Keep in mind that there is no 1:1 mapping between mg/kg/day for mice and for humans due to difference in metabolism. http://www.ergo-log.com/calculatethehumandosage.html http://www.ergo-log.com/calculatethehumandosage.html gives a couple of useful formulas to calculate the actual dosage for humans and it's much more reasonable.
