HOW MUCH IS A DROPPERFUL?
A dropperful is whatever comes up in the dropper when you squeeze it. Often, it only looks like about a half a dropperful, but whatever you get when you squeeze the dropper… that’s a dropperful. If you counted it (which would be really boring), it would be about 35 drops. There are also about 35 droppersful in every 1-ounce bottle, and about 70 droppersful in every 2-ounce bottle.
WHAT ARE THE STANDARD DOSAGES FOR THE HERBAL FORMULAS?
The standard dosage is 2 droppersful, three times a day. Now, if you’re having problems, you can certainly take 4 droppersful, three times a day, or 4 droppersful, five times a day. For immediate relief, you can even increase your dosage to 6 droppersful, 8 droppersful, 10 droppersful or more. Then, once you start getting results, go back to the standard dosage. The bottom line, if you’re not feeling well and your symptoms are persisting, take more herbs and take them more often. That’s how you heal yourself and create powerful health.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I TAKE TOO MUCH?
Dr. Schulze’s clinical experience with herbs and herbal formulas is that, in the worst-case scenario, you’re going to feel a little sick to your stomach. However, this rarely happens. What usually happens is, when you take larger doses, you get well. So don’t be afraid to really increase your dose when you’re not feeling well.
WHAT ARE THE EXPIRATION DATES FOR THE HERBAL FORMULAS?
All of Dr. Schulze’s Specific Formulas are tonics. Unopened, naturally preserved tinctures have an indefinite shelf life. Fifty years from now an unopened bottle of one of Dr. Schulze’s formulas would still be good to use, and just as potent. However, once opened, we recommend consuming them within one year. For the “dry” products (e.g. SuperFood Plus, Intestinal Formula #1, Intestinal Formula #2, HerbalMucil Plus, Detox Tea, K-B Tea and SuperSlim packets), these should be consumed within one year of purchase. And, once opened, they should be consumed within six months.
