Instructions

• 1

  Obtain your supplements from a reputable source. Look for a product that contains the juice of the pulp and skin. Avoid products that use extracts from the seeds, because the seeds are not normally consumed.

• 2

  Read the product label for appropriate dosing instructions and count out the correct number of pills. If the front of the bottle reads, “1,000 mg,” that may mean per serving, which may require you to take more than one pill at a time.

• 3

  Swallow the pills with a glass of water. Many manufacturers also suggest that you take your pills with a meal.
