Re: Dosage? Re: Hawthorn Tincture testimony/castor oil questions...

The dosage on the bottle says approximately 2 dropperfuls 4 times daily, but I haven't yet gotten to that amount. I'm building up to it, rather than taking the full dosage instantly. For a few days I was just taking 4 dropperfuls a day - 1 dropperful in the morning when I get out of bed, and the rest throughout the day. Now I'm taking 2 in the morning about an hour or so apart, and the rest spread out in the day. I'm slowly working towards the 8 dropperfuls daily. They're all done on an empty stomach or at least several minutes before I eat.

Two other things that are probably contributing are cayenne powder and garlic. I've been eating a clove a day, intending on increasing the amount slowly as well. The garlic gets me high which means anxiety attacks and brain fog/derealization, so I'm going to continue with 1 clove until I get used to it.

As for the cayenne powder, what I've been doing lately is getting a small pinch of it and putting it on my tongue, without drinking anything until the burn goes away. It's great stuff. Tweet
