So I'm posting again about the same bottle of unused SN, but this time I really do plan to use it. I ordered this SN around Nov 2019 and have had it since then in a dark cabinet, completely sealed, never opened. It's obviously around 4 years old but I was wondering if it was still good to use. Will it be effective? It's clumped up, but idk someone pls help. I can't seem to find another source:/

I think that if you kept it in a dark cabinet away from sunlight and never opened it, it should still be okay

should I take more than the recommended? also how sure is the blood test? if it passes the blood test does that mean it's for sure still effective??

I don't know much about SN but if I were you I would just take the recommended amount since using more can cause vomiting, and I would trust it as long as it passed the blood test, there have been examples of people using 20 year old SN. Again I don't know much about SN, but that's just what I think

I don't know about SN specifically but generally sythetic stuff doesn't really expire (just loses potency after some years) and minerals tend to stay as potent as declared after expiring for quite a while. Most minerals have a 2-3 year expiration date which for manifacturing regulary gets extended for another year upon request.

As suggested you should test it. As far as I know theres a blood and an aquarium test.

so if it passes the blood test do you think the potency is still good?

It should be okay to use considering that you haven't opened it yet and it was stored in a dark cabinet.
