When studies reference very high consumption in rats, it normally means above and beyond a dosage that any rational human being could ever consume. I wouldn't worry about that whatsoever.

Good point Monger. Any idea what ideal human consumption levels would be? I'm thinking about trying this out...
I'm curious cause I was looking at true protein's leucine and in the 100g packs it says serving size is 500mg, but if you buy it by the pound it says serving size is 5g. Big difference there.
