I take a tablespoon a day for myself in milk. I give my horses 1/2 cup a day for worming, I don't like to use chemicals on my animals. Also sprinkle it on my dog and cat food for 3 days once a month to keep them free of worms.

Comment:
Been using this going on two weeks to do a general cleanse/detox as well as lower blood pressure and so far I have much stronger & longer nails and larger and more regular bowel movements. Very important to stay very hydrated tho because it can dry you out and make you constipated if not. Started with 1 tsp a day and gradually upping it to two. Soo far so good.
