EXACT times to take herbs? Would like to know everyone's habits.

Hello all! Just wondering what times of day everyone is taking herbs. I know they are supposed to be spaced out (by 8 hours if possible), but I have trouble taking my WU at the EXACT same time everyday. My classes start at different times in the morning, plus over weekends, I tend to sleep in more. So I usually take my first dose anywhere from 9am-11am which shifts the other doses accordingly (ie, 4-6 afternoon dose, 11-1am night dose). Is this ok? There is a about a 2 hour window that I try to take my herbs, but it differs depending on the day. How is everyone else going about this? Would it be better for me to stick to exact times of day? Also, how do you remember to take them??? I am having some trouble with that and I end up being late sometimes. Any help would be apreciated!

I didn't know we were supposed to takethem at the same time every day?
I'm also in school andit's hard to take them at the same time, or even the same doses. The doses and times vary for me,however, I take most of everything atnight before I go to bed... I like this because this way I'm bloated while I'm sleeping..not during school as much.

One of the best times to take your herbs is at bedtime , cause thats when the growth hormone in your body is at its peek, first 90 minutes of sleep is strongest time period for growing.

I don't know that the exact time matters, but spacing the doses out does seem to help. I take mine around 7am, 3pm, and 10pm.

Deborah swears that is the best growing time. At bedtime, first 90 minutes of sleep is peek growth hormone activity. Anyway I have switched and take my herbs at nite so I will get back to you on this in a couple of weeks. PrettySoulful on this forum said it made big difference in her growth.

Should all the pills be taking at night? Or just make sure there is at least one dose before bed?, I am curious about this, my pills usually fall at 8am, 3pm, and 9pm ~ bed by 9:30ish.

The idea of spacing your herbs is to that the body is never "without" herbs. I think I've read that it's best to space them about 8 hours apart for maximum benefit, with your last dose being before massage and bed. So, 3 times a day, 8 hours apart - for WU users anyway.

I don't take that many.SP, fennel and wild yam. I take 1 fennel and 1 wild yam in morning, then at bedtime, I save my strongest,,, for me, Saw Palmetto, at bedtime along with another fennel and wild Yam. I know its important to keep herbs in system through out the day, but don't forget to take a good bedtime dose. Also try and do massage and heat pad at bedtime for the most benefits you can give yourself. Remember I talking indvidual herbs. Someone on Wonder Up, may take a Saw Palmetto with their bedtime wonderup pills. Try and regulate herb routine so that the strongest pills or herbs are being taken at night.
