Tongkat ali made me irritable, Shoden did the opposite, should I combine them?

Tongkat ali is supposed to have adaptogenic qualities, but it made me irritable, although very focused on tasks.

Shoden also seems to help me focus.

Thoughts on combining them?

It's a very common combo, and I personally combine them all the time. If you get edgy on Tongkat, Shoden does a good job of smoothing that out.

It's a massive frustration of mine with other brands. Sellers will unnecessarily spread doses over multiple capsules to increase capsule counts, to seem like a better value. This is to trick consumers into thinking they

Hmm, I am proud of a lot of them. I would say tongkat ali or NMN for effects and how much I personally like them. I would say Shoden for the scientific work we put in to it. I am honestly still very proud of Immune Defen
