Cistanche advice for a beginner?
Original post in this thread

I’ve been looking through the subreddit for info about how to take cistanche, and it just feels a bit overwhelming. One person was saying I need to take it with 6 eggs! And from what I’ve seen, it stacks with HGW and tongkat. Is there anything I should know before taking it?
Update: My initial reaction to it was that it made me tired. I gave it a bit of time to see if I would feel anything else. I didn’t. So I bumped up the combination to Tongkat 10% and HGW 50%. I feel incredibly stimulated. It’s some of the strongest stimulation I’ve had from ND too. But this could be the result of the large stack I had this morning interacting with this evening stack for the stimulation. Hard to tell, I’ll have to try this all again without the large morning stack.

Also increasing cholesterol intake doesn't increase serum cholesterol. That's a myth. It's more about increasing saturated fat intake. So you could take cistanche with ground beef or milk.

I suggest taking cistanche with SmartPS, as phosphatidylserine is required to properly transport cholesterol into cells.
