You can put the liquid into empty capsules and swallow the capsules, so you don't have to taste the GSE. Can get empty capsules at health food stores or online.

I have used GSE off and on through treatment. The only time I was told to not mix was when I was taking Mepron, which is now, so I haven't been using it.

Yes, it tastes pretty bad, but I still do the extrat instead of pills since I had been told it penetrated better. Whether that is true or not, I have no way of comparing since I have only used that.

Good luck.
