I've read that most vits get waylayed in some way by the stomach. Some pills are not even digested. So I've begun to chew, yes, thoroly masticate my multi-vits, b-150's, and the rest of the b's and minerals. Glom that I am, I've even come to like the taste, especially with day old coffee as long as the milk is fresh...but is there any chance that this is a way to better utilize the pills. They are not time release. And anyway, I'm still gonna chew em because my chewing gum loses it's flavor on the bedpost overnite. cockeyed.

Okay, I always had a question about that song.Don't people know you don't ever put your chewing gum on the bedpost?? No?
You put it on the underneath part of your nightstand next to your bed, so in the morn you just merely reach over and pull it from underneath and pop it your mouth. When you do it that way, you don't even need to brush your teeth.
Geeeez... ROFL

Dipping old gum in sugar will bring all the flavor back just like new. Used gum is free for the taking and you can borrow sugar.

C'mon, guys, I've heard horror stories about guys who clean out port-a-potties finding undigested vits. I'm still gonna chew the living hell out of my goodies; but can anyone provide info about absorption. And as the Beatles noted about Dr. Robert-a shot in the butt was better than a kick in the *rse. I mean us readers of Super market tabloids need to know real scientific stuff; we realize that some songs transcend poetry and are timeless.[ever fall asleep with a mouthfull of dentyne?] cockeyed, and I wonder why?
