What supps do you take all year?

No need to high dose it. 300 mg twice daily is good enough. I notice the benefits around week two or three. Not saying it doesn't work prior to then, but that is when I start "feeling" it. By that I mean my head is less foggy on a daily basis, I wake up more rested and I just feel better overall. Here are some good reads.

There isn't a need to go above 600mg/day KSM-66 (30mg/day withanolides), but the highest dose I've seen used in a study was 100mg/day withanolides (from 1000mg/day Sensoril) that noted improved reaction time (cognitive and psychomotor performance) after 14 days of supplementation.

600mg/day of a 5% withanolide extract is a staple of mine (either from Jarrow or AlphaMax XT). Sometimes I do like to take a bit more though, which will often just be another 300mg with the PM serving of AlphaMax XT, giving me 300mg AM and 600mg PM.

300 mg twice daily does not equal 600 mg?

It does. I guess I worded my post poorly. I was agreeing with you that 300mg 2x (600mg/day) is plenty (and very research supported), but it's ok to dose higher.

Pulled the trigger and just got the jarrow brand. Will dose at 600mg everyday.

No issue with that. My staples are essentially PEScience select, Ergonine (which really covers my needs for staples anyway), and high volume.
