Thanks, I see. :) I'll make sure to get it the next time I visit the wet market.
>>>>Just use a bitter herb powder. You could use gentian, mugwort, jiaogulan, picrorrhiza, etc. Just put a pinch in the mouth and suck on the powder for 5-10 seconds before swallowing. That way you you get the bitter effect without any alcohol.
Unfortunately, none of the "Chinese medical shops" here carry any powdered forms of those bitters. They only come in dried herbal form or if not, pills for "fo ti". I'm unsure if I should get the pills though... the instructions said: 5 pills, 3 times a day for about 400++mg. That's pretty excessive.
>>>>Not really. This varies from person to person. For example a person who smokes or is under high stress will need a higher intake of vitamin C. A person on Prednisone will have a higher need for vitamin C and potassium. An alcoholic will need more B vitamins and magnesium. Diabetics more chromium and magnesium. Women on birht control or other hormones more B6...................
Darn, that really shot my ideas to hell. :p On the other hand, I'm slowly listing out all the symptoms I've suffered throughout the years.
>>>>Not exactly sure what you are trying to heal. But the krill oil is going to mainly help with cholesterol, triglycerides and inflammation. The ubiquinol helps with ATP formation so that is good, but you need at elast 200mg daily.
Oh, I took Krill Oil 'cos I heard it was good for the brains.
>>>> Yes, if fresh. But the alkaloids are quickly destroyed through oxidation after drying. So they are destroyed after about 2 months after drying.
Oh... I see.
