# Organ Supplement Serving Size Guide

Source: https://huntressorgansupplement.com/blog/organ-supplement-serving-size/

Serving size is where organ supplement labels differ most, and where comparisons often go wrong. Two bottles can look alike and deliver very different amounts. The fix is reading three numbers in order: milligrams per serving, capsules per serving, and per-organ amounts where a blend gives them.

## Milligrams per serving first

Total dried organ per serving is the headline number. A serving might be 1,500 milligrams or 3,000, and that gap matters more than any wording on the front of the bottle. Our [label reading guide](/blog/how-to-read-an-organ-supplement-label/) puts this check first for the same reason.

## Capsule count is arithmetic

Divide the serving size by the capsule count and you get the fill per capsule, usually a few hundred milligrams. A high capsule count alone is not a flaw, and a low count alone is not a virtue. Only the total amount tells you what a serving delivers. The drying side behind those totals is covered in [freeze-dried organ supplements](/blog/freeze-dried-organ-supplements/).

## Blends and per-organ amounts

In a blend, a combined total hides the split between organs. Where a label lists per-organ milligrams, use them. Where it does not, you know the total and nothing about how much is liver versus other organs, which limits any comparison. Our [beef heart supplement](/blog/beef-heart-supplement/) page shows the single-organ side, where the amount is stated directly.

## A one-minute comparison

Line up two bottles: total milligrams, capsule count, per-organ amounts if given, and the vitamin A line if liver is included. Four checks, about a minute, and the real difference between the bottles is usually obvious.

## FAQ

### What is the most important serving size number?

Total milligrams of dried organ per serving. It decides what a serving delivers, more than capsule count or front-of-bottle wording.

### Why do capsule counts vary so much?

Capsules hold a few hundred milligrams each. A larger serving needs more capsules, so count follows total amount.

### How do I judge serving size in a blend?

Look for per-organ milligram amounts. If only a combined total is listed, the share of each organ is not stated.
