📈 Infographic Design Elements

1. Mushroom Icons Scaled by Dose

Visual representation: 1 mushroom icon = 0.5g

  • Microdose: ⅕ mushroom icon
  • Light: 2-3 icons
  • Common: 5-7 icons
  • Strong: 7-10 icons

Pros: Intuitive, visual

2. Graduated Color Bar

Continuous spectrum від green → yellow → red

Shows: Risk та intensity increase

Best for: Quick reference cards

3. Comparison Objects

Relate dose до familiar items:

  • 0.1g = grain of rice
  • 1g = small dried cap
  • 3.5g = "eighth" (standard)

4. Timeline + Effects

Combined dosage та temporal visualization

X-axis: Time (T+0 до T+8h)

Y-axis: Intensity

Multiple curves: Different doses

⚖️ Body Weight Adjustment Chart

Body Weight Light Dose Common Dose Strong Dose
45-55 kg (100-120 lbs) 0.6-1.2g 1.2-3.0g 3.0-4.5g
55-70 kg (120-155 lbs) 0.75-1.5g 1.5-3.5g 3.5-5.0g
70-85 kg (155-185 lbs) 0.9-1.7g 1.7-4.0g 4.0-5.5g
85-100 kg (185-220 lbs) 1.0-2.0g 2.0-4.5g 4.5-6.0g
100+ kg (220+ lbs) 1.2-2.2g 2.2-5.0g 5.0-7.0g

Note: Body weight adjustment є rough approximation. Individual sensitivity varies significantly due до genetics, tolerance, stomach contents, та инші factors.
