Hello to the one wanting to know how much l-theanine to give her 70 lb. Down' syndrom child,

Using Dr. Schultz's preferred method of body weight to figure dosage for children and pets:

Knowing that adult dosage is figured for body weight of l50 lbs. you can readily see that a 70 lb. child would be slightly less than 1/2 the adult dosage. If he weighed 75 lbs. it would be exactly 1/2 the adult dosage.

I understand that a person with Down Syndrome has overactive GABA receptor sites, therefore you would be better off giving Gingko to decrease the GABA. You may want to check it out before continuing.
