Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to start taking the capsules? - It is recommended that you start taking two capsules a day - morning and evening - with a glass of water or juice. If there is no noticeable difference after a week or so then the dosage may be increased. Once the level of pain has lessened you should be able to reduce the dosage to a maintenance level where the capsules can be most effective. The dosage level may be varied on a regular basis to cope with differing levels of pain.

Can I ‘overdose’ on the capsules? - There have been no reported side effects from taking increased levels of capsules.The capsules contain only natural substances.

When is the best time to take the capsules? There is no right or wrong time to take the capsules. It is generally believed that absorption is better on an empty stomach and it is suggested that they be taken morning and evening. Capsules should be taken with water or juice to ensure they are ‘washed’ into the stomach.

Can I mix the type of capsule I take? - Yes, there is no reason to suggest that any interaction takes place between the different types.

How long will the capsules last? - The capsules may be stored in their unopened state for three years without refrigeration. Once opened there has been no noticeable degradation in the quality of the product provided the container is kept sealed after each use. It is recommended that the capsules are not used if if their ‘Use By’ date has expired. If the capsules are exposed to sunlight a discolouration may occur since they contain no preservative to prevent this.

When will my gout pain disappear? - Provided the correct dosage has been taken, it has been shown through experience, that the pain will significantly reduce after 24 to 48 hours. This cannot be guaranteed of course, since everyone has a different metabolism, tolerance, build etc and it may take some time for an individual dosage to be arrived at that provides relief.

Why must I take the capsules every day? - To be honest you don’t! Once the pain has been relieved or diminishes to an acceptable level you could stop taking them. This course of action however may cause a ‘yo-yo’ effect and you will have to start the process over again when the pain returns or another gout attack occurs. It is recommended that a maintenance level of sufficient capsules are taken on a daily basis to prevent re-occurrence and is for the individual to decide.

Of course, some of the products may not have an immediate benefit like the cessation of pain, and you will only benefit from them over the long term like the anti-aging qualities of anti-oxidants.
