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!

Chiming in with my experience. Drinking green tea in a fasted state (mornings) tends to make me nauseous. I'll slowly go through a mug and by the end I'll suddenly get a quickly building-up feeling of nausea that's instantly gone if I eat even a nibble. The same happened to me once with tongkat 2% powder, though the nausea came quicker and was less intense. It could have been related to me not having yet learned to swallow it quickly enough to minimize the taste.

I suppose I should be thankful I am not prone to nausea. I can literally take 20 capsules/tablets of various things on an empty stomach in the morning and be fine. I guess I can feel a little something, but nothing bad. It goes away in like 2min, too.
