> I've never even thought about that issue before. It's an interesting question, and I hope someone knows the answer. I believe that food digests best if you don't consume fluids at the same time, but obviously you have to swallow a pill with some kind of fluid unless it's chewable.
> I'm not against supplements, but I avoid them because I think that ideally a proper diet can supply all the nutrients one needs, and the vitamins in food are much more absorbable than in pills.I feel the opposite way. From what I've read, the foods we eat today have far less nutrients in them than they used to (because of insufficient crop rotation). I think it's very important to eat a healthy diet but I think it's also important to take vitamins and other supplements.
