Liquid Vitamins vs Pill Form
Posted on Tuesday 1st July 2008 by Michael Manning. Hits: 41
Liquid vitamins vs. pill form is a question that has several important dimensions behind it. The dimensions are quality, convenience, absorption, and price. There are varying opinions about which approach is better in every respect but I believe it is a personal decision. From my point of view the most important is the absorption ratio. Let's begin, however, with the first and that is quality.
From a quality standpoint concerning liquid vitamins vs. pill vitamins the winner in this arena is "liquid vitamins". The rationale for this is the fact that vitamins in pill form have to go through a drying process that requires heating. The destruction of important botanical compounds from the heating process leaves little to be desired given the results that have come in from various testing protocol for vitamin potency. In 2000 I attended a conference where a keynote speech was given by the economist Paul Zane Pilzer who was giving a speech on the soon to be trillion dollar wellness industry. He spoke of the fact that, of the top 18 vitamin producers in a marketplace of thousands, only 6 lived up to their potency and composition claims on their packaging. These vitamin producers are rated by the NSF and 2/3 of the top 18 failed to measure up. The reasons for this are many but, most importantly, is the fact that pill vitamins, at this point in time, rule the marketplace.
This is mainly due to the ease with which pills can be produced. The problem is, again, the drying process, which destroys important nutrients. The shipping of plant components by rail or truck also contribute to the reduction in the potency of important compounds. Often times, by the time the harvested plants arrive at a manufacturing facility, much time has passed and nutrient decay takes place. A manufacturer also owns the fields where plants are harvested and has an onsite manufacturing facility this can minimize this problem with the "field to factory" system.
The other problem with pill vitamin quality is that they loaded with fillers that often times minimize the absorption of any remaining nutrients. Liquid vitamins or nutraceutical supplements maintain their quality with the absence of necessary fillers that pill vitamins contain. In liquid vitamins vs. pill form debate there is no question that the liquid nutrients are much more easily absorbed by the stomach and intestinal tract and assimilated more rapidly as these products are often in their natural and raw states. My suggestion is that you seriously investigate liquid nutrients or nutraceuticals and come to you own conclusion. I highly recommend liquid vitamins to those on weight loss programs due to the lack of nutrient dense foods and poor absorption rates of pill vitamins.
