I wonder if all supplements would be better absorbed if one dissolved

them before taking them. I've often wondered if those dried up, super

compressed tablets really dissolve adequately to be useful. I usually

buy capsules if supp is available that way.>>>

Good idea however not practical. Some supplements have enteric coatings on

them to protect them from the stomach acids. Others such as the fat soluble

vitamins would not dissolve in water; Vitamin C from natural sources would

be harmed from heat as would some enzymes, etc.

You'd have to look carefully at the ingredients and fillers to determine if

they would dissolve in water and not harmed or not interfere with their

desired action in the body.
