For what it is worth, in the last week or so, I began an experiment. My new method is to squirt a dropper of the Iowa Select extract under my tongue and then mix 500 - 1,000 mg of PM with it, holding it under my tongue for about 3 - 5 minutes, finally swallowing it. I do this 3 or 4 times a day. The taste is really quite bearable, and it seems to have "re-launched" my, err, changes. I don't know if the powdered PM actually is absorbed in the mouth, perhaps not. But it may be that some is absorbed that way, and the balance through the digestive tract.

Lotus - I would be interested in your thoughts about this method.
