Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,082 | Thanks Brian for spelling it out. I was really glad to see that article pop up in my Google reader set to OCF news since I start each morning by brewing a big pot of hazelnut coffee then pouring a can of Jevity 1.5 into a coffee mug, top it off with coffee and syringe it down my tube. I do two cans of Jevity this way. I then crush my Vitamin D pills and open the CQ-10 capsules (recommended by both my cardio and endo doctors) into the mug and add coffee which actually dissolves them so they go right down the tube. Because almost all the Vitamin D and CQ-10 formulations come only in soft-gels which I can not use, (even the prescription Vitamin D), and since water makes the pills and powders clump together into a sticky goo that won't go down my tube without clogging it, Coffee has been the only way to get these two supplements down. Hmmn - Starbucks as a CCC affiliate? Maybe a little chemo cappuccino corner?
