More Thoughts on Vitamins
I have read that liquid vitamins are easier for the body to handle in that they are ingested more quickly than the tablet form. I’m going to research this further, and I will write on it in the near future. It would seem logical. Some writers say that a lot of the tablet-type vitamins go right through the body because they are not assimulated as quickly as the liquid form. It seems probable. I’ll check it out.
One thing I want to point out is that It is better to have small pills of vitamins 2 or 3 times a day than one heavy dose say in the morning. This is because the body will use what it needs at the time and discard the rest. For example: I take a 1000 mg vitamin C capsule in the morning. It would be better for me to take a 500 mg in the morning and one at supper time. Other vitamins are the same.
As I pointed out in an earlier post – the oil soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) should be taken with oil or some fat – like at a meal otherwise they will not be absorbed by the body. And these vitamins are very helpful to our bodies and our cardiovascular systems.
