Abstract

Individualized responsive dosing dietary supplement systems, compositions, methods of dosing, and processes of producing the same, which allow a consumer to generate individualistic biological responses/effects. More specifically, a dietary supplement system for generating individualized biological conditions/responses which utilizes ultra-low dosage amounts of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, co-enzymes, and/or other nutrients in a bio-active delivery system which preferably avoids first pass metabolism, such that an individual may take multiple doses of the same or different dietary supplement based on varying desired biological response within each 24 period is also disclosed.
