Which is a Better Choice Liquid Vitamins or Bulky Pills?

By Brian Kearney


As liquid vitamins become more popular and more people are moving away from your traditional bulky pill vitamins it is important to know the facts about each one. I for one prefer a liquid vitamin or chewable vitamin over a pill vitamin but like the saying goes "to each his own."

So let's take a look at some of the differences between the two: we'll start with a vitamin in pill form. Pill vitamins for some can be hard to swallow and have a reputation for not being able to easily absorb in the ones bloodstream. In other words when you take a vitamin in pill form many of us believe that our bodies are not able to absorb the nutrients into our bloodstream. Some believe our body cannot break down this bulky pill and that's also why you may see this passed through when you urinate. This is your body's way of excreting the vitamins that it's unable to use.

Most of us do not do a lot of research when it comes to vitamins and really have no idea what putting in our bodies. Of course this could be one most important things we do for ourselves so I personally believe that time invested researching about the subject is time well invested. If you do prefer your traditional pill vitamin one piece of advice would be to look for vitamins that are not synthetic. I was approached by my doctor and was actually told to stop taking these vitamins because they can actually be doing more harm than help. Who would actually think taking vitamins could harm you?

I for one have always been told to take my vitamins exercise and do the right things for my body. For a long time I was taking a vitamin called Centrum and when confronted by my doctor I was actually told stop taking this vitamin and look for a liquid or chewable vitamin that was derived from whole foods and organic substances. Lyme Disease left me with a compromised immune system since the age 20 so it's been very easy for me to catch the common cold and it's not uncommon for me to get sick six or seven times per year which can literally reek havoc on your immune system.

Let's take a look at liquid vitamins: for the most part they taste great they're easy to swallow and your body can easily absorb the valuable nutrients into your blood stream. I currently take a liquid vitamin derived from whole foods and organic substances. In fact my vitamin gives me over 115 different fruits and vegetables with every serving I take. I found out that 90% of us do not intake the proper amount of fruits and vegetables on a daily basis that the FDA deems healthy for our longevity.

I was always told at young age to take my daily vitamin and had been using Centrum for as long as I can remember until one day I did research on the Internet and found out that many of these bulky pills were in fact synthetic vitamins and was actually told by one of my doctors to stop taking these supplements. He suggested I look for chewable or liquid vitamin with some of the ingredients that I explained above. I found a vitamin called Beyond Tangy Tangerine sold by Youngevity and quickly began researching the ingredients. To my surprise the vitamin was everything I hoped for and more.

When you drink a liquid vitamin or chew on a chewable your body is able to absorb the nutrients through the cheeks of your mouth, and through your stomach. When you swallow bulky pill your body has to break the pill down before it can enter the bloodstream and during the breakdown process you do wind up losing a lot of the valuable nutrients that were promised when purchasing a supplement.

One thing I can tell you for sure when I switched over to taking liquid vitamins I noticed a huge increase in energy, a major brain boost in mental capacity and overall clarity. My recommendation to you is if you're still using your traditional bulky pill vitamins why not do more research on the subject and give a liquid vitamin a try. Worse case scenario is you are not happy with the switch and you can always change back. If you have any questions on this subject please do not hesitate to contact me as always look forward to the opportunity helping people make educated decisions on their health and nutritional future.
