Aha Chiquitabella,
That gives a clue already. If it doesn't say "standardized extract", they just filled up a drum of fresh, crushed herb with wodka until the herb was completely under the liquid level. My 200 g is 1300 ml. So 4 g, my daily dose, is 26 ml!
If it smells like 35 vol% liquor, you can increase your dose 6 times. If it's more water and less alcohol, they evaporated the alcohol and some of the water, and the dose of 4 ml could be right. If it doesn't smell like alcohol at all, it's some sort of tea, and who knows how strong that is
