Good question, short of a toxicology test I'd look for side effects, e.g. lower extremity pain, edema, increase in fatigue, vascular and vision changes, etc. I think if you try for 4000 to 5000 mg range you'd be putting health at risk. 1500mg should be ok for guys, women only need 100 to 250 mg. The thing about PM is the different isoflavonoids (and there are several iso's in PM) effect on certain enzymes. Men and women are definitely effected differently.

Thanks Lotus....and you make me *blush*
Wow, that IS impressive elaine, congrats. 1500 mg (my opinion) ....entirely up to you though.
