I recently watched a seminar that included a segment on how, because of all the free radicals in most vitamin supplements, 85% of the Vitamins aren't absorbed during digestion, they are just passed through like you aren't even taking them! Get your facts before taking any vitamins so you know what you are ingesting.

This may help taken from the company I with, Chews4Health, corp website. Once a person understand this it's hard to look at capsules the same. If anything, I would open capsules up and mix them in food or drink and take them.
Why a Chewable by Chews4Health:

Additional evidence on value of Chewable is here:

There's definitely a difference between supplements as regards how much your body will absorb. It may depend on the form of the nutrient itself, or the form of the supplement (powder, capsule, liquid, transdermal cream, etc).
It can even depend on how much your body can utilize in any given time frame.
For example, your body can only absorb about 1000mg. of Vitamin C per hour. So if you've got a sore throat and decide to take 2000 mg. of chewables within the hour, you're only going to get the benefit of half that at best.
It's better to space out your consumption to no more than 1000 mg. per hour (and probably best to stick to no more than 10,000 mg per day) over the course of the day. If you take too much C, you'll likely end up with very loose bowels. 
That's just one example. There are a ton of variables when working with nutritional supplements. Calcium needs to be taken with magnesium to get the best benefit of both, etc.
If you are going to spend your money on nutritional supplements (which I do, because they are quite helpful), it's good sense to be sure you are taking a high quality supplement in the right amounts so that your body can actually benefit instead of flushing it all down the toilet.

eyestar88, there are factors that affect the absorption of nutrients. One is the fact that there is a difference between those that are laboratory made and those that are organic. The other factor involved is how they are processed. Any process no matter what it's called that exposes the natural ingredients to heat from 106 deg. to 118 deg. and above will degrade or destroy them. True natural ingredients cannot be patented only synthetic ones can. Synthetic will not be absorbed as well as natural ones. And as happywife stated, some are needed in conjunction with others to get the benefits. Look up or google The Instafresh Process, it is patented and unmatched! Live Whole Foods is what i am taking, if you have any questions about them i'll be happy to pass on any information to you or anyone interested.

They don't know that. I think that it is being digested.

A high percentage of Vitamins are not absorbed. You are right about that eyestar88. But taking a Vitamin Supplement is still a good idea, especially if your diet is a bit lacking.

I had done a test on my vitamins because I had heard this as well. I had heard about putting a vitamin in a container with so much water and so much vinegar (I forget the parts), but it was supposed to resemble the acids in your stomach. I was nervous about it because I promote these vitamins, but to my delight, the vitamins did dissolve completely.
