Hi Janet,

It's not a typo. I wish I had more info for you! You can always try calling

Dr. Goldstein and

seeing if he'll explain it to you.

Hi Janet,

I did check with another patient and that is the correct ratio. I wish I had

more info about his

rationale. I know it's so frustrating when you are trying to cobble together

your own path to

healing. I guess calling his office directly would be your best bet for an

explanation.
