Hi, I just saw your question. My fiance and I stir it into a bowl of miso soup every night and it helps us sleep very soundly. So this is more of a savory recipe which I think you might like: Ingredients for one bowl of miso gelatin soup: 2 cups of boiling water 1-2 Tbs Gelatin 1-2 Tsp Miso Paste (we like to use Westbrae Miso which can be found at Whole Foods, but any Miso Paste will do) 1 Tsp Tumeric 1 Tsp Coconut Oil 1/4 Tsp Paprika dash Cayenne dash sea salt (none if your Miso is high in sodium) Add all ingredients except water to a large bowl. Boil water. Pour over ingredients in bowl and stir until everything is dissolved. (don't cook everything in the pot...to preserve the probiotic properties of the miso) Drink an hour or two before bedtime. It is very soothing and yummy...no weird gelatin taste... You will sleep very soundly and also have vivid dreams. enjoy~

Take with a small glass of water-45 minutes before bed time.Time released is the better product-safe ,effective and inexpensive for me.

I wish I could help with your question. The GNC nutritionist I spoke to told me take one 30 minutes before every meal. hmmm

I take two before bed. Everyone is different so try 2 a day and adjust to what works best for you.

I use morning and evening, but it hasn't helped very much. I will not reorder when the first jar is gone.

I take it before bed. It helps relax your body so you're not only getting better qualify of sleep, it also helps with digestion.

I put 1 cup of steel cut oats, 3 1/2 cups water, a little salt, 1 tsp vanilla, and a sprinkle of cinnamon in at bedtime and set the timer for about an hour before I get up using the "soup" setting. (As I understand it, "soup" cooks at a lower temp but longer than the white rice setting.)Good stuff in the morning with milk and brown sugar.

I actually just posted this comment to answer another question on this discussion board, so I'm going to copy and paste :) "(disclaimer: I work for trustednutrients.com) we suggest starting with one capsule, twice daily, 45 minute to an hour before meals, with a tall (8oz) glass of water, on an empty stomach. That said, every person is different and results will vary. Play with it and find what you are comfortable with."

Great recipe, Stephen. Thanks for sharing it. I only added some maple syrup before serving. Not sure if this will make a difference for some people, but I let the oatmeal steam for about 15 minutes after cooking ends. (The "soup" setting takes roughly an hour.) Then I open the cooker and stir well.

I usually take them during the day to stave off hunger.Take them before bedtime and you may blow the covers off the bed.

I've taken it as one tablespoon in the morning and one in the evening to balance out its effectiveness. However, sometimes when I forget to take it in the morning I just take two tablespoons in the evening. Both seem to work equally well. I think simply remembering to take two tablespoons each day is the most sensible criteria and not worry too much about doing it "just right".

I would take 1 capsule 30 min or so before every meal. GNC did not tell me to take them all at once... it's pretty confusing because on the bottle it does not give any instructions but I would think that it make more sense breaking it down with each meal. Worked for me..

I like to use it in the morning but whenever is best for you should be fine. It works very well.

Eduardo, I would absolutely not take this supplement at 8:30 pm. I am a light sleeper, so the latest I will take it is for a workout at lunch. Most of the time I use it to workout in the morning. This will affect your sleep if you take it in the late afternoon or at night
