business I’ve received a number of questions about what exactly is the best way to spread out and take your Clear5 tablets, so here is a basic guide for new customers who want to know all the details.
Personally, I recommend most first-time users start with 6 tablets per day. Although many users get great results with 4 tabs, I can’t know from here what exactly your skin type or acne severity is, nor how efficiently your body processes vitamins (we have some users who are very reactive to vitamins, and start out with only 2 tabs). As such, I recommend the 6-tab dose since it maxmizes your success rate, is just as safe, and even if it provides a little more than you need, chances are that you will see results that much faster, and thus be able to decrease your dosage sooner as well.
The important point is to spread out your dosage to at least 3 intervals per day. This ensures a high rate of absorbance and the regular release of out time-released tablets, which release for about 6 hours (as long as current technology allows for water-soluble tablets). For a 6-tablet regimen, take 2 in the morning, 2 in the afternoon, and 2 before bed. This is the easiest starting dosage (esp. since students don’t need to take a pill to school for lunch), and seems to be just as effective as using 4 daily intervals (each meal and before bed) for most 6-tablet users . Taking Clear5 with food does not appear to have much, if any, effect on success. However, combining Clear5 with meals does lessen the chances of stomach irritation that is sometimes felt by first-time users (this naturally stops happening after 2-3 days, once your body adjusts to the vitamin).
Always take those tablets with plenty of water (2 glasses is best). Clear5 tabs are easy-to-swallow, but drinking enough water makes sure they go down easily, and let’s face it, most people don’t drink enough water. That water helps flush out toxins, hydrates your cells, and makes it easier for the chemical reactions Clear5 enables to take place. Water speeds the transport of healthy nutrients into your cells and unwanted wastes out of them.
Note that for those who would rather conserve their first bottle and start with 4 tablets, in this case I recommend spreading out to the full 4 intervals per day. Take 1 tablet with breakfast, lunch, dinner and before bed. At the lower dosage, this makes sure your absorbance is as high as it can be by avoiding competition and maintaining the release of vitamin B5 for most of those 24 hours.
Once you begin lowering your dosage, do so gradually. Decrease your dosage by 1 tablet and maintain that dosage for a few weeks, then decrease another tablet, etc. Try to keep your doses spread out until you get down to 1-2 tablets per day.
