US-Metric

All of our products are sold in metric measures (grams, milliliters etc). For simplicity we give most instructions in level teaspoons. Our American labels tend to contain a mixture of US and metric measures.

Our computerised supplements plans give instructions in teaspoons and pinches. Remember that supplementation is not an exact science so all application rates are guidelines.
