The Buried Treasure Liquid Vitamin Advantage

In order for vitamins and minerals to be utilized by the body, they must be absorbed by the blood cells from the bloodstream after passing through the digestive tract. Studies have questioned whether tablets, capsules, and softgel caps dissolve quickly enough to be effective, if they dissolve at all! Therefore, the key to nutrient effectiveness is directly related to the amount of active ingredients, the rate of their delivery and assimilation into the bloodstream. Liquid is up to 98% absorpbtion compared to 18% in pill or capsule form.

In order for nutrients to be bioavailable (the percent of active ingredients that actually reaches the bloodstream), the digestive system is required to break down the binders, fillers, and other excipients used to hold the active ingredients together in tablets. Gelatin capsules and softgel caps require the break down of plasticizers.  As well beef and pork byproducts which are used as ingredients in most capsules. Artificial colors are often added to softgel caps to ensure a constant color.
