I was wondering how much of a dosage he should take a day. When I spoke to the gentleman at International Gourmet, he said that you have to experiment and see what works.

I was wondering what you guys would suggest.

Thanks,

I have been taking it 3 times a day 1 teaspoon per dose. I have not cut my regular meds down. It does seem to help and I've noticed no adverse effect. I did eat too many fava beans one day and experienced muscle cramps, so I would think you'd want to go slow and see what works for him. Also, I got a notice from International Gourmet that it's coming to the end of the season for the juice to be available. So, if it works for you, you'd better put up a supply.
