However, what is it that make liquid vitamins better than their pill equivalents. The first advantage is faster absorption by the body. It is expected that the absorption rate for liquid vitamins is nearly total. The rate is about 98 percent while the rate for the pill vitamin substitutes is about 10 to 20 percent. Actually, it is claimed that 90 percent of the nutrients in a tablet or pill vitamin go directly down the toilet. The reason for the faster absorption by liquid vitamins is very simple. The stomach and intestines don't have much to do in order to break them down. Moreover, their absorption begins right in the moment they are swallowed. Unlike liquids, in the case of pills the absorption is slower, as they are protected by certain binders and preservatives which are more difficult to break down by the stomach

In
the USA, the need for dietary supplements is understood by millions. This can
be evidenced by the billions of dollars being spent on dietary supplements even
though, as stated earlier, little of the nutrients in the pill or capsules is
absorbed by the body.
This gets even worse as we grow older because we have
a lot less acid in the stomach to really break these pills and capsules.

The second advantage of liquid vitamins over pills and capsules is that they represent a real alternative for people who normally find taking pills unpleasant and difficult to swallow or digest. This is common with old people and children for whom this choice may be a relief. There is a large range of liquid vitamins destined to them, many in a variety of flavors.
The vitamins market provides many types of liquid vitamins in forms like Vitamin A, all B Vitamins, Vitamin C etc. or under the form of multi-vitamins. Liquid vitamins are also available combined with other nutrient which turns them into a multilateral source of nutrition.
