Treat acutely or prevent?

Acute treatment

This recommendation is designed for acute treatment: the nutrients are taken until the symptoms clearly subside — usually over several weeks. If symptoms persist, the further duration of intake belongs in medical hands.

Preventive intake

For prevention, the intake is designed to be long-term: moderately dosed, but regular — as a fixed part of your daily vital nutrient supply.
