WHEN I remember to take mine, I pour a glass of water. I put the kelp on a tsp, I take a big sip of the water and immediately upon swallowing it, I throw the spoonful of Thorvin in the mouth, and IMMEDIATELY wash it down with another slug of water. Pretty painless.
However, I can't even make this method work for either brewer's yeast, or dessicated liver! Sharon On Brooks' advice, I have been buying granulated Thorvin kelp and feeding it to my dogs. The 2 young labs love it and gobble it up, the senior Shelty mix will only eat it mixed with yogurt. I give them each 2 heaping teaspoons a day. I bought it from Hoeggar's Goat Supply, BTW. For me, however, I'm having difficulty making the stuff palatable. I tried Brooks' method of mixing with lecithin, YECHH. I'm able to sneak in a half teaspoon into my morning green smoothie, any more and the taste and texture get nasty. I also tried mixing with applesauce, YECHH again. Anyone found a good way to choke this stuff down? I've thought about putting it into the large 500mg gelatin capsules, but I have esophageal spasm and large pills literally get stuck in my throat. -- Alan Jones
