It also helps maintain nerve health throughout the body and may support a positive mood, particularly during periods of stress.

Athletes and active individuals sometimes use it for its potential energy-supporting properties. As always, consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement, especially if you have a medical condition or take medications.

The typical recommendation is to follow the dosage instructions on the product label. Thorne generally suggests taking one capsule one to three times daily, with or without food.
