Lol, I screwed up the other topic by mixing up my nick an the topic title, so it might not attract attention of WU users, lol I'm so embarased. So I was saying...
I would like to know what is the recomended ammount of servings per day (how many pills per day)? I heard it was six, but is that how much everyone is taking or the maximum? I already know the ingredients and mg in one pill. I'm using WU as a reference of how much of each herb to take in a blend. Thakns!
i am taking the recommended amount, six pills a day and it is working, slowly but it is working. wu contains extracts, so if you want to know the amount of dried herb that it's equivalent to you have to multiply the amount in wu by 4...just in case you didn't know this
Yes moon.......the recommended dosage is 6 tabs a day. You are to take 2 at a time and space them out as equally apart as possible, like every 8 hours.
I took the full dose for about 4 months but the growth was minimal in that time. I figured that after doing 5 months of mirifem, that I had overloaded my system with photoestrogen. After cutting down to 2 tabs a day plus the vitex (into the 3rd month of that), I'm growing again.
I'd say it's best to stick to the recommended dosage for a few months anyways and tune into your own body. Listen to what it tells you, then tweak.
Faerycat -- After you overloaded your system with phytoestrogens, did you take any break or do any kind of cleanse before starting a new program? I only ask because I think I might be overloaded and stalling too, and I am just wondering if I should do a break and/or cleanse before starting a new program.
No, I didn't take a break, I just cut the phytoestrogens down to a bare minimum then had a growth spurt :-) Sometimes less is best.
Since doing that I'm having tingles all the time again........lol, and feel like I am expanding permanently too......woo hoo!!
I do drink lots of nettle tea and although it doesn't contain the actual root, it has a cleansing effect and helps things along nicely.
You really have to listen to your own body. If you feel you are stalling, then cut back on the phyto-E's.
You could try adding 15mg of zinc to your prog too as this aids with absorbtion of the herbs. Glad to see you have added Vit E......I swear by that stuff. You don't say what age you are.
Thanks for the advice. I think I will cut way back on phytoestrogens after this cycle. I have been afraid to do that because I have grown some and I don't want to lose that growth. But my body is telling me that I am stalling, and I know that I am taking way too many herbs right now. So I think I will cut down on the phytoestrogens and continue with the progesterone type herbs, like vitex and wild yam...they seem to really agree with me in other ways besides NBE, like with my PMS. Of course I'll continue with the building blocks like the gelatin and protein shakes too. Also the mixed oil and vitamin e. I'll try the nettle tea too. So I'll still be taking a ton of stuff! Then, after a while, I'll slowly add back in some of the phytoestrogens.
Thanks for the feedback...it has really helped me to figure this out.
The recommended dosage is 6 tablets a day, but there are some who take more than that, 8 or 9 a day. This is something I am considering, although I know Wonderup at 6 tablets a day gives you a whole lot of herb anyway.
