Accidental Cistanche Megadose…

Original post in this thread

cooIness · 6 points

Hey guys, so for the past 2 days I accidentally been taking a whopping 2 grams of ND’s Cistanche. Well to be fair, 2 grams on the first day and 1.5 grams today before my eyes pierced the actual recommended dose.

For some idiotic reason I misread 200mg for 2 grams.. That’s right, 10x the recommended dose.

So I was wondering are there any side effects of taking such a massive dose? Could I have screwed up the tolerance already in just 2 days? Surprisingly, I haven’t noticed any benefits yet, and thankfully no side effects either.

P.S: Ill make sure to wipe the crust out of my eyes before I take this stuff or any other nootropic in that case lol.

Thanks for reading this potentially hazardous screw up

Well I did say accidental.. and like I said I won’t be doing that again. I mainly posted this to ask if there are any tolerances from that mistake in the course of 2 days and if it takes a few days to notice the benefits (with the regular dose of course).

Love your products btw, never disappointed and thanks for reading this post.

Significant acute tolerance is not common. I don't see any reason why a few large doses of cistanche would cause any real tolerance to any mechanism. It's really hard to say for sure, though. Not sure many people have taken 2 grams of a super potent extract. LOL. I wouldn't worry about it personally.

There are so many bullshit tongkats on the market now, especially after Huberman went on Rogan. I am just going to be very direct here, as I no longer have the time nor the energy for bullshit. Anyone selling a 200:1 ton

Reason for the decrease in Cistanche Acteosides?

It was lowered due to lab testing improvements we made to the methods. All the labs out there currently testing Cistanche are massively overstating the acteoside/verbascoside content. We went back and forth with Alkemist
