Yes! Actually, bioavailability was one of the first things that I wanted to track as there are studies w/ bioavailability data but they are often conflicting - having said that is solved by giving a generic range x%-y%. Again, if we go by the label then we suffer from the issue of trusting companies - so the medium term game is to produce CoA's since these companies are so reluctant to do so.

- lumb63 4y agoAnother thing which makes bioavailability difficult is competition inhibition by other supplements, e.g. zinc and copper. There are also genetic changes between individuals that make it hard to track; e.g. impaired folate metabolism due to MTHFR C677T gene. And then there’s the “does any of that really matter with respect to any metrics I care about” question, because presumably people are supplementing with some goal in mind beyond changing levels of minerals in their blood.
