      You’re obviously not accounting for the processing losses in the manufacturing process.

      Further since powders are usually dehydrated to some extent, I expect there to be significant moisture losses.

      If we assume the baby human to be roughly similar in composition to adult humans, they are close to 70% moisture.

      I think a more accurate estimate would be something in the range of 15 - 20 pounds.
