Question - Sublingual vs. Ingestion

[Guest guest]

I am on my 3rd day or so of taking the oleander soup sublingually, and

avoided it for quite a while yesterday because of the " less than

pleasant " taste and mouth feel (like a VERY tannic red wine..)

 

I noticed a reference to mixing the soup with juice to cut the taste,

and plunked 1/4 teaspoon into about 2/3 cup of freshly extracted red

grape juice this morning. I had no trouble drinking it, and only

noticed the taste vaguely over the taste of the grapes.

 

My question is this.. how important is the sublingual route vs. direct

ingestion? I know that vitamin B12 is more potent delivered

sublingually, but are there any studies / experiences from others

concerning this. Trying to avoid a 2nd round of chemo for a regrowth

of skull tissue tumor from burkitt's lymphoma, so if I have to (should)

do sublingual, I certainly will.. but YUCK! :-)

 

Best wishes,

Stephen

Oh bless your heart Stephen, I also know that Vitamin B12 is more

effective when taken sublingually, but as to your other questions, I

am afraid I cannot answer them. Tony is away from his computer at

the moment and will reply to you as soon as he returns, as I am sure

will Dr. Goebel.

 

As for the taste...... Try Pomegranate Juice instead of grape

juice. It seems to kill the taste much better. You may not notice

hardly any taste at all. And another pointer with regard to taking

oleander soup, to kill the taste. Try not to breathe. This seems to

help.

 

Hugs,

Sublingual doses are generally in the micrograms. You are using much more than that if you take a teaspoon or tablespoon. The most important thing is just to get it into your mouth and swallow it. Don't split hairs regarding most efficacious administration methods for now.I put the tablespoon in my mouth, swallow, and immediately chase it with 4 to 16 ounces of water. Sometime I use green tea for the chaser; it doesn't take as many swallows to be rid of the taste.Dr. Goebel May <luellamay129 wrote: Oh bless your heart Stephen, I also know that Vitamin B12 is more effective when taken sublingually, but as to your other questions, I am afraid I cannot answer them.

On the other hand, if you do as I do and suggest, then you simply take

half the dose under the tongue (there is virtually no taste under the

tongue, it is when you swallow that the bitter taste comes in) and mis

the rest with a few ounces of juice, such as pomegranate or dark grape

and then take a good swallow of the juice mix to down the sublinqual

part with, you will scarcely notice the taste and the rest of the

mixed juice will taste quite pleasant.

 

I agree that the main thing is just to swallow the stuff down, but do

it the way I suggest and you can have the best of both worlds with

hardly any unpleasantness at all - certainly much more pleasant than

downing the dose straight and then chasing it.

Mary, Sublingual means "under the tongue".. i.e. the method of placing a substance (usually a liquid) under the tongue to absorb it.

Under the tongue. There is a network of veins under the tongue very close to the skin surface. Some molecules can be readily absorbed into the veins. Hence exists sublingual absorption.Dr. GoebelMaria Stathopoulos <mary1kon wrote: Ok, May. i have a question and please dont laugh because i really dont know. what the word (sublingually means.) regards Mary
