Guest guest Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 Liquid Multivitamins - The wave of the future The Natural Health Report: December 2000 (NC)-Supplementing our diet with a multivitamin is more important today than it has ever been. With the mineral depletion of our soil by modern farming techniques and the many demands we face in our fast-paced world, maintaining a healthy diet is truly becoming a challenge. Supplementing nutrition therefore is very important to good health today. But are you getting all the supplemental nutrition you need from your vitamin tablets? Tablets are held together with binders and coated with substances to help them keep their perfect shape. This requires a lot of stomach acid to break through this coating and break down the tablet. Some people, especially children and the elderly, don't have enough stomach acid to actually access the nutrients in the tablet. Consequently, these tablets often leave the body undigested, providing little benefit to the person taking them. Traditionally, medicine has been administered in liquid form because liquids are much easier for the body to absorb and utilize. Liquid vitamins do not need to be broken down by the body before the active ingredients can be released and absorbed. Supplements such as calcium and iron are notoriously difficult to absorb in tablet form, yet when given in a liquid form, balanced with complementary minerals, they are more quickly absorbed and better utilized by the body. Salus Haus, a German company, specializes in the manufacturing of a broad range of liquid supplements. From calcium/magnesium and iron supplements to multivitamins for adults and children, their unique formulating methods allow them to produce liquid supplements without fillers, chemical preservatives or artificial sweeteners. http://www.florahealth.com/flora/home/usa/healthinformation/articles/ NCArticle23.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
