Guest guest Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 For those with malabsorption...the water-soluble form is much better absorbed. For our kids though, at least those with " leaky gut " issues, I worry that some of the polyethylene glycol (typically not absorbed from the gut - but toxic if absorbed)...may actually get absorbed. This would then be harmful. For this reason I have not gone the water- soluble route...but this may in fact not be a concern. It was theoretical enough for me to personally avoid it though. - > Hi- > Is there any advantage to using a water soluble version of the Vitamin > E?

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Are you saying there is polyethylene glycol in vit E? Is it part of the capsule? thanks karen " claudia.morris " claudia.morris@... wrote: For those with malabsorption...the water-soluble form is much better absorbed.

Guest guest Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 Thanks ! Im sure my kid has leaky gut, so I was confused as to whether an aqueous form of E would be more or less helpful. Thank you for the explanation. Appreciate the help. > For those with malabsorption...the water-soluble form is much better > absorbed.
