The other day on this post about the vitamins I'm taking Steve from Out on the Prairie left me this comment:
If you put the vitamin in a ounce of vinegar, you can see if it
will dissolve in one hour. This is what it would do in your stomach
before being pushed through your system.If it doesn't dissolve, then
that particular brand won't do much for you.
Well you know I had to try it.
Looks pretty disgusting but now I know that my vitamins dissolve within an hour in the vinegar. Thanks for the info and the fun experiment Steve.

This is an awesome tip! I am going to do it!!
That's good to know!
That's cool. Weird maybe, but cool ;o)
I never KNEW this little tidbit. What a treasure he was to help you out.
Makes me think "The Alka Seltzer Works"
I can't remember where i had read this, but used u=it many times to test medicines and vitamins. That crazy scientist in me. Glad it worked, it can save a lot of money.
That is interesting and something I will have to try. I keep seeing an ad for something called Tespo vitamins come up on several websites I visit - it is basically a Keurig for vitamins, but the premise is that you first dissolve them in water.
to funny, i just did this after breakfast today. mine disolved in about 20 minutes and at an hour was about gone... so we are both safe. except who knows if this is the truth or not, will ask the doc if i think about it.
I had no idea about this. I'm going to give this a try when I get home.
Have a fabulous day. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. ♥♥♥
Cool Tip. I am going to try all of my vitamins now....
Eww that does look gross! Now I'm going to try it heehee. :)
Great tip ... I'll have to give it a try also! K
That's very interesting!
Interesting tip although Steve does realize that there are many more miles that the pills must traverse through your digestive track before they are ... ahem ... dispelled? Absorption of nutrients occurs there, not in the stomach. Deb xo
