The indicated dose: 2 capsules, twice a day
Each capsule contains 500 mg of soursop leaf powder, with no sugar, no gluten and no preservatives. The dose indicated on the 130-capsule box is 2 capsules twice a day, i.e. 4 capsules per day.

What is soursop used for? Traditional uses and what is known
Soursop is a small tropical tree of the Annonaceae family, grown in Latin America, Africa and Southeast Asia. Its leaves have long been used in the traditional practices of these regions, as an infusion or a decoction. They contain, among other things, antioxidants and acetogenins, compounds studied in the laboratory.
These traditional uses and studies are not proof of effectiveness in humans. Soursop capsules are a food supplement: they do not replace a varied and balanced diet, a healthy lifestyle or medical advice.

Customer reviews
"Every winter it was the same thing: a series of small ailments that left me exhausted. I decided to act early and started taking Soursop capsules in the autumn. I followed the dosage indicated on the box. The result went far beyond my expectations. I got through the winter with incredible energy and fitness. I felt stronger, more resilient. For me, Soursop has become my go-to reflex for facing the cold season with complete peace of mind. It is a remarkably effective natural support for feeling protected."
"My job is very demanding and generates a lot of stress, which I know has an impact on my immunity. I was looking for a natural product to help me cope. Graviola capsules were a wonderful discovery. I take the recommended dose every day, without exception. Since then, I feel much more resilient under pressure. I feel that my body recovers better and that my overall vitality is at a much higher level. It is very reassuring to know that you are giving your body such a high-quality, natural boost."
"As a mother of young children, I am constantly exposed to all kinds of germs. Staying fit is an absolute necessity! A naturopath told me about the benefits of Soursop for supporting natural defences. I adopted the capsules because they are practical. I am amazed by the results. I feel much less vulnerable, and I feel like I have a real inner shield. It is simple, effective, and I feel fully able to look after my little family. I recommend it to all mothers who want to stay at their best."
"I added Soursop to my well-being routine more than a year ago and I couldn't do without it now. My goal was to maintain solid immunity all year round. I found my cruising rhythm with the recommended dosage. What I appreciate most is this constant feeling of quiet strength. I no longer feel seasonal fatigue and I feel generally more robust. It is an investment in my health that I am happy to make every day. The capsules are pure and of high quality, which is an essential criterion for me."
