Deb,

I don't know but next time I am at clinic I will ask the dietitican how

much per gram of fat and tell you. I have never heard of it actually,

so maybe it's not used here in Oz.

Hi Deb,

We use Ultrase (4500 lipase dose per capsule). My dietician explained that

on average a person needs 1800 units of lipase per gram of fat, so 1 Ultrase has

4500 units of lipase divided by 1800 equals 2.5. Therefore, 1 Ultrase covers

2.5 grams of fat. She also explained that some people need more, some less, and

this would be the average dose. Hopefully this helps.

But how do you get a 10 year old and a 5 year old to eat horseradish? My

girls love marshmallow that won't be a problem and I have had the girls take

vitamin C but really didn't seem to help at least keep the colds away so we

stop taking that. The garlic they love also. Thanks for your help. Deb A
