The dose in the studies I read was around 1.6g, IIRC.

I took 5g and it worked.
(I need to take more because of a benzo tolerance.)

I have heard there is some caution with respect to thyroid function, but I know nothing about that.

I have heard it grows wild in some parts of the US.
Someone said he grew it out the back and picked the leaves and threw them in a teapot.

I didn't like the capsules, but the tincture is great. Stopped racing anxiety in its tracks. I don't use it much, but I have it nearby no matter where I go. It feels "clean" too. I like that.

Zizyphus tincture is a great one too.

Same clean feeling.
