Athlex Ginseng Dosage*

Recommended Dosage: 333 – 3,000 milligrams @ 1-2 times a day*

As the predominant tonic in Athlex Ginseng is the Asian species of panax ginseng, reference panax ginseng dosage for more information and insight.*

Athlex Ginseng Dosage Equation:

The dosage of most tonics work by bodyweight and activity level and dietary factors. The amount of Athlex Ginseng taken is highly dependent on activity level.

BW + AL + DF

• Bodyweight (BW) is the overall weight measured by a bathroom or locker room scale.
• Activity level (AL) is a relative unit based on the amount of work accomplished, stress-levels and fitness-intensity.
• Diet factors (DF) are based on how much calories and food is taken in, such as protein, fat and carbohydrates.

Estimated Daily Dosage:

• BW = 1 dropper per ~200 pounds bodyweight
• AL = + 1-3+ droppers - 1 low, 2 medium, 3+ high
• DF = + 1 dropper for every ~1500 kcal reached

Example #1: 175lb person (BW = 0 dropper) who is doing marital arts for a couple hours (AL = 3+ droppers) and eats ~2750 kcals (DF = 1 dropper) would have a functional dosage of ~4+ droppers daily divided into 1-2 doses across the day.

Example #1 is BW 0 + AL 3+ + DF 1 = ~4+ droppers

Example #2: 165lb person (BW = 0 dropper) who is participating in intimacy in the evening (AL = 2 dropper) and eats  ~2150kcals (DF = 1 dropper) would have a functional dosage of ~3 droppers daily divided into 1-2 doses across the day.

Example #2 is BW 0 + AL 2 + DF 1 = ~3 droppers

To find a functional dose, start with a minimum dose of 10 drops to 1 dropper and work up to a functional dose.* Many benefits of tonics come from consistent and continued use over a period of time.*

Athlex Ginseng dropper:

• 60 1ml droppers in a 2oz (60ml) bottle
• 1ml dropper = ~1000 mgs Athlex Ginseng formula extract

Athlex Ginseng drops:

• 30 drops in a 1ml dropper
• 1 drop = ~33 mgs Athlex Ginseng formula extract

Suggested Athlex Ginseng Cycle:*

• Initial Phase = 1-30 days
• Health Cultivation = 14-90 days
• Optional Cycle-off Period = 1-30 days

Continuous performance consumption of Athlex Ginseng will yield increasing benefits and results over the time consumed; in other words, consistent performance consumption of Athlex Ginseng at a functional dosage over the period of suggested time will increase performance effects and benefits.*

Athlex Ginseng will cultivate health after 1-3 months of use, after this cycle it may be traded-out for another tonic adaptogen superfood.*

Suggested Timing:

How to take Athlex Ginseng

Athlex Ginseng is primarily a performance tonic that is suggested to be taken towards the beginning of the day and/or before a main performance activity.*

• Performance - 15-30 minutes before physical activity or mental tasks.

The addition of probiotics in the daily diet will further activate the constituents in the extraction for easy assimilation.*

Take as desired: consume on a continuous basis to develop the natural tonic and adaptogenic benefits that build over time.* Some benefits are immediate and some results require consumption over several days and weeks to accomplish.* A good tonic cycle is 45-90 days of a tonic adaptogen which will generate lasting health changes.*

Shake gently: secure the lid and turn the bottle over back-and-forth 3-5 times to evenly distribute the tincture. Do not over-shake as the vigorous mixing of air with the extract will oxidize and damage many of the necessary constituents for required dosage and potency.

By mouth: hold the liquid under the tongue for 60-90 seconds and then swallow the rest of extract; doing so allows digestion to begin in the mouth and will take advantage of the activated multi-step extract so that many of the constituents will bypass digestion and enter the body through the mouth and throat.* Holding the extract also promotes better absorption and assimilation and elicits an immediate effect that is performance oriented*

Mix with water: squirt the drops or entire droppers into 2-4 oz. of water that is under 120*F. Water that is cool to lukewarm temperature is best to preserve the volatile and fragile constituents from being damaged and denatured which will reduce the potency of the extract.* Sip slowly to allow absorption in the mouth and throat.* This method makes it easier to become accustomed to the extract and to take larger doses of several different tinctures at once in a tonic program.*

For maximum potency: regularly consume the tincture within a period of 45 days; after 45 days of continuous consumption the extract may begin to gradually lose potency requiring a larger dosage to achieve similar benefit.* A bottle will generally last 10-30 days depending on dosage and concurrent supplementation programming.*

Benefits with tonics take time; taking enough consistently rewards health.
