In this episode of The Ingredientsage Podcast, we break down the science behind liquid supplements and why they often offer superior absorption compared to traditional pills and capsules.
We explore how digestion, dissolution time, and gastrointestinal physiology influence nutrient uptake—and where solid dosage forms can fall short.
You’ll learn how liquids bypass certain breakdown steps, how particle size and solubility affect bioavailability, and which nutrients benefit most from liquid delivery systems.
We also discuss formulation challenges such as stability, preservation, dosing accuracy, and taste masking, along with regulatory and quality considerations for liquid supplements.
Whether you’re choosing supplements for personal use or formulating products for the market, this episode provides a clear, evidence-based framework for understanding when liquids truly outperform pills.
Because understanding ingredients is the first step toward building better wellness.
