Yeah but to what degree are they absorbed and used versus just peed out? What is the mechanism by which nutrients are absorbed? Does the gut recognize a nutrient indirectly only because it comes along for the ride with XYZ plant or animal? Or does the gut directly recognize the nutrient?

- bluGill 7y agoSometimes vitamin deficiency is treated will pills. I know people who have to get vitamin shots because pills don't work for their condition. I always tell people treat vitamin deficiency with a healthy diet, if that doesn't work you have a gut problem and pills won't fix it either. I'm not a doctor, but it is a reasonable claim.
