Yeah, the original “300” was flawed. Not solely because of the percentages, but because of the amount of iron itself you can get out of blood being over estimated by a factor of about 10. Somebody actually did an experiment to find out how much iron you can get from blood, there used to be a video on YouTube of it, and the amounts were way less than the original 300 estimate.

So, iron is only step 1. Humans are carbon based lifeforms, so I’m guessing that carbon is also sorted, that’s step 2.
There’s plenty of other elements in the human body, like phosphorus and sulphur, but I’m guessing that it’s going to take more than 300 adults.

And I’m guessing Gowron has killed a lot more than 300 adults. On an average Tuesday.
Mind you, those might not all be human…
So, add some Romulan blood for that sweet copper.
The pink-blooded Klingons are extra irony.
That or it’s Pepto-Bismol. Who knows?
It’s a Tums festival!

If we can’t have our warp matrix run on the bones of orphans i can’t find a venture capital firm to fund it.
