I notice that in almost every family today are concern and aware the important of taking supplement to promote their health. Most people choose a herbal or all-natural supplement because there are proven to be effective yet safe to consume.
But to gain maximum results from that supplement, there are other things to consider instead of just bought it and place it in the cabinet or storeroom.
Here are 7 best practices you may consider after you buy any herbal (all-natural) supplement products:
#1 Storage
Store in a dry place below 30 degrees centigrade (86 degrees Fahrenheit). Most of medicines especially herbal (all-natural) supplement should be stored at room temperature in a dark, dry place. Do not place them in bathroom, the warm temperature and humidity could drive down the product qualities.
#2 Expire Date
Take a note or highlight the expire date. Most expire date was printed on the bottle and could easily disappeared by time. You may put a clear plastic tape to protect the expire date label / printing. It is good practice if you check all your supplement supplies every 2 – 3 months to make sure they are not expired and safe to consume. If you must throw them out then make sure to do it properly.
#3 Sunlight
Avoid herbal supplement from direct sunlight. It may cause the product to deteriorate, to the point where it loses almost all its potency.
#4 Dosage
The manufacturer usually gives you a certain dosage and put it on the box or bottle. This dosage is recommended based on the product formulation to give you maximum results without unwanted side effects. So, only take the right amount of the recommended dosage.
#5 Patient
Some supplement was design to give you the best result when it is taken in a certain time (like in the morning or before bed time) and period (3 – 6 months). Take the supplement on a regular basis and don’t stop in the middle unless you have serious healthy condition after taking the supplement. Herbal components usually work slower than prescription drugs, but if you patient enough to wait, they will deliver significant results.
#6 Children
If you have children then always keep out of reach of children and away from the eyes. Do not refer to medicine or supplement as candy to your children, they love candy and will seek for them!
#7 Pour Carefully
If your supplement comes in a bottle, pour carefully the pills or tables to the bottle cap or tray, and pour excess back to the bottle with the bottle cap or tray and not with your bare hand. Direct contact with your palm of your hand (or wet hand) may deteriorate the rest of pills / tables in the bottle. Close the bottle tightly and properly. The tablet’s color normally changed or become darker after several open & closes the bottle. Don’t worry, it is normal for all-natural herbal supplement in form of tablets.
