Zinc, milligrams, kilograms and pounds.

[Guest guest]

On this list most of the people are from the US so we use our particularly

pathological

system of measurement, where common things like people and food are measured in

pounds, ounces, cups, etc. while things like medicines and supplements are

measured in

metric units like milligrams.

The correct amount of zinc to try on a kid who probably has a mercury problem is

Mg zinc = pounds of kid + 20.

If you know your kid's weight in kilograms, the formula is

Mg zinc = 2.2 X kg of kid + 20.

If you happen to use stones I think it is 1 stone is 14# so

Mg zinc = 14 X stone weight of kid + 20.

These numbers give an APRPOXIMATE amount that is likely to be helpful. It is OK

to use a

bit more or less, or to adjust amounts to see if that helps.
