turkey tail question

Original post in this thread

Exotic-Pumpkin343 · 2 points

I ordered the turkey tail capsules but wondering about the logic for the suggested use. I see other popular brands suggest 3 capsules (range of 350mg-500mg per capsule). Nootropics suggests only 1 capsule per day. Is there a reason for this? Can I start with 1 and up my dosage over time?

We tend to err on the side of caution with our suggestions. I often find that what everyone else is suggesting for a dose is too much. This is especially true with alpha-GPC, where the usual 300-600mg doses give me depressive feelings. This is why we did 150mg. The same goes for the mushrooms. Cordyceps is a big one that I find lower doses to be more effective than going too high. I know many people combine multiple mushrooms together as well, so we are reasonable with our dosing recommendations. However, that doesn't mean you can't increase the dose if you find it works well for you, though. You absolutely can.

Cordyceps Dosage Changing?

We originally had the dose the same between the 1:1 and 10:1 extracts. We decided that 250mg was a more appropriate dose for the higher potency 10:1 extract, which is why we made the capsules 250mg. So we switched it on

Alpha GPC capsules - 150mg of total Choline, or 150mg Alpha GPC (~60mg Choline)?

Choline does not have an RDA. So you do not list it the same as things that do, like you would magnesium or zinc. Choline has an AI, or adequate intake level of 550mg for men and 425mg for women. The issue is that those
