Overview
•Recommended adult dose is 1 capsule twice daily on an empty stomach, providing 1,000 mg/day of 5:1 botanical extract equivalent to 5,000 mg/day dried herbs.
•Do not use during pregnancy; fenugreek and blessed thistle are traditionally active botanicals and the label specifically contraindicates pregnancy use.
•Consult a health care practitioner before use while breastfeeding, despite the lactation-support positioning, especially if milk supply issues have a medical cause.
•Fenugreek may lower blood glucose, so people with diabetes or those using glucose-lowering medication should monitor for hypoglycemia risk.
•Avoid if allergic to Asteraceae/Compositae/Daisy family plants due to blessed thistle; fenugreek may also be problematic for some people with legume, peanut, or chickpea sensitivity.
•Possible intolerance includes gastrointestinal upset or hypersensitivity; discontinue if allergic symptoms occur.
