Tincture vs. Capsules

I've been trying to take a Wormwood /black walnut/cloves tincture for the past few weeks, but it tastes so freaking NASTY I can barely bring myself to take it. And trust me, I've been taking Gold Coin Grass, Coptis and doing Epsom Salts for liver cleansing. I can tolerate some nasty stuff, but nothing is more heinous than the cloves/wormwood crap. So, I end up taking it once a day or less. I know it's not helping me at that dosage.
Is there a decent product the comes in capsules that I could take? I noticed Paragone comes in capsules and a ticture (which is the same as the tincture I'm taking now). Is it OK to just do the capsules?
Any info or recommended products would be welcome. Thanks

MoreThis is a reply to # 618,824There's the paragone - which you know about - and I've been taking a product called Para-GARD (by Tyler). But you have to buy that at a store - can't buy it off the web, because they only sell it to "practicioners."
In Fairfield County, CT (where everthing on average seems to be infinitely more expensive than necessary), it was $24 for 60 capsules. I worked up to 3 capsules, 3x/day and was seeing good results. I have now stopped for a bit of a break as most parasite treatments tend to advocate that.
It doesn't have cloves in it, so I bought some ground cloves and put them into little gel caps, and took 1 of those 3x/day as well.
Funny - I'm thinking of going the OPPOSITE route. Ali says tinctures work better than capsules, but then - if one doesn't like the tincture, it's rather a moot point, eh?

This is a reply to # 618,824I too despise that clove tincture - is there anything nastier? No, I didn't think so!
I used a 'half-cheat' for the clove tincture in paragone - I put the tincture into a cleargel capsule, so that it was nice and contained and completely away from my precious darling tastebuds. Then I broke or poked the end so that it was a tiny bit open. I placed it gingerly on my tongue and quickly swilled it down with water before the liquid could seep out. That way, when I swallowed it, it would release immediately and blend with the water that I chugged down with it, just the way it was supposed to, but I didn't have any of that vile taste in my mouth.- Re: Tincture vs. Capsules bethdogg

That's a good idea. I have some empty gell caps, I suppose I could do that. I like the idea of poking a hole in them too.
I appreciate everyone elses suggestions too. I've tasted some nasty stuff before, but for some reason I just can't handle the taste of the cloves. Especially not three times a day.
Maybe I'll try the Paragone first. I can buy it local and at least the first part of it is in capsules. Thanks.

This is a reply to # 618,824Hi Bethdogg, How are you taking the tincture? straight from the bottle? I use the Paragone with pills and tincture, dropping 15 drops of tincture in a glass of water and taking the pills with that glass of water. It has a taste of cloves and does not taste bad to me. Good results too. Omie

This is a reply to # 618,824Heya,
The only thing I can recommend is buy Dr. Schulze 's D-Tox formula tincture ASAP. After taking this stuff for just 2 days, you will take the clove tincture and it will taste like a warm baked christmas yummy delight. I have truly never expereinced anything as nasty as that stuff, but I'm sure it works great. Also, milk thistle is pretty high on the list of making me rather jam bamboo shoots under my fingernails.
Anyway, I guess tolerance depends on your tastes. For me, you could not pay me cash money to do another salt water cleanse. There is something about drinking salt water that INSTANTLY triggers my hurl reflex.
Could you maybe take the tincture in some juice? I'm trying to think of things that wold overpower that taste, but it is such a strong taste.
Sorry I couldnt be of more help,

This is a reply to # 618,824I try to do everything that tastes nasty in about one ounce of water, sorta like a shot of tequila without dancing on the table and having way too much fun. I take paragone which I did not think tasted too bad anyway in about one oz of water and shoot it down and follow with more water. I do this with ES and I can barely get those disgusting tasting things down. Paragone is rather pleasant IMHO and worked great.
