dietary supplements & dosage
It is best to start with one capsule per day with some food and increase to two capsules in the morning and two in the evening over a week or so depending on tolerability and symptom severity. It is advisable not to exceed 4 capsules per day without asking your health provider because taking more may depend on what other supplements and medications you are taking, as well as on the activity of your liver metabolizing enzymes.
You can be taking them as long as there is a benefit and there are no sensitivities or adverse effect.
No, but Algonot is proud to check the source, amount and purity (95-98%) using certified, independent laboratories.
Supplements cannot have treatment claims. However, each supplement was formulated using patented combinations of natural molecules based on many years of research, clinical studies and hundreds of scientific publications.
You can make a small hole and squeeze the content in some apple sauce, honey, or yogurt unless there is casein sensitivity. The contents do not dissolve in water, juice, or milk. However, you can also try the NeuroProtek Low Phenol Liquid of which one dropperful under the tongue is roughly equivalent to one soft gel.
All of our most recent products, contain bovine and not porcine gelatin, except for ViralProtek is formulated in vegetarian capsules and the NeuroProtek Low Phenol Liquid, which do not contain gelatin. Algonot’s production team is working hard to switch animal gelatin to vegetable gelatin in the near future.
Flavonoids such as luteolin and quercetin are absorbed from the intestine less than 10% in powder form. Formulating them in olive pomace oil certified for human consumption (oleic acid content less than 1%) increases intestinal liposomal absorption 3-5 times and you also get the extra benefit of the unsaturated oil known to be cardioprotective.
The coloring in our capsules is determined by the production process and the particular product. Since 2021, our standard coloring method has been to use natural fruit coloring to eliminate the need for added sugars found in other dietary supplement brands that are using caramel as their primary coloring method.
A lot depends on presence of allergies, hyperactivity, phenol intolerance, weight etc. In the absence of the above information, it is safer to start with one softgel or its content of NeuroProtek-Low Phenol mixed in applesauce, honey or hummus for one week and then advance to one twice per day if the child is about 20 kg or more. Otherwise, one dropperful of NeuroProtek-Low Phenol Liquid, twice per day in some juice or mixed with flavored cod liver oil or administered directly under the tongue. Depending on how low or high functioning the child is, it may take 1-3 months to see any benefit starting with improved eye contact, patience, following commands and sociability. Language improvement takes longer and may require additional support such as 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) or calcium folinate depending on the levels of serum folic acid and the presence of MTHFR mutations.
It is best to spread the dosage out because the active ingredients are removed from the body after 8 hours.
No, that indicates the date of manufacture, not the expiration date. It’s important to adhere to the ‘best by’ instructions provided on the bottle.
Yes. In fact, there may be synergistic effect because the key ingredient in the skin lotion, tetrametoxyflavone, is more potent than either luteolin and quercetin and has been shown to inhibit release of inflammatory molecules. Applying to the temples would also increase absorption directly temporal (brain) blood vessels.
All of the products are safe to be combined. If brain fog is present, BrainGain can be safely added with any of the products.
Two soft gels because some is left behind and some is destroyed by the acid in the stomach.
No effect.
Products are expected to maintain their effectiveness for a minimum of six months past the provided date. While the FDA does not mandate expiration dates for dietary supplements, it is recommended to adhere to the “best used by” date for optimal quality.
Throughout the summer, products are shipped with ice packs to prevent soft gels from sticking together. If soft gels do stick, they can be easily separated by putting the bottle in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes and then giving it a vigorous shake.
