Mix fruit yogurt. You’ll like much better.

Don't torture your self. I put honey, fruit, juice, and yogurt in with the cilantro. I blend it for at least a minute on high. I also put two tablets of Lysine in for the itching. I don't even taste the cilantro. How much of each is obviously up to you. I get a full cup of the drink. No reason to hold your nose. Freeze your cilantro and make sure the drink is cold.

You'll get over pinching your nose. Our tastes will adjust some. I gagged on cooked carrots as a child and love them now, yep, I had to eat them to leave the table. Like frogger I add yogurt, but love the probiotic whole milk plain to which I add a bit of Stevia (the only sweetener allowed on my anti-inflammation diet. I avoid all processed sugar which many flavored yogurts add. Banana does help moe then any other fruit to balance the flavor somewhat. I peel bananas, slice into 2 inch pieces, freeze and put about 3-4 pieces in the smoothie. They don't turn black. Frozen banana takes the place of ice and find like nodgabnoj a smoothie of any type is better cold.

Glad to learn that your doctor is aware that cilantro is helping. I sure wish an MD had shared this information with me, even if only about 45% of us are helped by cilantro, that's a huge percentage.
