Vitamins...again...
I read that we cannot absorb vitamins that are in capsule form. Is this true?
I also read that we cannot absorb vitamins that are in the oil like D3. Is this true?
If so, I have wasted hundreds of dollars..... Also, if it is true, what are the very best ones to get?
Thanks.

We do NOT absorb vitamins in oil very well because we malabsorb fats and oil is a fat. We absorb some of it, it's just hard to say how much. We do better with DRY vitamin D, A, etc.

D2 must be converted to D3 in the body in order for the body to use it. It takes a fair amount of D2 to make a little bit of D3. I’ve seen anywhere from three units of D2 to make one unit of D3 to ten units of D2 to make one unit of D3.
