I wonder if that is what is to be given after each loose motion? I'll see what's in the BNF. Those quantities seem very small. I wonder if that is what is to be given after each loose motion?

Also it might be worth it asking around as to whether the 24 hours is a recommendation by the WHO itself or the manufacturers. i.e is it obligatory or merely a good thing to do. Dont think I really answered the question but that is my two cents...

I've been following the development of the Aidpod for quite a long time now and, as a graduate product designer (now working in marketing), I'm genuinely impressed by the jump forward with this design. Well done PI and Simon! Brilliant!

The other thing is that the branding is carried on the insert. It's not embedded in the packaging which means it can be easily changed so we will be able to respond properly and completely to feedback that we get from the focus group work planned with our client group. On recycling. We are focussing more on re-use than recycling at the moment. The final ADK package will have a re-usable lid and we plan to emboss the container so that it can be used as a measuring jug. Thanks Magda.

I like the fact that it is transparent so that people can see the contents. Is there a way to recycle them, too? Best regards, Magdalena Serpa Dear Simon,  this is very good.
