I am wondering if PM needs to be taken with milk to be better absorbed? Can I just take it with a calcium supplement?
Maybe I can get even better growth if I start taking PM with goat's milk (not cow since I am allergic) or with a take calcium supplement.
Ok thank you. I'm going to start taking PM with raw goat's milk.
I always have to play with dosages for any of the products/herbs
I was searching this morning about "adjusting dosage due to body weight" and I found this ....
I thought it was kinda neat ... don't worry about how many capsules they are saying .... just take someone's dosage that you want to adjust to you ... use the chart about adjusting for age and apply that to their dosage ... and then use the chart about body weight and apply that to their dosage ..... of course you'll need to have an idea of their age and weight but after that it's a snap ....

Thank you karen,
I'm usually more cautious with the herbs I can stall on. For the others, I should be able to take 7 g according to those guidelines. Interestingly, that's about the dose where I got in trouble with maca. And it was the dose I used to take of hops and fenugreek on the day of the party.
It's pretty easy to test with a swelling herb, like goat's rue or fenugreek or black seed. I've got a few swelling experiments planned two weeks from now.

I wasn't offended. It just made me think. I'm hiding in mommy jeans and college sweaters these days, especially when the kids are around. This season, I've been sunbathing once, for an hour. I'm beginning to look like I always wanted too, and I'm hiding! It's like one of these NBE spells or curses that are haunting bryony.
Hi Isabelle,
I can't believe I've been coming here for 9 months and never found this thread!
Just curious... what are the NBE spells and curses? Do you mean that if you take enough to get results you don't want them ?
Hey... when are we going to see a picture of you? From a distance? With clothes? I'm really curious to see what you've been working so hard to get!
Or, just tell me to go away!

I wasn't using it for dosage per say ..... only to adjust someone elses.
Like if you said that you used 3,200 mg of Hops ..... I could adjust for age ..... (3200 x .75 = 2,400 mg) and then adjust for body weight (2,400 x 1.67 = 4008)
Or thats the plan anyway ..... Karen
Yes bryony,
That's what I meant, and some variants: if you take enough, you don't want to transition any more, but you do grow breasts. Or: once you see results, you stop wanting them.
I'm not going to post pictures here. I'm useless with a camera, I hate to ask my daughter to put my breasts on the web, and above all, I learned the hard way. Ten years ago, there were tons of party pics of me on the web. All the beautiful ones are gone now, only the embarrassing ones are still there.
Hi karen,
I see. It really helps: I wasn't aware of an effect of age. The corrections for children are interesting too. So teenagers can take herbs, only at two thirds of the dose.

Hi Isabelle,
I did say "With clothes?" Why not put one of the beautiful ones up?
I'm sure we'd all like to see you - after all your face is your avatar, and that's very nice.
Sorry if I'm being soppy or embarrassing!
