The recommended daily allowance (RDA) value is set to ensure that large groups of people do not develop serious deficiency diseases. It is therefore a minimum value. Indication of the RDA on labels is required by Dutch law. However, sometimes higher dosages are needed for the intended effect.

The nutrient requirements of children can differ greatly from those of adults, especially during periods of strong growth. It is therefore important to address individual needs as much as possible on a product-by-product basis. If this is unknown and if no specific child dosage is given for a product, as a general guideline, the standard recommended dosage for that product can be converted to the weight of the child (based on an adult weighing 70 kg). Thus, a 23-kg child would need one-third of the adult dosage. The products that are better not used by children will have this indicated.

For all our products, the best time to take is indicated under "time of use". In general, nutrients are more easily absorbed in combination with other substances in the diet. Many of our products are best taken during or right after meals. Some other products, including amino acids, should not be taken with meals. Substances in the diet can affect their absorption. Furthermore, for an even absorption in the body, it is best to spread the intake over the day as much as possible. Thus, three times one capsule is generally better than once three capsules.
