Hi, Just for the record, these doses are many times the doses Omura recommends in various published documents, which is not to say that they are not appropriate doses for you. I do not recall exactly offhand, but I think the daily doses per Omura's work apropos cancer and other diseases, were about 260/180 respectively, which is a pretty typical ordinary gel-cap dosage.
Note, however, that Omura has methods of increasing the uptake of medicines to the needed sites; ordinary doctors do not know how to do this. Please keep us posted on your results, and good luck!
