James here.....

The short answer is yes, but remember this is half life and not last dectable blood level. I do fine on 1X a day dosing. I am considering 2X a day dosing now that I have no side effects from taking it. I used to get sweating and upset right after taking it so I only took it once a day to avoid problems.
