How can it be effective in the a.m. if it is a short lived and supposedly blocks the endorphin productions just for a short time, which makes your body produce more. Plus, the studies say the endorphins get released about 2-4 a.m.?

So, how can taking it in the a.m. help? I am having insomnia and would like to take it in the a.m., but don't understand how it could be beneficial taking it then.

LDN is supposed to be taken between 9-10 at night to work effectively. Though you *can* take it in the morning if insomnia is an issue, it is not reccomended for maximum efficiency. [Smile]

For best results, take before bedtime as that is when your mody makes the endorphins.
