I know that one! Shaklee stated their supplement dosage was for a 140lb average person. Course that was before the airlines etc had to bump up the average as Americans weigh more now! So if I ignore Shaklee's statement that they are for human consumption only, I divide out the dose by the weight. I rounded up for ease. But I HATED trying to squeeze the fish oil out of the capsule and ending up with fish fingers and Pepper didn't like it. So I resorted to fish oil from KV Supply during her illness.
