Whether you\u2019re new to supplements or a seasoned user, the secret to maximizing the benefits of your routine lies in understanding nutrient absorption. The more your body can absorb the nutrients, the more benefits you receive! This process can also be referred to as bioavailability.<\/p>\n

Bioavailability is the rate and extent to which a substance is absorbed into the bloodstream. When it comes to nutrients, a higher bioavailability means your body can better utilize them. Unfortunately, many nutrients from oral supplements can be lost due to factors like digestion, absorption, and first-pass metabolism. In order for nutrients to have a biological effect, they need to reach your bloodstream.<\/p>\n

There are many ways to take supplements, including orally (via the mouth), transdermally (via the skin), and via intramuscular (IM) or intravenous (IV) injection. With these different ways to ingest supplements, there are also different rates of bioavailability.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Oral Supplements<\/p>\n

Most supplements are taken orally. This means that after leaving the mouth, the supplement goes through the stomach, small intestine, liver and then will enter the bloodstream. Since there are so many steps in between ingestion and the supplement entering the bloodstream, this impacts the effectiveness of the supplement. For example, in your stomach, the stomach acid breaks down the supplement, also degrading some of the nutrients. Once a supplement is broken down and enters your small intestine, it passes through the intestinal wall and then enters the liver. This is where the absorbed nutrient is processed. The liver releases the nutrient into the bloodstream for use by other tissues, although some of it is metabolized.<\/p>\n

Transdermal Supplements<\/p>\n

Transdermal supplements are designed to be absorbed through the skin, bypassing the digestive system and liver. This makes a transdermal supplement more bioavailable as it avoids the process of digestive breakdown and metabolism from the liver. Although this process can be more effective for absorbing nutrients from a supplement, the rate of absorption through the skin can vary depending on factors like skin thickness, blood flow, and the specific formulation of the supplement.<\/p>\n

Injected Supplements<\/p>\n

Injected supplements, such as intramuscular (IM) and intravenous (IV) injections, offer the most direct and rapid route for nutrient delivery. By bypassing the digestive system, these methods ensure maximum bioavailability, as nutrients are directly introduced into the bloodstream. This eliminates the potential for nutrient degradation during digestion and absorption, resulting in optimal utilization by the body. Furthermore, injected supplements can be precisely dosed and targeted to specific areas, providing a highly controlled and effective means of nutrient delivery.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n
