Hi Buckland …There’s taste and there’s taste! The issue of tongue sensing can be overcome by use of a capsule which is what BRI have done. The more significant issue is what happens in the stomach. Below is not an exact analogy but close enough to illustrate the problems facing BRI and they seek to create and deliver a high dosage formulation which is tolerable and efficacious. No small order!! I have taken the following with minor editing from The reaction of the stomach doesn’t immediately make sense. Bitterness can be the result of all kinds of different chemical combinations, only some of which are dangerous. The stomach holds on to food only in response to bitter flavors, and not actual dangerous poisons. How does the stomach know what’s bitter and what’s not? The stomach has taste receptors of its own. After all, taste buds on the tongue are just chemical identifiers that are hooked up to our conscious mind in order to get us to keep wolfing down certain chemicals. The taste receptors in the stomach aren’t hooked up to our conscious brain, but they are hooked up to some kind of sensory response system, and when that sensory system notes a lot of bitter-tasting food, it puts the brakes on digestion.”

Great analogy, Have research BRI and its their core business to formulate Medications for Human Consumption. Many Treatments are brought to them in Chemical formulation stage and BRI add whats necessary, Carrier agents , colour, flavour etc slow release capsules.
