offering this awesome supplement. My experience has been very positive so far but I'll hold off on too many early judgements. Thanks for any insights!

No, I do not fast, quite the opposite. I usually eat small amounts every 3 hours or so. You may be onto something with your blood glucose hypothesis. While I experience nausea whether I eat beforehand or not, as I'm sure you already know hypoglycemia symptoms can occur if blood glucose drops rapidly even if it stays within normal limits. I do not get the other traditional hypoglycemia symptoms (lightheadedness, irritability, etc.) . Perhaps the tongkat is masking those. I'll let you know what I find out.
