Unless CHEWED(eaten) with real food, (something you chew and swallow) there will be a problem.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not disagreeing with this statement, but I'm a bit surprised it would matter much if the fat eaten was in a solid or liquid form.  A typical, healthy adult digests food within a 24-to-72-hour time frame, beginning with a six-to-eight-hour window during which the food enters the stomach and passes through the small intestine.  This sounds like a sufficient amount of time for the absorption of the incivek to take place.  

For those that rely on yogurt, nutrition drinks, ice cream, etc., this could be important information.  Is there any references that Vertex shared in your discussion?  Some on trt have a difficult time keep foods down and will do what the can to get the 20 gms.   Would be nice to see a published reference to support this statement.

Eggnog is delicious BUT******

It is NOT Food!!!!!

I have had discussions with Vertex re: milkfat and liquids with fat for consumption.  Unless CHEWED(eaten) with real food, (something you chew and swallow) there will be a problem.

The problem is that liquids pass thru our bodirs at a rapid pace while foods tske longer to digest.  We MUST HAVE this longer digestion time for tje meds to work and utilize MAXIMUM absorption. Otherwise we pass the meds quickly and reduce the saturation of chemicals introduced into the bloodstream and molecular and cellular level.  

CHEW YOUR FATS AND GO OVER. 20g fat if you must. Just please get to UND and eat!!!!!!  Once the trp tx ends and we finish on. SOC. We lose appetite and weight anyway!  Happy heppy eating!!!!!
