The labeling suggests a "Serving Size: 200 milligrams," with directions to "take 50 to 200 mg up to three times daily" using an accurate milligram scale.

A tablespoon (8.1 grams) has been associated with chest pain, irregular heartbeat, and death.

The products are sold in large quantities (e.g., 1 kg contains 5,000 servings, 10 kg contains 50,000 servings), with each package containing a potentially lethal
