I think you confused people because ml is a liquid measure, so people assumed you were talking about the CGD when it has been mixed with water.

Ok, a 5ml measure of CGD powder weighs approx 2.5g. I am talking about the 2-part diet though, the ready-mixed may be of differing density.

There is 113g in 4oz - so using 2.5g per day would last you around 45 days - i.e. a month and a half.

why not mix up a large batch to the constitency you want then freeze it in an ice cube tray then you will know how much you have!
