I have been using a 125 mg ashwagandha supplement from Life Extension as the major source of this nutraceutical. It costs $7.50 for 60 doses. The more recent introduction of Amazing Ashwa from Force Factor has 1400 mg Ashwagandha (800 mg Ashwagandha root powder and 600 mg KSM-66 Ashwagandha root extract) plus extracts with 200 mg Ginseng, 150 mg Goji berry, 100 mg Bacopa monnieri, 100 mg Green Tea, 100 mg Black Maca, 100 mg Rhodiola rosea, and including 100 mg L-Theanine, 40 mcg (1600 IU) Vitamin D, 10 mg Niacin, 2 mg Vitamin B6, 25 mcg Vitamin B12, 192 mg Calcium and 149 mg Phosphorus as Dicalcium Phosphate, 15 mg Zinc Oxide, 50 mcg Selenium (L-Slelenomethionine) and 5 mg BioPerine Black pepper fruit extract. The supplement costs $15.00 for 30 doses of four tablets. Is the Amazing Ashwa supplement significantly more beneficial than taking just 125 mg ashwagandha from Life Extension?

Given the much higher levels of Ashwagandha in the Amazing Ashwa supplement, could there be sufficient benefit for most users or myself from taking just two of the tablets per dose? That would double the length of coverage with each bottle, and halve the purchase price. It would also halve the dose delivered of all the other ingredients.

NaturaLife Labs offers a supplement with 2100 mg Ashwagandha alone, as a blend of root powder and root extract, along with black pepper to improve bioavailability. At 3 tablets per dose, one bottle could cover three months taking just a single 700 mg tablet, for about the same cost as Amazing Ashwa. Is the 2100 mg dose of Ashwagandha in the NaturaLife Labs product overkill, or would that high a dose give a significantly greater benefit?

Am I taking too much vitamin D3? Dr. Sears recommends 2000 IU daily. I am taking two 5000 IU gelcaps. Is it better to take half at noon and half at night, or is taking two together wasteful?

Is the vitamin D3 I am taking going to waste unless I take a more absorbable form of zinc, like zinc acetate?

The nutritional supplement, CoreAshwa-Q Plus, from Smart Science Nutritionals and recommended by Dr. Micozzi based on 40 years of expertise in finding natural solutions, has 11 ingredients, including Selenium, Ashwagandha, CoQ10, Vitamins B1, B6, B9, B12, D3, and K2, along with magnesium. It is promoted as being “Your own powerful, ONE-STOP SOLUTION to fight aging from head to toe AND at a cellular level.” Is that literally true, or at least true enough to warrant our recommending it?

Would CoreAshwa-Q Plus be superior to Advanced Mitochondrial Formula or Metaphenol 27 for inclusion in our Antiviral Regimen as well as maintaining general health to counteract effects of aging? Are the latter two supplements enough when used together? What is most important for us to know?

A viewer asks: “Although Creator has recommended wide-spectrum multivitamin and mineral dietary supplements it is likely beneficial to know best dosages, for example for UK males over 60 as older adults commonly experience deficiencies in Vitamins C, D, B12, B9, and Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc. Typical dosages of key vitamins and minerals found in supplements for men over 60 are : Vit C 60-100 mg, D 0-25 μg (400-1000 IU), B12 1.5-24 μg, B9 200-400 μg, Calcium 200-300 mg, Magnesium 100-300 mg, Zinc 10-15 mg. Are these dosages likely to be close to optimal for this group or are higher levels needed? Some research suggests for example that Vitamin D3 doses should range from 5,000 IU to 50,000 IU in extremis.”

A viewer asks: “Creator has suggested there may be grounds for taking a wide spectrum multivitamin and mineral in addition to antivirals. One business source in the UK makes claims regarding vitamin D, B9, and B12. They say 57% of UK adults have below-optimal levels of vitamin D; 20% of those aged 60 and above have a vitamin B12 deficiency; 23% of women aged 19-64 have iron intakes below recommended levels. They also claim calcium and magnesium may be generally deficient. To what extent are these statistics accurate and would it be wise to take a wide-spectrum supplement?” What can we tell him?

He asks about what would be a good broad-spectrum vitamin and mineral supplement: “Would Food-Grown® Daily Multi Nutrient, Centrum Advance, Multi Guard, or similar, be safe and beneficial for men and women over 50?” What can we tell him?
