Peggy has a good idea, though not a very tasty one. By taking the powder from the capsule, she prevents the oxidation problem and the capsule breakdown problem. And it's true, saliva is the body's first source of digestive enzymes. On the other hand, the largest part of digestion will still take place in the small intestine, and some supplements use special capsules to make sure no digestion takes place until then because stomach acid will destroy the absorption of many supplements, such as peppermint oil. So it's more complicated than it seems. The best way to avoid this is to eat right -- these are supplements, not the primary source of nutrients.
thanks guys I think I will stick to the liquid as some of the tabs do seem to give me heart burn I dont find taking them too easy ,supplements do have an effect dont they ..on the stomach.
I will take a lot of the capsules, open them and put them between my cheek and gum. This frees the stomach and liver from having to break them down.
According to everything I have read, liquid is better assimilated in the body, because the others don't always break down, and this causes a "back log" if you will, on the liver.
Depends on the supplement. Liquid gets into the system faster and more efficiently -- tablets and capsules have to break down. Some tablets never break down. But liquids also oxidize faster, as they are exposed to the air every time you open the bottle. It also depends on the brand and the form of the mineral; some are absorbed better than others, and some are absorbed better by a particular individual than others. And it depends on what fillers and binders are in the tablet. Overall, capsules probably are best, as they protect the product from oxidation (you have this problem with powder as well) and dissolve better than tablets.
So do they work the same way I hear some people doing this sublingual , maybe they get absorbed by the body quicker/better? The liquid I take from the health food store is pina colada flavored makes it tase nicer , dont you hate those foul tasting supplements I take that wheat grass ...green stuff when I am in there its a great store called Sprouts, lots of samples and goodies in there...... you can eat healthily as you walk around ..LOL
