Could I add this to a smoothie or juice instead of a drop on the tongue? Would be easier for my Dad to take that way....

My wife and me have done that before but don't know how to measure the delivery rate, nor, do we know what affect the agitation of making the smoothie would have on the emulsion. However, because you're not heating it, and just adding it to the smoothie, if you stir it in at the end of your ingredients cycle, it should be very little different than placing it under the tongue. The fastest, most efficient way for the body to absorb this vitamin D3 emulsion is from under the tongue, but ingesting it in any way is better than not taking it. Nothing beats 20 minutes of skin exposure to the Sun (for vitamin D), but we've found that we actually do feel better when adding this emulsion to our daily intake of nutrients, especially, because we live in the northeast, and can't always get vitamin D producing sunshine from Fall to Spring. We think that this is one of the best products of it's type on the market today.

My Naturopathic doctor suggested placing drops on your food if you don't want to place them on your tongue.

You could add it to anything. It has no taste so it would mix into about anything. The small drop on the tongue is not bad though.

I often add mine to my smoothie in the morning! It also tastes fine out of the bottle but I put it on a spoon to control the number of drops.

Yes, you can add it to a protein shake/smoothie. I did notice a very mild flavor difference but not enough to bother me at all. I recommend that you use a blender otherwise it won't mix very well . . . hope this is helpful to you.

I have put yogurt in my smoothie many times but never tried it by itself but I am sure it would be fine. Joint Vibrance has an orange juice taste to it so keep that in mind.

I add it to a the low sodium tomato juice V8 with 4 ice cubes and blend in my blender. Of course this only helps if you like drinking v8 juice!!! This is how I drink it every morning!

Only if you are making the smoothies in a blender first..but you can easily use this to drink smoothies! (just not to make them)

Yes it's easy, the taste indeed is hard to swallow but that's if you're going raw with like a table spoon and what not i'd do that normally and try to take some honey with it after like a chaser but I always wanted to try it with a smoothie or what ever this dude was saying i'd recommend that for kids assuming the taste would be way better probably not even taste it then

I mix it with my protein shake... I would assume a smoothie would be fine. You have to mix it with something other than water (does not taste too good).

That's how I make my smoothie with almond milk it does not harm the taste of the smoothie in my opinion. Plus it adds nutritional value.

It's not pleasant. My husband mixes his dose with apple juice which helps a lot. Considering that it is keeping him alive, the taste is really not that important to him.

You can add it to juice. It really does have an orange taste. Kind of like the orange creamsicle.

I used to do this with vitamin capsules when my children were young. You can also break the capsule open and just pour it into the mouth. It is not all that bad tasting. But, if the person tends to be fussy, use the juice.

I don't know if it's possible, in my opinion. After my first order of this, I decided to switch to the capsules. Same formula in a simple pill rather than gag this down. To use of the rest of this container, however, I mix it in when I make pesto sauce and pasta. Not noticeable then. Also, my toddler doesn't mind it in his smoothies, so I add it to his Strawberry banana yogurt smoothies which is great cause he can't swallow the pills, but is now still getting the healthy benefits.

Hi, I mix it with fresh fruit, almond milk, add to smoothies or simply with almond milk (I don't drink milk, but you can use regular milk).

I mix it with a few ounces of V-8 juice. I make my own from the garden each year but store bought should work. I've also mixed it into my green smoothies.

Cake! you can mix it with any kind of juice or make a fruit shake. But like i said i spent alot of money on this product and didnt get any results!!

I have not used it in anything other than a smoothie. I believe it would work as an additive to another food as it blends well.

Why of course, I usually use the ice feature button on the HealthMaster it gives it a jolt so the blades crushes everything nicely! You still want to add half -1 cup of liquid ie almond milk, coconut water, orange juice whatever you like. Enjoy your smoothies!
