Now, if you consider NucleoMaxx has 36g packets at 17% nucleosides, that right there would indicate a safe dose of uradine between 0 and approximately 6 grams.
Taking 71.7mg/kg (number from the study) on your 75 kg human being (165 pounds) would equate to a 5.3 g dose, which is consistent with the range of 0 to 6.
Now, I'm not saying go ingest 5 grams of this stuff, or perhaps 1.5 grams 2 to 3 times daily, just that this dosage range seems reasonable given the study numbers and the NucleoMaxx numbers.
In looking at the study, which is the Feb. 15, 2005 Biological Psychiatry journal, the dose (on rats, not humans) which became effective for the Forced swim test (animal antidepressant model) was 71.7 mg/kg when co-administered with Omega 3 fatty acids for 10 days.
