That stuff is the most sickly sweet thing I have ever tasted
I have mixed 20ml into a glass of water 2x per day, and never noticed anything.
I remember bill philips writing about it years ago in MM, claiming it pulled the water from under the skin only and forced it into the muscle cell, resulting in a better pump, more vascularity, and a leaner look.
That same issue EAS also introduced, by coincidence, some overpriced Glycerine sachet.
You should be able ot get it in most grocery stores, not sure what section though, been so long.
I dont think it can do you any harm, is just sugar alcohol, but wouldn't guarantee it.
But again be warned, it is very sickly sweet, not a good sweetness like maple syrup, but a pucked lips, watery eyed, followed by some dry reaching, sickly sweetness!
