Cognitol™

Suggested/Recommended/Usage/Directions

One per day in the morning with food is adequate. It can be taken at any time of day. However, taking this product may cause insomnia in a small percentage of people if taken too late in the day. One softgel in the morning with food is usually all that is necessary. Those with an extra work load may wish to use another later in the day, but this is usually not needed.
