SSKI does not taste bad at all. I mix my squirt of SSKI in a few ounces of water and take it 3 times during the night. SSKI is also clear in color so you can apply directly to the nails or skin in case of fungus.
You are on the right track, & best to you. My lungs just LOVE SSKI! My lungs also LOVE Vitamin D3. When I feel a chest cold coming on, I double my D3 to 20,000 IU for a week, and the sniffles vanish.
