yeah, because your bodys not meant to take in nutrients in that form, even though a bottle of vitamin d says it contains 100% of ur daily need, you're really only gonna get a fraction of that due to metabolic boundaries.

the body can absorb them, just not as well as real fruits. I'm a do supp. if you have no time to treat your body the way it deserves, but supp. are a last resort and not an easy option for good health like most people think they are.

thats common knowledge, everything is when it comes to your healthcare in Islam.

When u take meds they get absorbed into your blood stream and then go through ur liver, the liver will metabolize these 'foreign' forms of the drugs so that a great percentage of them is decomposed and destroyed before it ever gets to where it needs to go.

when u get meds from the doc, its all precalculated so you end up getting exactly how much you need because they account for a certain amount of loss. But when ur self medicating, like with supps, you're not getting what you think you are.
