Make The Most Of Your Vitamins.
Every morning when you look down at your handful of daily capsules, tablets, and soft gels, have you ever wondered how your body processes them?
Not all vitamins are made equally. In fact, there are two key groups that one should be aware of. These are known as water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins. These particular groups of micronutrients are absorbed and stored in different ways.
Water-Soluble Vitamins (Vitamin C & B-Vitamins): These vitamins are rapidly dissolved in water, and are not stored within the body. Excess amounts of these vitamins are excreted daily, so we require a regular intake of them.
Fat-Soluble Vitamins (Vitamin A, D, E, & K): Once ingested, these vitamins are absorbed by fats, travel through the bloodstream, and are stored in the body's tissue. The body has access to these as needed.
It's important to monitor your vitamin intake to ensure optimal levels of some, without overdoing it on others. We offer a wide range of vitamins and minerals to help ensure no gaps are left in your diet on a daily basis!
