From the article.... "use of the supplement “Friction” and consistent daily use for the six weeks prior to admission that was 2–3 times greater than the manufacturer's recommended amount..."

S'pose I could see how that'd be rough.....

Hi everyone!

Evodiamine? Wow, never knew that. Anyone know how much of that is in Friction?

Not sure. I looked for the label and didn't see it listed.

In a more general sense, Id be interested to know just what percentage of 'us' megadose (or just exceed label recommendations) our supplements.

I wouldn't megadose a prop blend supplement for what I think should be obvious reasons.

 

[NewAgeMayan]

Sure.

But how many users tend to dose using a "she'll be right, mate" attitude?

Going by what I read at various forums, people appear to have varying ideas of where to draw the dosing line; ie some at label recommendations, some at various points beyond that, etc. And then these points vary depending on the particular supplement.

I mean, just as a point of interest what might you deem "excessive dosing", De_eB? Any amount larger than label directions, or any amount beyond safety quantities (assuming the latter exist)?

If I want to megadose something, I'm buying a bulk single ingredient, and basing my dosing on known safety parameters.

There are relatively few companies whose QC I trust enough to push the safety parameters on a potentially dangerous ingredient.

 

[NewAgeMayan]

Thats certainly a sound approach, and I would think most users would agree to something like it in principle; whether that would also extend to adherence in practice, I dunno.

Yikes, that stuff is potent. Never tried the newest version, honestly afraid to, LOL.

Its ****house, coming from someone who enjoys his various stimulants. Half a scoop had me feeling spaced out and just plain garbage.
