amounts in teas and decoctions

[Guest guest]

  So presumably for a decoction someone is using about 1oz / pint and a half,

that's about

  30g.  Boil down to 1 pint.  If they take 1/2 a mug three times a day 90g is

going to last

  4 days, they'll need appx 200g / week.  But the old dosage was a wine glass

full.  It's a

   while since I've prescribed a  decoction I think maybe I said about a 1/3 of

a mug? A mug

   a day that would be 30g every two days that's 420g for four weeks.

  What are other people using?  Or are you calculating amounts accurately

according to

  the BHP.

  100g of something light as a tea would presumably last about a month.  How

about

  something heavy like berberis or fennel?

  Kind regards
