My package of supplements (minus the yet to be shipped purified kudzu extract--they did send a temp substitute) arrived in the mail last evening. I started taking the stuff this morning. I have one suggestion regarding the vegetable powder. The instructions said to fill the provided empty container half full of juice, add four heaping teaspoons of the powder, cover, shake and drink. Since a scoop is included with the container, I assumed that each scoop was a teaspoon (being a male, I don't use cooking measures much and thus don't have an eye for what's what in that dept.) Hence I added four scoops and gulped it down. Seemed rather thick, so I rattled around, found a teaspoon measure, filled it with water four times pouring that into the scoop, and discovered that the provided scoop itself was a bit more than the suggested 4 teaspoons. Hence, my first time out, I used 16 times the recommended dosage. Somewhere that should have been made clear--the scoop itself is 4-plus teaspoons!
On other fronts, I am on day 10 of Topamax, now at the 50 mg level and my doc won't raise it any higher until he sees me three weeks after first prescribing it. Can't say it has made a whit of difference in my evening drinking habit so far.
Since men and women are obviously wired differently, and since this site consists mainly of women and was designed by women, I wonder if it mainly works for women?
FWIW.
