The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

I take three of the 100 mg. capsules a day and it has really helped with depression. I didn't notice the full effects until about 2-3 weeks, so try to hang in there if you don't feel that it's benefitting much. This was a last attempt before trying another anti-depressant. I was previously on Celexa to help with mood swings/depression while taking high doses of prednisone. I believe this works nearly as well and doesn't have the Celexa side-effects of weight gain and mild personality changes.

I took my first pill as directed, before bed. I noticed I was sleepy, and I slept well, and woke feeling good. I really noticed t, so I spent time on here reading a lot of the reviews. Then I decided maybe I'll take one in the morning as well. But half hour later I was lazy, tired. So then I decided, nope. I'll just see how it effects me taking it at night because I don't want to feel sleepy during the day. So I've been taking 1 pill before bed for a couple weeks. And I kid you not, I sleep better and wake up better, but best of all, my mood has completely changed from being fatigued, mildly depressed, lazy, hard to get outta bed...to feeling good every day since I stared taking these. I'm happier, less things bother me, I don't know how to explain it, but I spent a lot more time in bed alone then I do now! Who knows, it could be the sunshine, summer is here now. But I believe it has worked for what I wanted it for and that was to improve my mood. And I will keep taking one a night before bed as long as it keeps working. Also, as an added bonus...less hangovers! Haha. Seriously though, any night that I've drank wine...even late nights, I get up feeling good the next day. So 5 stars from me!
