Get Going!

Once you have your supplement materials, start taking 2 capsules each day: 1 in the morning and 1 at night. 

Each evening you'll receive a text checking on any symptoms of illness that day (respiratory, gastrointestinal, dermal, or other). If none, text "no," and you are finished for the day. If yes, you will take a 2-minute survey about your symptoms. 

There will be 3 surveys during the study on days 1, 60, and 90.
