This certainly is a blessing! I had to omit the burnet root as I could not find it. I've been taking it by just putting a half tsp in my mouth and then washing it down with some cold water and then some hot water. I think the hot water is a necessary step- it really makes me feel like this is working a bit more and has really gotten washed down. Be forewarned- don't try and make a tea out of this! I tried that... ewwwwwww. Bitter, bitter, bitter! So, stick with taking it with some water or putting it in a gelatin tablet. It works wonders though- I really feel that when I take it I find that my mind feels much clearer and I feel more like I can take on the task at hand, rather than panicking. When I took this before bed, I found that I slept much more soundly and woke up feeling much more refreshed. Thank you, Sharon for this treasure.
