Re: How much D-Ribose should I take?

[Guest guest]

I have not yet started taking this as I have not been able to find what

I want, but this information is from my Natural Health magazine, which

is where i first heard about the benefits of taking D-Ribose.

Ribose is not habit-forming and won't cause side effects when taken

over long periods. It comes in powder and capsules; the Dr. from this

study prefers the powder because it's easy to take - it can be mixed

with any volume of liquid - and often less expensive. The recommended

dosage for CFS and FMS is 5 grams three times daily for three to six

weeks. After that, you can cut back to twice a day. Single does with

more than 10 grams may cause gastrointestinal discomfort.

I hope this helps.
