A member asked:
If i dissolve a multivitamin pill in water and then drink it, will it absorb better than just swallowing the pill?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. : Just take it. If you have a hard time swallowing it, get chewable. There are other forms, powders, but the bio-availability is the same.
