Here's something that everyone should understand, toxicity. It's understood women metabolize quicker:

Clinical studies indicate that women metabolise drugs which are substrates of CYP3A4 more quickly than men (20–30% increase)4. Analyses have shown around two fold higher levels of CYP3A4 protein in female compared to male tissue samples3,4. and some populations might see up to 10% increase/decrease too.......(e.g. Asian population). http://www.medsafe.govt.nz/profs/PUArtic...4503A4.htm

So, in other words we can't simply suggest someone else should take x amount of an certain herb/med. The statement "YMMV" (your miles may vary), or "everyone is different" is exactly what this means.

This swing in metabolism could be as much as 50% in individuals, crazy huh?. So people, people, my peeps .........please, start herbs at a slow and steady pace, feet first usually ends up in disaster.
