That helps, though an issue is bioavailability - vitamin forms are typically harder for the body to process than the forms in food. There can also be other nutrients required together (e.g. calcium with vitamin D). Finally, I am 100% sure t

In business you follow the market; in academia you follow the grants committee. But in a start-up, you can follow what you think is important - and see if anyone needs it. Raise the flag, and see if anyone salutes. “If I had asked people
