Is 1000 mg the recommended dosage? Or 500 mg twice a day?
It's one of the supplements I haven't tried.

Hi Janie,
I have been taking 500 mg 2x per day. It's what I've read in journals. Dr. Teitelbaum also made this recommendation in one of his books.
I think this supplement may have helped my fatigue along with d-ribose when I was pretty much recliner-bound at disease onset.
You might want to look through some of these studies too. The PMC database will give you full text articles. The search terms can probably be refined to get more targeted articles. You can click on "Advanced" and use the search builder for journal article optimization.
